Overview of Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek
Trek to the foot of the Matterhorn of the Himalayas (Ama Dablam, 6,812m), visiting Pangboche, Phortse, and ancient Sherpa monasteries.
Known as one of the world's most beautiful mountains, Ama Dablam dominates the Khumbu skyline. This dedicated 12-day trek branches away from the crowded EBC route at Pangboche to climb directly onto the yak pastures of Ama Dablam Base Camp (4,600m). Watch international mountaineers tackle the vertical granite ridges and spend peaceful nights in traditional stone villages.
Moderately paced with pristine cultural immersion in Phortse, the village renowned for producing more Everest summit Sherpas than anywhere on Earth.
