Everest Base Camp Trek Package — 12-Day Guided Trek

Our Everest Base Camp trek package is one of the most sought-after adventures for trekkers worldwide, and a visit to Mount Everest remains a lifetime dream for many. With the ideal opportunity to take in majestic mountain panoramas and the region's stunning scenery, this trekking package ranks among the top trekking experiences on a world stage.

This 12-day Everest Base Camp trek winds, climbs and descends its way through lush lowland and alpine forest, Buddhist monasteries and authentic Sherpa villages. Highlights of this trek package include the lifestyle of the high Himalayan people, their religion, customs and traditions, rare birds like the golden eagle, snow pigeon, red-billed and yellow-billed coughs and flowers like rhododendron, magnolias, blue pine, chir pine, juniper, and hemlock make this trekking package a delight for nature lovers.

Our Everest Base Camp trek package involves a remarkable amount of up and down hike-walking. Tea house trekking is possible on the main trail to Everest Base Camp. While reaching Base Camp is the goal for many trekkers on this package, the view of Everest itself from the base camp can be disappointing. For the best views of Everest, we recommend taking the Kalapatthar Trek. This trek can be completed in conjunction with our Everest Base Camp trek package.


Everest Base Camp Trek Difficulty

The Everest Base Camp trek difficulty is rated moderate to challenging. You don't need technical climbing experience, but you should be in good physical condition, as the trek involves long walking days (5–7 hours) at high altitude, with the highest point of the trek at Kala Patthar (5,545m). Altitude sickness is the main risk on this route, which is why our itinerary builds in two dedicated acclimatization days at Namche Bazaar and Dingboche. We recommend starting a basic cardio and hiking fitness routine at least 4–6 weeks before your trek.

Best Time to Trek Everest Base Camp

The best time to trek Everest Base Camp is during the pre-monsoon (March–May) and post-monsoon (September–November) seasons. These months offer clear skies, stable weather, and the best mountain visibility. Spring also brings blooming rhododendron forests along the lower trail, while autumn offers the most consistent, crisp views of Everest and the surrounding peaks.

Day 03: Rest day/Namche Bazaar (3440m) – An acclimatization day at Namche Bazaar.
An essential rest day for proper acclimatization before heading to higher altitude. A short hike up to the Everest View Hotel or the hilltop above Namche offers views of Everest, Ama Dablam and neighboring peaks, along with a visit to the local museum.

Day 04: Namche Bazaar (3440m) trek to Tengboche (3810m).
A gradual scenic path descends to the Imja Khola river for lunch, then climbs uphill through rhododendron, pine and fir forest with views of snow-capped peaks.

Day 05: Tengboche (3810m) to Dingboche (4410m) trek.
A morning descent over the Imja Khola river, after which the trail opens onto high country where the tree line thins to a few juniper and dwarf rhododendron bushes.

A second essential rest day for acclimatization. A short hike up the nearby hills offers excellent views of Makalu and neighboring peaks.

Day 07: Trek Dingboche (4410m) – Lobuche (4910m).
A steep climb of about an hour opens onto excellent views, followed by a gentler trail to a lunch stop where the Khumbu glacier melt forms a raging river. After a break, a steep climb leads to a pass marked by stone memorials to climbers who lost their lives on Everest, Lhotse and other high peaks nearby. From here a pleasant walk continues to Lobuche for the overnight stop.

Day 08: Walk from Lobuche (4910m) to Gorakshep (5140m) and to Everest Base Camp (5364m), return to Gorakshep.
