On the first day of your journey, you will arrive at the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu. Our team will be at Tribhuvan International Airport to welcome you. From there, we’ll arrange a comfortable transfer to the hotel in a private tourist vehicle. This day does not include physically challenging activities. If time allows, you can roam around the marketplace of Kathmandu, especially around Thamel. Overnight at a 3-star hotel in Thamel.

After breakfast, you will fly from Kathmandu or Ramechhap airport to Lukla on this day. The flight from Kathmandu is going to take 35 minutes. Enjoy a scenic view via plane. Likewise, the roadway will take 4 to 5 hours to reach Ramechhap from Kathmandu. From there, you will take a 20-minute flight to Lukla.

Once you land at Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla, the Trek officially begins. We will hike toward Phakding, situated at an elevation of 2,610 meters. The trail covers approximately 7.2 km and is mostly downhill, with a few gentle ups and downs. You’ll spend the night at a tea house or a lodge in Phakding to allow your body to adjust.

On the 2nd day, after breakfast, you will begin your Trek to Namche Bazaar, starting from Phakding at 8 a.m. The Trek continues through beautiful pine forests alongside the Dudh Koshi River, with stunning views of Mount Thamserku along the way. You’ll pass through small villages like Toktok and Benkar before reaching Monjo, the official entry point of Sagarmatha National Park.

The real challenge begins after crossing the Hillary Suspension Bridge. From there, the trail climbs steeply as you walk past the junction of the Dudh Koshi and Bhote Koshi Rivers. Eventually, you’ll reach Namche Bazaar, where the first views of Mount Everest (8,848.86m), Mount Lhotse (8,516m), and Mount Nuptse (7,861m) welcome you. Overnight at a tea house or lodge in Namche Bazar.

The fourth day is the acclimatization day at Namche. Acclimatization gives your body time to adjust to the thinner air and higher elevation. To get the most out of the day, we’ll hike up to Hotel Everest View, a well-known viewpoint that offers a stunning panorama of the Himalayas. The walk takes about two hours and rewards you with a perfect shot of Mount Everest.

You’ll also get incredible views of nearby peaks like Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and Nuptse. You will enjoy breakfast, lunch, and dinner at a tea house or lodge where you’re staying in Namche.

Today, after breakfast, you will trek to Tengboche, located at an altitude of 3,860m (12,664ft), also home to the renowned Tengboche Monastery. The trail begins with a steady climb along the ridge, offering sweeping views of Kantega, Kusum Kangri, and Thamserku. As you follow the path around a side ridge, majestic peaks like Sagarmatha, Tawache, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, and Lhotse come into full view.

After a while, you’ll descend toward the village of Trashinga and continue down to the banks of the Dudh Koshi River. The climb from here to Tengboche starts steep and demanding, but it gradually becomes gentler as you walk through peaceful pine and rhododendron forests. Soon after, you will reach the stone gate that marks the entrance to Tengboche. Tengboche is famous for its stunning mountain panorama and the Tengboche Monastery. Overnight at the Tea house or the Lodge at Tingboch

On day 6,  early in the morning, we’ll visit the beautiful Tengboche Monastery to offer prayers and take a short tour around the stupa. After a peaceful start, we will begin our journey to Dingboche at 8:00 a.m., following the trail that leads through the scenic Imja and Chhukhung valleys.

Most of the day involves a gradual uphill climb, surrounded by stunning views of towering peaks and thick forests. As we continue, the landscape begins to open into alpine meadows. After a final stretch across these high-altitude plains, we’ll reach the quiet village of Dingboche, our resting point for the night.

You will acclimate at Dingboche on this day. Resting in Dingboche will provide you with opportunities to capture some of the best photos of the Himalayas, as well as the habitats nearby. We will also hike to the Dingboche viewpoint to make the most of the day. Hike starts at 8 a.m.

The highest elevation for the day is 5,083m/16,676ft at the Dingboche View Point. You will spend the night at a teahouse or lodge in Dingboche.

After a peaceful stay in Dingboche, we begin our Trek to Lobuche. The day starts with a steady climb up the ridge. We’ll pass through the wide glacial valley of Khumbu Khola and soon arrive at the small village of Dughla (also called Thukla). From here, you’ll get fantastic views of Taboche, Cholatse, Pumori, and Lobuche Peak.

Shortly after Dughla, we will face a challenging climb to Thukla Pass (4,830m), where we’ll take a break. At the top of the pass, you’ll come across the emotional Everest Memorial, where you will honor climbers and Sherpas who lost their lives on Everest.

After the pass, the trail becomes simple again as we move toward the remote settlement of Lobuche. After a few more hours of trekking, we’ll reach Lobuche. Final overnight stop before heading to Everest Base Camp

Hike begins at 8 a.m. The hike from Lobuche to Gorakshep covers just 4.4 kilometers, but don’t let the short distance fool you. Due to the high altitude and rugged terrain, it typically takes around 3 to 4 hours to reach there. The trail isn’t well-defined in some areas, so we’ll carefully make our way over loose rocks and uneven ground until we reach the small settlement of Gorakshep.

Once we arrive, we’ll pause for a quick lunch break and rest up before pushing onward. After regaining some strength, we’ll begin the second leg of the day, which is a hike to Everest Base Camp. The route winds through rocky dunes, glacial moraines, and steep climbs. It takes another three hours or so of steady hiking on jagged trails before we reach the legendary Everest Base Camp.

As you arrive, you’ll be greeted with unforgettable views of Mount Everest, along with surrounding giants like Ama Dablam, Nuptse, and Cho Oyu. You’ll also get a close-up look at the Khumbu Glacier and possibly even spot some glacial lakes. After soaking in the atmosphere and snapping some photos, we’ll retrace our steps back to Gorakshep, where we’ll spend the night at a local tea house or lodge.

You will hike in the morning to Kala Pathar, located at an elevation of 5,555m (18,225ft), which is higher than Everest Base Camp. Kala Pathar is best known as a viewpoint situated near Everest Base Camp (EBC), but at a higher elevation than the base camp itself. You will begin the journey at 4:00 a.m. to capture a stunning view of the sunrise.

The trekking distance you’ll cover on this day is 9.5 km/ 5.9 miles. You will trek for 5 hours. You can enjoy breakfast and lunch at each stop when you rest. We will stay the night at a tea house or lodge at Lobuche.

On Day 11, we’ll leave Lobuche and begin our Trek toward Lobuche Peak Base Camp or High Camp. From the main Everest Base Camp trail, we take a turn and start a steady ascent toward Lobuche High Camp. The path gets steeper as we move forward, and the trail becomes more demanding. We’ll navigate rugged terrain and narrow snowy sections. We’ll switch to crampons for better grip and safety on the icy slope as the snow cover thickens,

To climb the final stretch, we’ll use an ice axe while ascending a small ice cliff and crossing jagged, snow-laced trails. After a physically challenging push, we’ll arrive at Lobuche High Camp, sitting at an elevation of 5,400 meters. To conserve energy for the summit attempt, we’ll stop here for the day and settle into high camp.

The summit of Lobuche Peak is finally here. We’ll begin early in the morning from Lobuche High Camp, climbing steadily along the snow-covered route toward the top of Lobuche East Peak. The trail is steep and challenging, and it’ll take about 8 to 9 hours in total. The moment we reach the summit of Lobuche, everything becomes worthwhile. Jaw-dropping views of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and many more Himalayan giants will surround you. It’s one of those rare, unforgettable moments that make the entire journey feel magical.

After spending some time at the top, taking in the silence, the views, and the sense of achievement, we’ll carefully descend back to High Camp. The way down is gentler. We’ll settle back in at the camp for a rest and reflect on one of the most rewarding days of the entire Trek.

You will spend the 13th day at the same tented camp as the previous day, at Lobuche High Camp, as part of the contingency day, in case the weather isn’t favorable for climbing or descent.

This extra day also serves as an essential acclimatization and rest day. You’ll have time to relax, chat with fellow climbers, and take in the stunning high-altitude surroundings. Enjoy a hearty breakfast and lunch at the camp, and give your body the recovery it deserves after the previous day’s summit push. We’ll spend the night here again, recharging and ready for the trail ahead.

After an early breakfast, we’ll begin our descent from Lobuche High Camp toward the peaceful Sherpa village of Pangboche. The trail retraces familiar paths through Lobuche and Pheriche. Along the way, we’ll pass by remarkable sites like the Khumbu Glacier and the serene Tengboche Monastery.

Though going downhill is easier on the lungs, your legs may still feel the fatigue of recent climbs. Take your time and enjoy the more relaxed pace. By late afternoon, we’ll arrive at the welcoming village of Pangboche, where we’ll rest for the night in a cozy teahouse surrounded by breathtaking mountain views.

You will begin your Trek to Namche Bazaar from Pangboche at 8 a.m. After having breakfast in Pangboche, you will pass through the homes of monasteries in the Khumbu region, including Debuche and Tengboche. There are plenty of Rhododendron and pine forests along the way on this day.

After trekking 12.6 km/7.8 miles, you will finally reach the Sherpa capital, Namche Bazaar. The Trek will take 6 hours to complete. The day’s highest elevation is 3,930 m/12,894 ft at Pangboche. You will spend the night at a tea house or a lodge in Namche Bazaar.

You will begin your journey at 7:00 a.m. with a scenic 35-minute flight from Lukla to Kathmandu, depending on air traffic and weather. During the peak trekking season, you might fly to Ramechhap (Manthali Airport) instead, followed by a 5 to 6-hour drive back to Kathmandu. Either way, this is the final stretch of your mountain adventure.

Once you return to Thamel, you’ll check into a comfortable 3-star hotel. The rest of the day is yours to unwind. You can stroll through Thamel’s vibrant streets, shop for souvenirs, or relax before gathering for a celebratory dinner.

After breakfast at the hotel, it’s time to say goodbye. Our representative will escort you to Tribhuvan International Airport for your final departure.
