Overview

Embark on an iconic journey tracing the footsteps of legendary mountaineers Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay with our world-renowned trekking route to Everest Base Camp. Beginning in the vibrant city of Kathmandu, immerse yourself in the cultural tapestry of the valley, exploring its UNESCO World Heritage Sites and bustling markets.

Our adventure commences with a picturesque drive to Jiri, a charming market town nestled in a scenic valley, marking the gateway to the Solu-Khumbu region. From here, the trail winds eastward through fertile foothills and high passes, revealing breathtaking vistas of sacred mountains and valleys revered by the Sherpa people.

As we ascend, passing through traditional Sherpa villages and majestic Buddhist monasteries, the landscape transforms into the alpine wilderness of the Khumbu. En route to Everest Base Camp, we pause at Namche Bazaar, a plateaued settlement offering mesmerizing panoramas of the surrounding peaks.

Continuing our pilgrimage, we pay homage to the regal Tangboche monastery, a cherished sanctuary amidst towering summits. The terrain becomes progressively rugged, with sparse vegetation, as we approach the pinnacle of our journey: Base Camp and the awe-inspiring viewpoint of Kala Pattar.

Bask in the glory of Everest and the Himalayan Range, savoring the sense of accomplishment before retracing our steps to Namche Bazaar and concluding our trek with a scenic flight from Lukla. Back in Kathmandu, indulge in further exploration of the city's enchanting mysteries and vibrant markets, collecting souvenirs and memories to cherish.

With regular departure dates from Kathmandu and customizable treks tailored to your preferences, our Jiri to Everest Base Camp expedition promises an unforgettable adventure. Whether you seek the thrill of high-altitude trekking or wish to extend your exploration of the Everest region, join us for an unforgettable journey amidst the world's most revered peaks.
