Trip Information of Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek 18 Days

Best Time

The best times for our Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek are autumn (September to November) and spring (March to May) to realize the dream of conquering Everest Base Camp. In particular, trekking at this time, you can admire the beauty of blooming azalea flowers. The sky is also very clear, enough for you to take in the most perfect view of the white Himalayan mountains. The trail will be clear of snow with a lesser chance of precipitation.

Winter (December to February) and summer/Monsoon (June to August) are not particularly suitable due to unfavorable weather conditions, trail blockage, and lodging unavailability.

However, the weather at (EBC) Everest Base Camp is very unpredictable – sometimes weather can be pleasant which can suddenly change with snow and cold winds. Therefore, to ensure your health when conquering this route, you should consider bringing clothes from summer to winter.

Elevation and trekking distance

Erected at 5364 m above sea level, the Everest Base Camp is situated 200 to 300 away from Kathmandu, Nepal. The high point of our Everest Base Camp Luxury Trek is Kala Patthar at 5548 m while the highest elevation where we will spend the night is at Gorakshep at 5180 m.

As a rule, our starting point is also Lukla at 2800 m altitude staying at the aerial distance of 135 km from Kathmandu. While only 65 km separates Lukla from Everest Base Camp. We begin and end our trek in Lukla within 13 days covering 10 to 12 km per day.

Maximum/Minimum walk per day

During 13-day hiking days in our EBC luxury trek, we will walk mostly for 5 to 6 hours every day from the morning with an hour break for lunch in the afternoon.

The easiest and shortest walking duration is three hours as we make our way from Lukla to Phakding and Phakding to Lukla. The most challenging and longest walking duration is on day 10 and day 11. on day 10, we will reach Everest Base Camp and on day 11 we climb Kala Patthar.

Difficulty and Acclimatization

Located at an altitude of 5364 m above sea level, the Everest Base Camp trek is categorized medium difficult trip in the Everest region. The 13-day continuous trek requires you to have good endurance. On average, each day the trek is about 8-10km, equivalent to 6-7 hours including rest time on the way. The terrain is sometimes uphill and sometimes downhill, but most days the next day is at a higher altitude than the previous day.

Therefore, the higher risk in this trek is of altitude sickness due to the low level of oxygen than that near the sea level. For proper acclimatization, we have planned a rest day at Kathmandu for your first acquaintance with the Nepal atmosphere. Then the second acclimatization day will be at Namche and the third will be at Dingboche. The second and third rest days will be spent following the main principle of hiking high and sleeping low.

In addition, there are also risks of unforeseen weather conditions and chilly weather.

Can a beginner trek to Everest Base Camp?

Anyone can successfully trek to Everest Base Camp if they are fit, and share good physical and mental health. The route to EBC means overcoming steep slopes, crossing long suspension bridges, and walking through forests. Therefore, the main thing to remember is to maintain endurance during this journey.

You should also be able to maintain strength over the long term, so considering the division of energy is important. Flexibility and endurance are more important on this hike than strength.

To make your journey pleasant and light for you, we will provide English speaking guide and porter for assistance along the route and in carrying your heavy luggage respectively.

Preparation and training

As you know, although EBC does not reach an altitude of 8,848m, the weather and road are quite harsh. Therefore, to make your trip as perfect as possible, you must have solid preparation regarding your health. Start practicing 4-6 weeks before your trip.

You can increase your endurance with cardio exercises such as running, walking, swimming, or cycling. A small tip is to wear a backpack while doing cardio for better results. Exercises like squats, push-ups, and pull-ups can help your muscles become stronger. However, don’t let yourself overexercise. Remember the purpose of this preparation is to increase your body’s endurance and increase your lung capacity.

Alternate Routes

We can reach Everest Base Camp via several routes of different difficulty levels. If you want to follow the footprints of Tenzing and Hilary and avoid the thrilling flight to Lukla, you can trek from Jiri to Phakding. The path then joins Namche, Dingboche and Lobuche.

On the other hand, you can also integrate the Gokyo Lake trip, the Three Passes trek, and the Tashi Lapcha Pass trek. You can also combine some climbing expeditions with EBC treks such as the Lobuche ascent, and Island Peak climbing.

Altitude Sickness

At an altitude of more than 5000 m, the amount of oxygen remains only 1/3 of that near sea level. Therefore, it is common if you have difficulty breathing due to thin air. If you are not a professional trekker, you will quickly reach your limit and suffer from altitude sickness that can lead to dizziness, headaches, nausea, nosebleeds, and fatigue.

To prepare for altitude shock, in addition to taking medicine, you can practice breathing exercises, yoga is a typical example. Along the trekking route, please drink enough water at least 3 to 4 lt. Daily. You should always walk high and sleep low in addition to proper rest. If your symptoms worsen even after taking medicine, please go down and postpone your journey for a day or two.

Accommodation, Food and Drink

In Kathmandu, we will arrange for your accommodation in one of the finest five-star hotels for four nights. From Lukla to Namche Bazaar, we will lodge you in a luxurious guesthouse with all the amenities such as wifi and a hot shower.

However, after Namche, finding such lodges is quite impossible so we will stay in the best available guesthouses or lodges that are shared in pairs. The amenities are pretty basic with a bucket of hot water, and shared facilities of laundry and toilets.

In Kathmandu, we offer free hygienic breakfast with lunch and dinner at your free will and the cost is excluded from our service. During the trek, breakfast, lunch, and dinner with tea will be provided with the option of fried eggs, boiled and scrambled eggs, porridge, garlic soup, dal vat tarkari, momos, fried rice, pizza, pasta, etc.

The cost of alcoholic beverages, desserts, and sweet items like chocolate, cake, pie, and pudding are excluded from our service.

Transportation

We offer airport pick-up and drop-off and transport to the hotel by private car or van based on our group size. We also offer Kathmandu to Lukla and Lukla t Kathmandu flight.

In the event of flight direction to Ramechhap airport, we will drive you in a private vehicle to Ramechhap.

Communication, Gadgets charging, and Internet/WIFI

For communication and internet, you can buy a SIM from Ncell or NTC with 4G service all over Nepal. You can then activate the data package by dialing *17123# from Ncell and *1415# for NTC.

You can also purchase Everest Link Wifi card for the internet with various packages such as 500 MB or 100 MB. A Wi-Fi network is also available in almost every hotel, which is a cheaper option because the price is from 2-4$/hour.

Likewise, the lodges also have electricity and solar panels for a continuous supply of electricity so you can charge your devices (mobile, laptop, camera, etc) which can cost you USD 4 to USD 10 per hour. The higher you go, the more the charging price increases and the charging limit is only 1 hour because there are so many people who need to charge.
