A CLASSIC EVEREST TREK

Nepal, the fabled Himalayan kingdom. This trek is in the Khumbu region of Northeastern Nepal, known worldwide for its iconic peaks including Mount Everest. This is a classic 3 week Everest trek with all the amenities to keep you at your best while you experience the highest mountains on Earth.

Sherpa-led, interact with the fascinating local people with a local guide to introduce you and bridge the cultural gap into the vast and intricate world of Sherpa and Nepalese culture.

Lodge-based, you’ll trek on nice trails and stay in lodges at night with hot meals. October is a spectacular month. Why do we like it best for an Everest base camp trek? Best mountain views with clear and crisp weather, and time to visit with Sherpas in their homes.

LEADERSHIP

A qualified Sherpa guide, Pemba Rita Sherpa, will be leading this trip working alongside his team of top notch local guides and staff.

LOGISTICS

We will trek with porter support to Everest base camp. This is a lodge-based trek, we sleep in beds each night and order from a menu for three meals a day.

TRUST

Trekking at 5000+ meters is no place to be short on resources. We make the proper advance preparations to ensure that our team will be properly cared for, from airport to summit to airport.
