What to expect during the Everest base camp trek?
Unlike the famous Everest Base Camp trek, the Everest three high passes trek 18 days explores the hidden corner of the Khumbu region. You will walk deep into the Khumbu region and come across some of the wildest mountain landscapes. The changing vegetation and climate give way to diverse sceneries.
From trekking via lush rhododendron forests, you will ascend above the tree line and walk through glacier moraines and boulder fields. The initial part of the trail follows the Dudh Koshi River and crosses it numerous times via hanging suspension bridges. The terrain changes as the elevation rises, and you will navigate many steep tracks.
With adventure, you will also get to experience the mountain lifestyle and learn the culture and traditions of the locals. Sherpas are one of the main communities of the Khumbu region. Likewise, along the trail, you will also get to visit ancient monasteries like Tengboche, Pangboche, and Thame. The trail is also dotted with many stupas, chortens, and prayer flags.
Overall, the Everest Three High Passes trek is a wonderful venture in Nepal that will push you to unlock your limits. You will touch great heights on this trek and come across unbelievable landscapes. Far away in the remoteness of the Everest region, you will get to unwind and reconnect to yourself.
