Overview of Everest Base Camp Trek
The definitive Himalayan trek to the foot of Mount Everest (8,848.86m), summiting Kala Patthar for sunrise views.
Trek through legendary Sherpa homelands, visit the spiritual Tengboche Monastery, and stand at the base camp of the world's highest peak surrounded by the dramatic Khumbu Icefall.
The 14-day Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the world's most iconic trekking journeys. Beginning with an exhilarating scenic flight into Lukla's Tenzing-Hillary Airport, the trail follows the roaring Dudh Koshi river up into Sagarmatha National Park. You will spend acclimatization days in the bustling mountain amphitheater of Namche Bazaar and Dingboche before reaching Everest Base Camp (5,364m) and climbing Kala Patthar (5,545m) for panoramic sunrise views of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Pumori.
