Day 01: Arrival in Kathmandu and getting settled

5* Accommodation Included

Day 02: Flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, trek to Phakding
After landing in Lukla’s tiny airport, embark on a gentle, 3 hour hike to Phakding. The mainly downhill trek leads you through colourful and fragrant forests of pine, magnolia and rhododendron, past several small Buddhist settlements with their pearl white stupas, ornate prayer wheels, piles of mani stones and colourful flags flapping in the breeze. Soak up the intoxicating beauty of the valley as you cross the swirling ice-water of the Dudh Kosi or ‘Milk River’ by suspension bridge, before arriving in the small village Phakding, where you lodge tonight.
Elevation: From 1300 metres to 2800 metres to 2656 metres |
Lukla Flight, Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 03: Trek From Phakding to Namche Bazaar
After leaving Phakding, we will cross the same river several times over high suspension bridges. It helps to avoid thinking about Indiana Jones movies here! Soon, we’ll pass Monjo and enter the Sagarmatha National Park. Once inside the Park the trail becomes steep, rising to Namche. Namche Bazaar is the chief trading village for the region, and an excellent place to find a few last Western luxuries, including Illy coffee and some amazing brownies! Better still, on a clear day you can see Everest itself from here.
Elevation: From 2656 metres to 3450 metres.
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 04: Acclimatization Day at Namche Bazaar
Today we take a day off from our journey to become acclimatised and further explore Namche Bazaar and the surrounding area. With its collection of artefacts, photos and archives chronicling Sherpa Everest climbing expeditions, a trip to the Sherwi Khangba Centre provides a fascinating insight into the history of the Sherpa culture in the Everest region. The Khumbu International Library, located within the Centre, features an ever expanding selection of books, magazines and videos dedicated to every aspect of Nepalese mountain life from flora and fauna to agricultural techniques. Sagarmatha National Park Headquarters offers an interesting display of photos, memorabilia and information about the park and the spectacular views of the snow-swept ridges of Ama Dablam, Kwangde, Thamserku and Kangtega are not to be missed.
Elevation: 3450 metres | Highest point: 3880 metres
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 05: From Namche Bazaar to Tengboche
We’ll continue to follow the valley above the Dudh Koshi, and be treated to amazing views of Everest, as well as Lhotse, Nuptse and Ama Dablam along the way. We’ll cross another high bridge at the village of Phunki Tenga, where we will stop for lunch. After a brief rest, we have a steep climb to Tengboche, the site of the largest gompa (Buddhist monastery) in the region.
Elevation: From 3450 metres to 3867
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 06: From Tengboche to Pheriche
Day six takes us back down into the forest, and across the Imja Khola. Once across, we’ll climb up to Pangboche village and more stunning views of what seems like the entire Himalaya. We’ll continue upwards to the HRA’s first aid post at Pheriche, and be able to attend a lecture on avoiding altitude sickness (which we really do advise you to attend).
Elevation: From 3867 metres to 4252 metres
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 07: Acclimatisation Day at Pheriche
In order to help with your acclimatisation and prepare you for the higher portions of the trek, we will arrange an excursion to see Tshola Lake and the Tawache and Cholatse Walls. The short trek will take us up the ridge over Dingboche, where we’ll be able to see the Imja Valley spread beneath us, and the south face of Lhotse in the distance.
Elevation: 4252 metres
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 08: From Pheriche to Lobuche
Today we begin the main trek again, climbing the steep Khumbu Glacier with Tawache and Cholatse peaks overhead. The boulder-strewn terminal moraine makes interesting and rugged terrain, and the top of the glacier is marked with numerous cairns, left to mark the passage of the Sherpas and climbers who have died conquering Everest. At the glacier’s top, the path levels out to a very gentle climb to Lobuche.
Elevation: From 4252 metres to 4930 metres.
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included

Day 09: From Lobuche to Everest Base Camp, descent to Gorak Shep
The trail now leads along the Khumbu Glacier, providing excellent vistas of the Himalayan peaks nearby. Lunch is at Gorak Shep, and then we are back on the trail for a few hours until we reach Everest Base Camp. We will pass lesser glaciers, ice pinnacles, and the sometimes dangerous crevasses of the Khumbu along the way. The return trip to Gorak Shep is made along a higher path overlooking the Khumbu icefall and the South Col route.
Elevation: From 4930 metres to 5164 metres | Highest point: 5364 metres (Everest Base Camp)
Accommodation, Guide and Porters Included
