Trekking to the Everest base camp, conquering high passes, valleys and glaciers, witnessing chortens, sherpa villages and panoramic views, meeting locals during teahouse stays.
Everest is more than a mountain. And the journey to its base camp is more than just a trek. Along a route dubbed by some as “the steps to heaven”, every bend in the trail provides another photo opportunity—beautiful forests, sherpa villages, glacial moraines and foothills. For active adventurers not afraid to break a sweat, our full trekking support staff will bring you close to local cultures before opening a window to the top of the world.
