Overview

Trekking through the Himalayas is a spiritual experience. To be spiritual is to adapt to the nature to unite yourself with it. This trek offers a wonderful combination of culture, nature and landscape into an experience of a lifetime. But the rewards of this trek must be earned as it climbs over 20,000 feet and loses over 7,000 feet of elevation over 75+ miles over the course of the trek, at high altitudes.

Trip highlights:

- Trekking to the base of the world's tallest mountain.

- Taking in sweeping views some of world's tallest peaks like Lhotse, Nuptse, Pumori.

- Getting a close look at the Khumbu Glacier, world’s highest glacier.

- Opportunity to trek up to Kalapathar, one of the most beautiful viewpoints in the region with views of 8000 meter peaks like Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu, Cho-Oyu.

- A visit to one of the oldest and biggest Buddhist monasteries, Tengboche monastery.

- Spending a day at Namche Bazar, the Sherpa capital.

- Experiencing the local culture and cuisine at the tea houses along your trek.
