EVEREST VIEW TREK
4
A hike through the Khumbu Valley, the valley which is home to the highest mountain in the world. On the trek, we take the traditional route which goes up to the Everest Base camp. We fly into the valley at Lukla and via Namche hike up to Tengboche, home to the biggest monastery in the region which also offers a spectacular view of Everest, Lhotse, Ama Dablam and other prominent peaks of the Khumbu. This short trek is the best way for you to explore the famed valley as well as view Everest without the rigours of going up to base camp over 16 days.
Please Note: From 2024, we are offering the departure where you can purchase your own food at tea-houses and hence it is not a part of our package. The pricing too reflects this change in offering.

What to expect
Any trip rated as a 'Beginner Trek' is an ideal first step into the world of trekking in the Himalaya. The trips are short - generally under a week - in moderate altitudes with gradual altitude gain. A typical day will involve 4-5hrs of hiking on mountainous trails with an odd day over 6hrs. Most beginner treks in the Indian Himalaya are camping trips where overnight accommodation will be in tents. You will be accompanied by our camping and kitchen staff throughout the trip. In Nepal, all our stay and accommodation on the trail will be in tea-houses. This trek suits individuals looking for their maiden trek in the Himalayas or families which want to introduce their young ones to trekking.
Internal Flights: Please note that poor weather can cause delays on the flights on Kathmandu-Lukla sector. At the end of the trip you should book the afternoon flights out from Kathmandu which gives you a day against delay on the flight back from Lukla. Helicopters can sometimes fly when the scheduled fixed wing aircraft cannot. If your group is offered the opportunity to use a chartered helicopter, either flying up to Lukla or back to Kathmandu, the cost will be shared between those choosing to take this option. In the extremely unlikely event that flight cancellations cause you to miss your homeward international flight, we will render all assistance, but cannot be held liable for any extra costs incurred. You could explore having an insurance for your flight cancellations.
