Opened from 1953, the Everest base camp or simply known as Southern Base Camp among the mountaineers is located at the 5,364 m altitude. This trek is equally exciting with a rare thrill of flying between the high hills to Lukla which opens the gate to a promised land with picturesque views of many surrounding peaks. You will ascend for short while towards Phakding for the first stop.

The following day you will take a wonderful trek to Namche Bazaar – through the trail that passes through numerous forest, farmlands and beautiful Sherpa villages. Namche is the tourist and administrative hub at this region. Hiking around the area there are several villages, especially in Syangboche (3700m) which have their own stories and legends to tell, on the laps of the magnificent mountainous belt of Kangtega, Ama Dablam, Island peak, Nuptse and Lhotse.

On the door step of your lodge you can see the smiling Mt. Everest greeting you and your loved ones. Lots of children do not get chances to be so near to the highest peak in the world and for the old age people, this might be the only chance to get their wishes fulfilled.

The two-week trek is designed to give you in a short period an experience of the Annapurna region in all its variety. It begins in the lush, green valley around Besishahar with a gradual ascent along a rocky trail that follows the course of the Marsyandi River up to the village of Tal at an elevation of 1675m. This is a comparatively easy introduction to the area. The trek is suitable for anyone looking for an adventurous Himalayan experience that is not too taxing on the feet or the lungs. After your first overnight stop, the trail continues along a broad, open valley and up through the traditional stone-built villages of Dharapani and Bargarchhap, and along fast flowing river paths and across pine-forested slopes before the country changes, becoming the typical dry and rocky open terrain of the high plateau around Jomsom, where the trek ends.

Breathtaking views of the Himalayas form a constantly changing backdrop to the interesting little villages, temples and natural wonders along the way. Every day of your trip offers up something special and fascinating, such as the sacred Hindu temple at Muktinath, the hot springs of Chame, the several rope bridge river crossings, which are always a thrilling challenge to the trekker used to more solid ground underfoot, and of course the gradual change in climate as you climb higher into the mountains. Here you will experience the magnificent desolation of the Thorung La pass, whose highest point at 5416m is marked by a traditional chorten or shrine, bedecked by prayer flags that make a brightly colored beacon in the otherwise untouched landscape of rock and ice.
