Trip Summary:

It was inevitable that the resourceful Sherpa people would upgrade the traditional mountain lodge to near hotel standard, providing a service and quality of experience that would attract those who really don’t want to rough it to be amongst the most spectacular and famous mountains in the world. In stunning locations, these new lodges are beautifully designed, combining traditional stone and wood-carving crafts with excellent facilities - en-suite bathrooms at 13,000ft. The trek itself takes a very leisurely pace (with side options to stimulate the most eager clients) to the most beautiful unspoilt valleys and viewpoints of the Everest foothills. Up the wonderful Dudh Kosi valley, we visit the famous Namche Bazaar market, on the way to our closest view of Everest (of many) from Thyangboche monastery, the most important in Khumbu. We visit real Sherpa villages like Khumjung with its stunning view of Ama Dablam, on the way to the gorgeous Nangpo valley, entirely unspoilt, off the tourist trail and rich with wildlife, and the stunningly located monasteries of Mende and Thame.

The Everest Base Camp trek, a very well known mountain trek, starts at the upper Phakding and follows the Dudh Kosi valley which climbs up to the Sherpa capital of Namche, a bustling bazaar that’s a junction for trekkers, the local Sherpa and expeditions en route to the mighty Mt. Everest. All along this part of the trail, villages are interspersed with magnificent forests of rhododendron, magnolia and giant firs. In both the early autumn and late spring, the flowers on this portion of the trek make it the kind of walk you will remember for a long, long time. We then follow the glacier, first to Lobuche, a vantage point for some spectacular views of the Ama Dablam, Taweche and other peaks and then hike to Gorakshep for a breather. We also have the opportunity to ascend Kalapathar from where we can get some awesome views of the Himalayan giants which literally numb your senses with breathless admiration that beholds the eye; and makes up for the lung-bursting climb that took you up there. You soon realize it was absolutely worth it. This also includes fantastic views of the south west face of the colossal Mt. Everest. We then trek down to Everest Base Camp at the foot of the Khumbu ice fall before finally making our way back down to Lukla.
