Everest Region Treks are treks through the Khumbu region of Nepal, home to the country’s most famous trekking adventures, breathtaking Himalayan scenery, legendary Sherpa villages. Our treks include the world known Everest Base Camp Trek, the stunning Gokyo Lakes Trek, and challenging high altitude routes over the Kongma La, Cho La, and Renjo La passes, with spectacular views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, and Cho Oyu. Every trek starts and ends in Kathmandu, includes a flight to Lukla and an experienced trekking guide, and passes through Sagarmatha National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Choose the trek that fits your time and fitness. The 10 day Everest View Trek with Mani Rimdu Festival is timed with the festival at Tengboche Monastery and does not go to base camp. The 13 day Gokyo Lake Trek climbs Gokyo Ri and returns over Renjo La Pass. For Everest Base Camp, choose a 15 day small group trek, a 16 day private trek with an extra day on the way down, or a 17 day trek with the Gokyo Lakes over Cho La Pass. For a serious challenge, the 20 day Everest Three Passes Trek crosses all three high passes.
We give you clear advice and honest information before you book, and every package shows what is included and what is not. Our local team knows these trails, villages, and seasons well. Every itinerary has dedicated acclimatization days, such as at Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, so safety, comfort, and proper acclimatization come first. With careful arrangements and one team you can rely on from your first message to your last day, you can enjoy the mountains and learn about Sherpa culture.
