Trip Introduction

Everest View Trek is designed for the trekkers, who prefer to sight the best of Everest Region without putting much effort as the trekkers to Everest Base Camp Trek did. However, it does not mean the trek is considered easy. Trekkers have to walk at least 5-6 hours a day for a week, which is surely a demanding task for the beginners.

The Trek starts with the thrilling Trans Himalayan flight to Lukla, trekkers walk through the deep Dudh Koshi River Valley that stretches through the famous Sagarmatha National Park. Enjoy the floral diversity of the park and if you are lucky enough you will see the endangered highland species of mammals and birds.

The Tengboche and Namche offer you the firsthand experience of unique Sherpa culture. The highland monasteries, long line of sacred mani-walls and the colorful prayer flags fluttering the high skies demonstrate pious Buddhist culture of the region. Eventually, the views of Himalayan giants so close and magnificent will continuously mesmerize you. The Himalayan peaks that greet trekkers during the Everest Luxury Trek include Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Pumori and Ama Damlam among others.

The local Sherpa guides who the place better than anyone else and the exceedingly welcoming Sherpa hospitality will make your Everest Luxury Trek a trip of a lifetime.

In addition, the best alternative could be Everest Luxury Trek as well as Everest Heli Tour. If you are not satisfied with this itinerary or if you want to customize this package in your timeline or budget, then you could contact us, or email to [email protected]

Best time to travel

Good For Almost All The Year

Physical Condition and requirement

Walking in higher altitudes is more physically demanding than walking in the lower a , however, if we are in excellent health with average physical fitness, have a positive attitude, self confidence and strong determination, we can accomplish the trek successfully. Exercising and jogging regularly for some weeks prior to the trip is good idea to enhance our strength and stability. Past hiking experience would be an asset but no technical skill is required for this trip. It is important that we consult with our doctor before we decide and set up for the Everest Base camp trek. Participants with pre-existing medical conditions such as heart, lung, and blood diseases should inform Treks Planner Nepal before booking the trek.
