There are many beautiful trails which offer great adventure of hiking, trekking in Nepal. The Everest Base Camp trek is the most famous which can be done from 12 to 13 days in the short to 16-18 days by extending or combining the high passes or the valleys of nearby areas. No matter how long or short is your journey in the foothills of Mt. Everest, it is always a complete package of nature, culture and adventure! Therefore you can proudly say that your trek is being run in that route which has no real match in the whole world. On this travel any itinerary you may have you are sure to explore Namche Bazaar as well as the nearby villages that are famous as the heartland of Sherpa people such as Khumjung, Khunde, Tyangboche etc. are culturally highly focal points. All our travel itineraries possess an extra day at Namche that helps to deal with the possible difficulty along with the changing elevations and provides time to ramble into the above said villages and who knows to meet a Sherpa family there at home or in the potato field and have a chit chat! The trek begins after landing at Lukla’s ‘Tenzing-Hillary airport’ (2840 meters) describe by many as one of the most notorious airstrip in the world. We begin the trek passing through the town of Lukla and soon meeting to the Dudh Koshi (River) bank, rotating Mani wheels, crossing suspension bridges and chatting with fellow trekkers and porters. The Dingboche village is another popular stopover on this Everest Base Camp trek and boomed town comparing to the villages passed ahead din the higher elevations like Lobuche, Gorakshep etc. At Namche there are probably the best coffee shops in the Himalayas, bakery outlets, restaurants and even a disco club and pool houses, among others. Journey advances having experienced the local culture and meeting the interesting Sherpa villages with iconic monasteries deeply respected such as in Tyangboche, Khumjung, Upper Pangboche etc. The final destination of this journey is the Kalapatthar Ri with 5623 m/18443 ft elevation, the closest best place to view Mt. Everest without technical climbing. Then return to Lukla before fly back to Kathmandu.
