Overview

Everest Base Camp has multiple routes but none are as iconic as the Classic Everest Base Camp Trek. The very first successful ascent to the majestic Mount Everest in 1953 by Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hilllary began on this path. Cementing this trail’s legendary status in the history books.

Our 21 days adventure begins in Kathmandu by road to Jiri and onward to Junbesi. Trekking through this revered region, known as a Mecca for mountaineers and climbers, offers a larger-than-life experience.

Following an eight-hour scenic drive from Kathmandu, we arrive at Jiri, the traditional starting point of the trek. However, we drive a bit more up to Junbesi. The route traverses through the lesser-developed Solu region of the Everest area, in contrast to the more bustling northern Khumbu region. This allows trekkers to immerse themselves in the rich traditional culture and interact with local communities.

As we trek, we pass through numerous villages inhabited by various ethnic groups, including Tamang, Jirel, Rai, Brahmin, Chettri, and, of course, the Sherpa people. The trail involves undulating terrain, with ample amenities such as tea houses and suitable campsites available in most villages. This trek encompasses several renowned places, including Jiri, Lukla, Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Gokyo Lake, Gokyo Ri, Cho La Pass, Kala Patthar, and Everest Base Camp. Completing this trek signifies that you have experienced all that Solukhumbu has to offer.

Additional Information

Details

Physical Fitness

  • Everest Base Camp trek is physically demanding, involving long hours of walking at high altitudes. Prioritize cardiovascular fitness, strength, and endurance in your training routine.
  • Consult with a healthcare professional before starting any fitness program, especially if you have pre-existing health conditions.

 

Altitude Sickness 

  • Understand the symptoms of altitude sickness (acute mountain sickness - AMS) and be aware of the risks associated with ascending to high altitudes.
  • Acclimatization is crucial for your body to adjust to the increasing altitude.
  • Headache, vomiting, nausea, dizziness, and shortness of breath are common symptoms of altitude-related sickness. If you notice any of the signs, consult your guide and follow their directions.
  • When suffering from AMS, do not continue the trek; instead, stay at the same location or move to lower elevations.

 

Accommodations

  • Familiarize yourself with the teahouse accommodation system along the trail. These are basic lodges that provide meals and shelter.
  • The rooms are primarily twin-sharing with attached bathrooms up until Namche; as we keep ascending, it will be on a shared basis.

 

Connectivity

  • Be aware that internet connectivity is limited, and you may not have access to it in certain areas.
  • Mobile Networks are unreliable.

 

Environment Considerations

  • Respect local customs and the environment. Follow the principles of "Leave No Trace" and contribute to responsible tourism.
  • Bring a refillable water bottle and purification tablets to reduce plastic waste.

 

Weather Condition

  • The best times to trek to Everest base camp are autumn (mid-September to November) and spring (March to early June). Temperature varies from 4°C (39°F) to -12°C (10.4°F) during March and early June to 8°C (46.4°F) average during the peak seasons of September and November.
  • Trek in the favorable seasons and keep away from the rainy season (July and August). In the cold months of January and February, the temperature can drop to -20°C (-4°F) and be a little harsh in the mountains.
  • Traveling during bad weather conditions is the worst scenario possible, so always read the weather forecast or travel during peak seasons.

Trekking Permits and Documents 

Permits

  • Khumbu Rural Municipality Permit - USD 20 (For Everyone)
  • Sagarmatha National Park Permit - USD 15 (SAARC), USD 30 (Foreign Nationals)

Documents

  • Two passport-sized photos
  • A copy of international flight ticket
  • A copy of travel insurance 

 

EBC Trek Distance, Length and Elevation

Trek Distance

  • The typical Everest Base Camp trek from Lukla to EBC and back is 130 km long – 65 km each way. 

Trek Length

  • 17 Days Trek overall
  • 2 Nights at Kathmandu

Elevations

The elevation factor poses a significant challenge throughout the trek, beginning at Lukla airport with an altitude exceeding 2,800m. Since most individuals aren't accustomed to such heights, the journey incorporates acclimatization days. The ascent to Everest Base Camp is deliberately slow to allow for acclimatization and prioritize safety over speed.

 

Typically, daily elevation gains will fall within the 400-800m range. After days with substantial gains and higher altitudes, there's a pattern of including acclimatization days. These days serve a dual purpose, providing time for sightseeing and exploring the surrounding areas.

Freqeuntly Asked Questionnaire

Everest Base Camp is the starting point for climbers attempting to reach the summit of Mount Everest. It is located at an altitude of 5,364 meters (17,598 feet) in the Khumbu region of Nepal.

The best time to trek to Everest Base Camp is during the pre-monsoon (spring) season (March to early June) and post-monsoon (autumn) season (Mid September to November) when the weather is relatively stable, and the skies are clear.

You will need two main permits: the Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit and the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality Entry Permit. Additionally, if you are flying to Lukla, you will need a TIMS (Trekkers’ Information Management System) card.

The trek is challenging, and a good level of physical fitness is required. Regular cardiovascular exercises and strength training are recommended to prepare for the altitude and the demanding terrain.

Altitude sickness is a condition that occurs at higher elevations due to a decrease in the amount of oxygen. To prevent altitude sickness, it's essential to acclimatize properly, stay hydrated, and ascend gradually. If symptoms persist, descending to a lower altitude is crucial.

Essential items include sturdy trekking boots, warm clothing, a good backpack, a sleeping bag, and a first aid kit. It's essential to pack light but be prepared for changing weather conditions.

The temperature rating of the ISO-certified sleeping bag we lend is -10°C (14°F) comfort level.

We recommend having cash of around USD 15-20; it should suffice for any additional costs you may need for a day.
