Other departure dates are available, please call our office.

The itinerary is a guide to the trek and may change at any time due to weather, trail conditions or other reasons. Our guide will always make a final decision after assessing the situation with our Nepali crew and the group members.
This trek is designed to fulfill the dream of many trekkers to experience the historic route to the base of the world's highest mountain.

Our carefully devised itinerary provides a fine opportunity to visit either the Base Camp or the nearby peak of Kala Pattar (5545m), where uninterrupted views of Everest are gained.

We trek the more remote trails along the far side of the Khumbu Valley, savoring the high mountain views from our selected campsites in the company of our Sherpa guides, whose knowledge and passion for trekking in the Khumbu add a further dimension to this memorable trek.
