Everest Basecamp Trek
Himalayas, Nepal, Asia

Our Everest Basecamp trek will be a 14 day trek through Everest base camp stopping along the way to tour the centuries old Buddhist monasteries. This portered tea-house trip will be for backpackers and climbers a like. With a starting elevation of about 8,000ft the trip begins near the rainforest. As the trail ascends along the ridges and valleys of the Khumbu region the environment quickly changes to conifer forests and high alpine terrain. After nine days of hiking we reach Everest base camp and an optional side hike to Kala Pataar at over 18,000 feet.

A typical day in the Khumbu may be spent hiking within view of the highest mountains in the world. Ama Dablam, Pumori, Nuptse, and Everest are just a few of the big peaks along the way. On rest days we take it easy with an opportunity to visit local Buddhist monasteries, barter in the trader’s markets, or spend a relaxed evening in the tea houses learning about the Nepali people.
“I’m couldn’t be more excited about this trip.” SWS guide James Brown. “This is one of the most exciting regions of the world if you love the mountains.
This trip allows an awesome sampling of big peaks and an opportunity of emergence in Nepal and Sherpa culture.”

For the more experienced climbers/trekkers there will also be the opportunity for an optional side climb of Imja Se (Island Peak, 20,285ft.) This climb poses a more technical adventure to the trip despite being one of the smaller peaks of the Himalayas. It is a perfect starting point for people interested inclimbing the Himalayas in the future. The return to Katmandu marks the end of our expedition and an opportunity to see more an amazing country.
