The Everest Base Camp (EBC) Trek is one of the most iconic and popular trekking routes in the world, drawing thousands of trekkers each year to the base of the world’s highest mountain, Mount Everest (8,848.86 meters / 29,031.7 feet). It offers a stunning blend of natural beauty, cultural richness, and high-altitude adventure.
Mount Everest Base Camp has been a popular destination for trekkers since the very first expeditions to the Nepalese side of Everest in the 1953. To reach this part of the Himalaya within a limited time, we have devised this two week trek to Everest Base Camp which runs directly to and from Lukla.
