Mount
Everest, the highest mountain in the world at the height of 8848 m. reaching on
the top of Everest is the eventual goal for many fascinating and adventure climbers.
The crest of the summit of Everest marks the border between Nepal and China.
The name of the mountain is "Sagarmatha" in Nepal, which means
"Front of Heaven." In the Tibetan language, it is called Chomolungma
or Qomolangma, which means "Mother of the Universe. "Sir Edmund
Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa were the first climbers to reach the top of
the world's highest peak on May 29th. 1953.
Everest Base
Camp is located on the Khumbu Glacier at an altitude of 18,000 feet. All
climbers of the Mount Everest Expedition gather here from the beginning to the
end of the climb. Expedition on Everest also offers the most complete and
exciting range of treks. It also allows you to contemplate unknown places, from
mountains, glaciers, hiking, and famous mountain trails. You can see the first glimpse
of Kusum Kanguru Thamserku, Everest, and Nuptse. Chase the towns of Pangboche
and Pheriche before you finally get close to the Khumbu Glacier. Lobuche's head
is a vintage factor for the beautiful perspectives of Ama Dablam, Taweche, and
unparalleled landscapes. Our approximately 40-day expedition to Mount Everest
in Nepal begins at Everest base camp after Gorakshep.
Upon arrival at Kathmandu Airport, we will greet you then transfer to your hotel. After check-in, you will take rest then meet your trekking guide and other participants, and make final preparation for the trip.
Meals included: None
After attending an official briefing at the Ministry of Tourism, you will explore the fascinating city of Kathmandu. Rest, get acquainted, and take a guided tour of Kathmandu's World Heritage sites. We take a guided tour of some of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in the Kathmandu Valley: Kathmandu Durbar Square, Pashupatinath, Swayambhu, and Boudhnath. The day will also be devoted to finalizing the official procedure and other necessary arrangements. You will also be informed about the nature of the expedition, the team, and the composition of the team do your shopping for personal items as we will fly to the Himalayas tomorrow morning. At the end of the afternoon, the chef will check everyone's equipment, as Kathmandu is the last chance to buy what is missing. It will also be presented to other members of the expedition and guides.
After having breakfast, you will have a scenic flight to Lukla early morning. The flight to Lukla is the most beautiful flight routes in the globe, culminating in a spectacular landing surrounded by high peaks. In Lukla, you will meet your camp staff and porters. After meeting our other crew and with some luggage and arrangements, you start your trek through the thriving village of Lukla until you reach Phakding. Phakding is located on the main trade route through the area, and there are several clean, well-built accommodations where you can stay overnight.
Today, you will continue along the banks of the Dudh Kosi River and cross it twice on suspension bridges before you reach the town of Monjo, where you enter Sagarmatha National Park. You will cross the Dudh Kosi River and Bhote Kosi River on a high suspension bridge and go up steeply almost two hours to get the Namche Bazaar. It is a thriving commercial city and the capital of the Khumbu region with real Tibetan artifacts.
Today, you will spend a day at Namche and allow your body to acclimatize to an altitude of 3450 m. Although this is a day of leisure, it is essential not to be inactive. Health experts always recommend staying active and moving during the rest day, rather than being inactive so you will spend the day taking a day hike in Thame or visiting Khunde and exploring the Namche bazaar itself. Namche Bazzar is the heart of the Everest region. It has government offices, ATMs, shops, restaurants, internet cafes, a bakery, and a colorful market every Friday night and Saturday. If you walk a few hundred vertical feet during the day, it will help you to acclimatize properly. Your guide will take you to the tourist visitor center near the headquarters of Sagarmatha National Park, where you can observe a variety of things related to the early ascenders of Everest, the Sherpa culture, and learn about the different plants and animals of the Everest region.
The well-worn Everest Trail traces the valley above Dudh Kosi. Follow the path enjoying the first magnificent views of the high peaks of Khumbu: Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Ama Dablam. Crossing several villages and numerous tea rooms, cross the Dudh Kosi River and soar up to Thyangboche, It has an impressive and recently rebuilt monastery.
We pass several ramparts of Chortens and Mani and small towns. You will enjoy lunch with a fantastic view of Ama-Dablam. In the shade of the rhododendrons, the path gradually descends towards the river to another well-ventilated suspension bridge. An hour's walk from here takes you to Pangboche, an excellent vantage point for Ama Dablam. Sketch the side of the valley, cross the river and climb the Imja Valley to preserve the picturesque agricultural town of Dingboche.
It is a crucial phase of the expedition. Dingboche is a good place to acclimatize. Our team leader will arrange daily trips to adjacent hills to ensure gradual acclimatization. Walk up some of the nearby hills to slowly increase the altitude. Eat the diet that appears best to acclimatize you before you reach base camp. During your stay in Dingboche, you can attend a high-altitude acclimatization seminar at a Himalayan Rescue Association hospital near Pheriche. The walk to Pheriche and back will also serve as proper acclimatization training.
Return to Pheriche before continuing on the path to base camp. Arrive in Dugla, located under the muzzle of the Khumbu Glacier, a great place for lunch. After lunch, the trail begins to climb steeply alongside the glacial moraine. After a few hours, the trail eventually leads to a small cluster of tea houses located in Lobuje.
When you are exploring the valley and looking out over the Khumbu Glacier, follow a sensible path towards Gorak Shep. The road leaves Gorak Shep and leads to the Khumbu glacier moraine. It becomes quite vague and winds between the rubble hills and eventually reaching base camp near the base of the Khumbu Icefall. It will be your beautiful home for the next few weeks.

Travel insurance
Travel insurance for any itinerary of
our Company is a condition for booking vacations. At a minimum, you must have
emergency medical and repatriation insurance, which must include the cost of
the mountain rescue. Please carefully review the Terms and Conditions of your
insurers; in particular, you should ensure that the following are covered: 1)
Activity (i.e., tourism, trekking or mountaineering) 2) Maximum altitude
reached on the trek 3) Evacuation by helicopter in case of emergency. You
should understand that ultimately, the responsibility for any expenses incurred
in the evacuation and repatriation procedures will be borne by you and that it
is your responsibility to pay the costs incurred concerning any evacuation or
medical treatment. You should be fully aware of the implications of organizing
your travel insurance and understand the limitations and exclusions of your
policy. Please note that in certain circumstances, our Company Guide can
initiate helicopter rescue procedures (or any other necessary means) in medical
emergencies without first contacting your insurance company for approval.
Trekking day
Trekking days also help the body react
and acclimatize to the high altitude environment. It is always advisable to go
slowly, at first, stopping in villages higher and higher in the range. You will
walk a few miles and then rested at night, leaving the body to reconfigure into
thinner air. In the remote countryside, early bedtime and early wakeup times
are most appropriate. A typical trekking day begins around 6 or 7 a.m. enjoy
the sumptuous breakfast and start the walk. Bring your bag with the personal
items you need for the day. Walk at your own pace, enjoy the scenery, chat with
the locals, and take photos. Usually stops for lunch after about 3 hours of
walking. Lunchtime also helps with acclimatization. The goal would be to get to
the next stop at sunset. After arriving at the nightspot, the crew members
secure the tents. You can relax with a cup of tea or coffee or take a nice walk
around the campsite. Dinner would be ready around 7 p.m. Enjoy dinner while
sharing the day's experience with team members.
Climbing day
The climbing route may vary depending on
the climber's personal experience. A day of climbing involves regular climbing
for 3-4 hours in the morning. After lunch, relaxation, there is a 2-3 hour
climb in the afternoon. However, the flexibility of the climbing route is
necessary as people climb at their own pace and respond individually to the
stress of climbing. We ensure that the proportion of Sherpa climbers and guides
is focused on high-security measures so that each climber can progress at their
own pace.
Weather
Spring from March to May is considered
favorable weather for climbing Everest. However, Everest's weather conditions
are never entirely predictable. Temperatures can drop to minus 20 ° C in
summer, but they can drop to minus 60 ° C or even lower in winter. The
possibility of bad weather, such as snow, wind, and clouds, should also be
considered. Also, wind speed can reach 80 km / h (50 mph). The temperature at the
base camp is around 15 ° C warmer than at the top. The oxygen level around
7,000m is only 40% of what is at sea level.
Physical condition and experience requirements
Although Everest is not as technical as
K2 or Kanchenjunga, it is not very easy to climb Everest even for experienced
mountaineers. It is also true that returning from the top is more important
than getting there. There is real objective danger and misjudgment involved
with every expedition to Everest. The oxygen level of more than 7,000 m is only
40% of what is at sea level. The weather is never wholly predictable. Climbers
must have years of rock and ice climbing experience, especially above 7,000m.
You should also feel safe and comfortable climbing or descending fixed ropes
along steep technical terrain. Also, as Jon Krakauer says, while you're on the
Thin Air up there, “The consequences of a loose knot, a trip, a dislodged rock,
or other reckless act are likely to be felt by the author's colleagues more
than the assailant. Their actions affect not only yours but also the well-being
of the entire team.
Climbing plan
Base camp: 5,200 m
Mount Everest base camp at 5200 m in an
ice field is higher than most of the highest peaks in the Alps and Andes. You
need to spend enough time at base camp to allow your body to acclimatize at
high altitudes. You should feel comfortable before leaving the base camp. You
can climb a smaller peak, Kala Patthar, which overlooks Mount Pumori and
Everest's austere black pyramid.
Climb from Base Camp to Camp 1: 6,400m
After base camp, you cross crevices,
seracs, and black ice. Similarly, you face large chunks of ice as you climb.
Sherpas repair the Khumbu Icefall with ropes and ladders. Use fixed ropes and
aluminum ladders to climb Camp One at 6400m. Camp 1 is located on top of the
icefall in a flat area of snow. Camp 1 also acts as an interim storage
facility until Camp 2 is built at 21,000 feet in the Western Cwm.
Climb from Camp 1 to camp 2:
Camp 2 is at the foot of the frozen Mont
Lhotse wall. The weather is lovely here, especially except the clouds coming
from the lowest beach. There may also be a strong wind. Camp II will be the
base during camp three and camp four placements. Camp 2 will, therefore,
consist of large tents for cooking and meals and several small tents for
sleeping.
Climb from Camp 2 to Camp 3: 7,100m,
Camp 3 is located at the height of
22,300 feet, next to the wall of Mount Lhotse. Climb up the Lhotse wall with a
fixed rope and lead to camp 4. Climb steeply over the rotting limestone. Cross
the short path of snowfields heading east before completing the southern plain
pass. Keep the oxygen supply within easy reach.
Climbing from Camp 3 to Camp 4: 8,400 m
Oxygen will be used over Camp 3. Beyond
Camp 3, there may be drawbacks due to thinning air that requires the use of
oxygen. Climbers must pass through the steep strips. Cross a short field of
snow; the route takes the Geneva to spur east before finishing the apartments
of the south pass. Camp 4, at an altitude of 8,400 m, is the last camp of the
expedition.
Climbing from Camp 4 on top (Summit)
Climbing from camp 4 to the top is the
final and dangerous part of the climb, but it is the most important day. The
summit is about 500 m from Camp 4. The usual best way to reach the summit is
through the narrow southeast ridge.
Climbing Mount Everest is very difficult due to the altitude, breathing is difficult, and many people try to climb at the same time when the weather is nice during the tourist season. Therefore, it is difficult to make fast progress. You need good skills to travel on ice and glaciers. You need an almost superhuman endurance. Need a high level of cardiovascular strength and physical fitness. It is not something you can easily trample on, and if you go through one of the corridors of the north face, you will make one of the most difficult ascents in the world but almost anyone can make Everest if they work hard enough. It takes a lot of determination.
