Trip Overview of Everest Base Camp Trek 7 Days

Everest Base Camp trek 7 Days Days which sounds quite strange because it normally takes around two weeks. Tourist Link Treks and Adventure came up with the idea of organizing it within seven days. This one-week journey takes you to EBC and comes back from there with a scenic helicopter flight back to Kathmandu.

Nowadays because of the busy work schedule, people do have not enough time for a multi-week trekking journey thus Tourist Link Treks & Adventure started to organize this trip to fulfill your dream of exploring Everest Base Camp Trek in one week. The only difference between a regular Everest Base Camp Trek and Everest Base Camp Trek 7 days are of time duration otherwise you can explore everything that a regular EBC trekker experiences. And another special feature of this journey is you can enjoy a bird-eye aerial view while coming back to Kathmandu which is so beautiful.
First, we fly to Lukla from Kathmandu taking small propeller aircraft. Then we trek to Everest Base Camp exploring the village and mountain along the way. We visit Everest Base Camp and climb Kalapathar 5550m from where we can see a very clear view of Mt Everest, Khumbu glacier, Mt Lhotse, Mt Nuptse, and dozens of other mountains. We take a Helicopter from Gorakshep 5160m and fly back to Kathmandu.

Everest Base camp trek-7 days complexity

The journey to the Everest Base Camp trek is for sure a challenging task that requires physical fitness and little hiking experience. If you consider doing some physical workout and cardio exercise before coming to the Everest trek it will be way easier than you think. We do it steadily taking a significant amount of acclimatization which makes it easier than you think. In short, we can say it’s challenging but not very difficult. The season of this trek is September to December, and March to May.

Itinerary

Your adventure kicks off as your guide meets you at your hotel in the early morning. A quick 10-minute drive takes you to the airport. After the necessary check-in procedures, you embark on a scenic Himalayan flight to Lukla (2840m), a journey of approximately 30 minutes. Welcomed by your porter upon arrival, you collectively transport your baggage to a nearby hotel. Here, the guide provides insights into the journey, essential guidelines, and introduces you to the porter. The trek commences with a descent towards Phakding, traversing a picturesque stone-laden trail. En route, you pass through charming Sherpa villages like Cheplung, Chaurikharka, and Ghat, eventually reaching Ghat village alongside the turquoise Dudhkoshi River. A delightful lunch awaits at Thadokoshi village, complemented by stunning views of Mt Kusumkangaro.

Embarking on your trek after a wholesome breakfast around 8 a.m., the trail follows the Dudh Koshi River, weaving through numerous villages. Along the way, feast your eyes on a panorama of mountains, including Thamserku (6608m), Kusum Kangaroo (6367m), Kwangde (6168m), Nuptse (7861m), Taboche (6367m), Cholatse (6335m), Khumbi-yulha (5761m), and the majestic Mt. Everest (8848m). Crossing suspension bridges, a stop at Monjo marks your entrance into the national park, where your guide handles permit formalities. Relish lunch at Jorsalle (2740m) with a breathtaking backdrop of rivers, jungles, and waterfalls. Donkeys, trekkers, and porters create a lively scene. Beyond the Larja Dovan high suspension bridge (2830m), a stone-laden staircase ascends to Namche. En route, the Everest viewpoint reveals captivating sights of Mt. Everest (8848m) and Nuptse (7861m). The shaded trail leads to Namche (3440m), where you rest overnight in a mountain lodge, also known as a tea house.


Commencing our trek after a hearty breakfast, we navigate a trail that ascends sharply for the initial 20 minutes, leveling off to a path elevated above the terrain. Revel in breathtaking vistas featuring Mt. Amadablam (6856m), Everest (8848m), Lhotse (8414m), Taboche (6367m), Cholatse (6335m), Thamserku (6608m), and Khangtega (6685m). Descending after Sanasa, we reach Phunki Tenga (3250m) by the Dudhkoshi River, where we pause for a nourishing lunch. Ascending through switchbacks, the proximity to Mt. Khangtega (6685m) unfolds, alongside panoramic views of Namche and Khumjung. Encounter the Himalayan Thar, a wild goat species, while approaching Tengboche. This revered site boasts stunning backdrops of Mt. Everest and Mt. Amadablam. Tengboche's ancient monastery hosts daily worship rituals, creating a sacred and mystical ambiance. A six-hour trek concludes at a mountain lodge, offering an overnight stay.

Embarking on the day's trek after a nourishing breakfast, the trail unfolds uphill towards Somare (4010m), characterized by yak pastureland and herder shelters. Ascending gradually, a captivating view of Mt. Amadablam (6856m) emerges prominently. Continuing the journey, Pheriche (4240m) is the next settlement, where a pause for lunch allows for absorbing the surrounding mountainous panorama. Beyond Pheriche, the landscape becomes sparser in vegetation, offering an unobstructed 360-degree view of mountains, prominently featuring Mt. Amadablam and Lhotse. The route encounters numerous yaks and their herder shelters, contributing to the enchanting ambiance. Once a farming village, Pheriche has transformed into a tea house town, with seasonal farming persisting during summer. The day concludes with an overnight stay at a mountain lodge, encompassing a six-hour trek to Thokla (4410m).


Continuing the trek, we embark on the journey to Lobuche (4900m) after a hearty breakfast. The trail initiates with an uphill ascent to cross the Thokla-La pass (4830m). Subsequently, the path winds through the moraine route alongside the bank of the Khumbu glacier. Along this route, numerous memorials stand as tributes to climbers and trekkers who met their fate in this formidable region. Plaques dedicated to legendary climbers dot the landscape. The panoramic view encompasses majestic mountains such as Khumbutse (6665m), Lingtren (6749m), Chumbu (6859m), and Lobuche Peak (6119m). The trek duration is approximately 3.5 hours, culminating in an overnight stay at a mountain lodge.

Embarking on our journey early in the morning after a nourishing breakfast, we traverse the gully formed by a glacier. The trail ascends a small pass known as Lobuche pass, leading above a glacier laden with loose rocks and gravel. It's essential to pace yourself at this altitude, adjusting to the diminishing oxygen levels. The hike offers breathtaking views of the spectacular Himalayan panorama, providing constant rejuvenation. Upon reaching Gorakshep, we take a well-deserved rest, indulge in a hearty lunch, and proceed to explore Everest Base Camp (5365m). The path navigates along the mountain's lower edge beside the glacier, revealing a landscape filled with rock, ice, gravel, and massive chunks of ice. Mt Pumo Ri (7165m) stands tall above, creating a stunning backdrop. After spending time at the base camp, we return to Gorakshep.

Ascending Kalapathar (5550m) before sunrise, we embark on a journey to witness an unparalleled close-up view of Mt Everest. Nestled in the heart of the Khumbu Everest Himalaya, Kalapathar, meaning "black rock," offers a vantage point for a 360-degree panorama of Everest, Khumbu valley, and the daunting Khumbu icefall. The detailed and close-up perspective of Mt Everest from Kalapathar contrasts with its appearance from the base camp. The ascent, taking 3-4 hours round-trip, culminates with a rewarding breakfast. Subsequently, we prepare for a breathtaking helicopter ride back to Kathmandu, savoring the mesmerizing aerial views of the picturesque countryside during the 1.5-hour journey.
