Everest View Trek FAQs

  • Taking the guide is not at all essential for Everest Base Camp Trek but it is strongly recommended by us. Due to its altitude, the Everest trek is a challenging task, as you ascend higher at the Himalayas, there is a possibility of avalanches and heavy snowfall. This might create problems for solo trekkers as the trail might be miscalculated. Due to fewer dwellers at the Himalayas, you will encounter fewer trekkers and locals, and in time of need, there will be no one to help you. So, at least you will need a local guide to help you to accomplish your trek to Everest Base Camp more easily.

  • The Everest Base Camp (EBC) trek is very achievable for people prepared to put in the hard work before departure. The trek is precisely that: a walk. There are no sort of technical elements to the journey, just one foot in front of the other; the key is not to rush and to take your time.

  • Some accommodations have charging stations available for small electronic devices like phones, cameras, and battery packs, but will often come at an additional cost should you wish to use the full power. This can range from 200-600 rupees, depending on how far you are from the power grid.

  • most of the places,  You can also get Wi-Fi access in Lukla, Phakding, Namche, and other places.  Again, some locations may charge a small cost for its use.

  • an amazing experiencerating star

    My friend and I did an Everest view trek with the  Nepal Everest Base camp Trekking company  at March of  2018 and we had an amazing experience! This trek, starting from the Lukla until the designated Tengboche, is full of nice scenery. The landscape is so beautiful to see! We have slept in several tea houses and always had a great service from the hosts and from our guide, Prakash. The food was surprisingly very good for the fact that we were at the mountains. We would recommend Everest view trek to anybody who has 7 days to spend on the nice trek. It's also not really that difficult. Anybody could do it! Also, if you're looking for a nice and clean hotel to stay during your presence in Kathmandu, then this is the place for you. 100% Recommended
