Everest Base Camp Trek - 11 days
This superb trek begins with a dramatic mountain flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, the starting point of the trek. Within two days you reach Namche Bazaar, the capital of Khumbu region and acclimatization point for two nights. En route to Everest you can visit one of the oldest Buddhist monasteries at Pangboche, and Thyangboche with an impressive backdrop of Everest and Ama Dablam. From here you walk along trails lined with main walls and up through rhododendron forests before eventually emerging above the tree line into yak pasture en route to Everest Base camp. We include a side trip to Kala Patthar (5545m), which offers unrivalled views of Mt Everest.
