Everest treks

Sherpa villages, high lakes and the walk to the foot of the world’s highest peak.

The Khumbu is home to Everest Base Camp, the turquoise Gokyo Lakes and the demanding Three Passes route. Most treks start with a flight to Lukla and follow well-built teahouse trails through Sherpa villages and monasteries. Altitude is the main challenge here, so plan acclimatisation days with your partner.
