Trek Overview

The Everest Base Camp Trek is a legendary journey that takes you through the heart of the Khumbu region, home to the mighty Mount Everest. Starting from Lukla, this trek follows in the footsteps of legendary mountaineers, winding through charming Sherpa villages, ancient monasteries, and dramatic suspension bridges spanning deep gorges.

As you ascend through diverse landscapes, from lush rhododendron forests to stark alpine terrain, you'll witness the dramatic transformation of the environment. The trek offers unparalleled views of the world's highest peaks, including Mount Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and the distinctive Ama Dablam.
