01 / THE EXPERIENCE

Discover the journey

Beginning with a gorgeous flight to Lukla, the trek to Namche Bazaar consists of a two-day march along the Dudh Koshi River, past charming settlements, and across suspension bridges. Before the strenuous climb to Namche Bazaar (3,440m), which provides the first view of Everest at Top Danda, the trip stops at Phakding. In order to acclimate, trekkers frequently stay an additional day here, seeing the Everest View Hotel, Sagarmatha National Park Museum, and local marketplaces. Adventurers are rewarded with breathtaking Himalayan landscapes and a rich Sherpa culture after completing the fairly difficult trip.
