Answers

Everest Base Camp trek: quick answers

How long does the Everest Base Camp trek take?

The classic Everest Base Camp trek takes about 12 to 14 days from Kathmandu, including the flight to Lukla and acclimatisation days. Shorter itineraries of 7 to 10 days exist, and helicopter-return options save the walk back down.

How high is Everest Base Camp?

Everest Base Camp on the south side in Nepal sits at about 5,364 metres (17,598 feet). Kala Patthar, the usual viewpoint above it, reaches about 5,545 metres.

When is the best time to trek to Everest Base Camp?

The two main seasons are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). Both bring stable weather and clear mountain views. Winter is colder and quieter, and the monsoon months of June to August bring rain and cloud.

Do I need trekking experience for Everest Base Camp?

No technical climbing is needed. The trek follows well-used trails and teahouse lodges, but it is long and high, so good general fitness and a slow, acclimatised pace matter more than prior experience.

What is included in an Everest Base Camp trek package?

A complete package from our Thamel office normally covers permits, teahouse lodging, meals on the trail, the Lukla flight, and a licensed guide. Each trip page lists exactly what is and is not included.
