The Everest region, home to the world’s tallest peak, Mount Everest (8,848 meters), is a dream destination for trekkers and adventurers from around the globe. Its trekking legacy began in 1953 when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay made their historic ascent, putting the Khumbu region on the map. Soon after, trekkers began flocking to this iconic area, and the Everest Base Camp Trek gained global recognition as one of the most legendary trekking routes in the world.
Situated in northeastern Nepal, the Everest region offers an array of trekking routes tailored to different interests and fitness levels. You can take in some of the challenging adventures in Nepal or opt for a more comfortable yet scenic smaller route.
The region captivates with its dramatic landscapes: glacial valleys, icefalls, and snow-capped peaks. Along the way, you will experience the vibrant Sherpa culture, visiting monasteries like Tengboche and passing through quaint villages such as Namche Bazaar. Additionally, you will encounter fluttering prayer flags, spinning mani wheels, and warm hospitality as you immerse yourself in this spiritual and awe-inspiring journey.
