The Everest region is one of the world’s most popular and spectacular trekking destinations worldwide. Himalayan Treks specialises in trekking in Nepal. This outstanding trek covers the four main valleys in the Khumbu region, hikes up three peaks and crosses three high passes.
This is a lengthy and difficult trek and you must be fit and healthy upon arrival in Kathmandu. You must be mentally strong too.
The highlights are the scenic flight to Lukla, the crossing of Renjo La, Cho La and Khangma La passes; the ascent to Gokyo Ri, Kala Patthar and Chhukung Ri peaks; and the Base Camp experience.
We at Himalayan Treks allow full customisation for our customers, which is why we also have add-ons and trip extensions which can be perused by interested trekkers. Some popular trip extensions availed by our clients include a day or more exploring the historic sites of Kathmandu, Bhaktapur or why not pay a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Chitwan National Park. However, if you are looking for another experience altogether, we can recommend the Annapurna Circuit trek or the Manaslu Circuit trek.
