Fly from Kathmandu to Lukla and take a short walk to the lodge. Where a hot cup of tea at our lodge awaits you before commencing the trek. After tea we proceed trek passing by several villages. The second half of the trek to Monjo is around 3 hours. The next big tourist village on the way to Monjo is Phakding (8,700 ft / 2,652 m). The entire trail from Lukla to Monjo is quite easy trekking gently up and down hills. Memories of the first day will include the sounds of porters with transistor radios, a cacophony of different languages, and strange sounding birds, the sights of porters with loads resting on sticks outside tea houses, tired trekkers on their way back to Lukla, prayer flag poles, the gaudy colors of the tea houses and of course the dramatic scenery. Warm welcome tea served with cookies and cakes await you at the Monjo lodge.

In order to acclimatize, Sherpa sirdar takes you on a day walk to Thakchok Danda, 9,842 ft / 3,000 m. From there you can have view of the Kongde Ri, Thamserku and the Numbur Himal which are quite spectacular. The total excursion takes about 6 hours. Return to Monjo Lodge for overnight.

After five minutes trek from the Lodge we enter into Everest National Park area, where entry formalities have to be done. Today we have little tough day of the trek but we proceed slowly, enjoying the scenery as we climb gradually to Namche Bazar. On the way there are two suspension bridges of Dudh Kosi River. A long steep trail but with several stops to catch our breath, and a slow plod, we make our way steadily upwards. The trail to Namche Bazar is a well marked, comfortable broad trail. Trekking three hours we arrive - Namche Bazar (3,450 m).

Today we climb toward the Gompa. From there the great Khumbila massif begins to emerge in the north. From Syangboche the road bifurcates towards Kunde and Khumjung. We take the path towards Kunde po and visit the hospital run by the Himalayan Trust. From there to Khumjung the trail goes through cultivated fields that stretch over a mostly flat terrain. In Khumjung visit the school and trek towards our lodge. Overnight – Everest Summit Lodges- Tashinga

Today we cross Dudh Koshi river and the gradual ascent to the Tengboche plateau (3870 m) is around three hours walk. We pass by thick rhododendron forest and come accross monks, trekkers and traders. During the lunch break visit the most famous monastery in Khumbu, Most parts are comfortable and scenic trail. Our lodge in Pangboche is located right along the trail to Everest and almost at the base of the Mt. Ama Dablam

From Pangboche we take it gently as the terrain changes dramatically. It suddenly turns dry and barren after an hour we finally crossed the tree line. Dingboche has great mountain views although it is dry and windy. A good place to rest and acclimatize for the tough trail that lies ahead.

It is one of the best trek in the entire trail. With Cholatse and Taboche soaring in the right, the Lobuche peaks straight ahead, and Ama Dablam and Thamserku looming behind, you feel as if you are truly in the lap of the Himalayas.

Today we begin trek to Gorakshep (5170m) about 3 hours walk from Lobuche. In Gorakshep we check in our lodge and then head towards Kalapathar (5545m) which takes 4 hour to go and come back. At Kalapathar, your eyes glance through the unbelievable Himalayan panorama, wandering from one mighty massif to another and often returning to gaze at Everest.

Today is one of the toughest days comparing with the previous days, we go up to base camp and all the way down to Lobuche. The trail to EBC is marked by memorials to mountaineers. The trail is well trodden. At Ebc we get a flavour of life as scores of mountaineers prepare for their assault on Everest.
