Nature  

Undeniably, one of the first things people seek when on an Everest Trek is to marvel at the region's nature. The characteristics that trekkers will cross vary greatly throughout all the trekking to Everest base camp packages we offer. From the lush green forests of the lower Khumbu region, the dry and rocky terrain of the Gokyo region, and the icy moraines of the Ngozumpa glacier. Suppose you choose one of the Everest treks, including a visit to Gokyo. In that case, you can also enjoy the six pristine Gokyo Lakes, Unique turquoise waters that the mighty Himalayas has surrounded for centuries. Every Everest trekking package includes walks through rhododendron-filled forests and oak and pine-filled woods. And some of the Everest treks even include trips to National Parks that host flora and fauna seen nowhere else in the World. Here you can see deer, wild boar, and even snow leopards! From frost to moss-covered paths and steep hills to staggering slopes – routes are always varied and often involve following the river or crossing one of the many suspension bridges. So no matter how difficult the trek may get or how long you have been walking, you can always be sure that the wilding varying landscapes around you will keep you entertained and fascinated throughout.

Culture

The cultural journey begins as soon as you touch down in Nepal. All our trips include the chance to explore the country's bustling Capital, Kathmandu. With a host of World UNESCO sights, including Patan Durbar Square, Kathmandu Durbar Square, Pashupatinath, Boudha Stupa, and Swyambunath, there is abundant culture to explore. After visiting these ancient spots and soaking in the chaos of the Capital, you are whisked away to the Himalayas where, whichever trek you choose, you will be taken into a different type of culture. As you move throughout your tour, you'll find that each village hosts entirely different traditions; due to our guides and their history in the area, we can ensure that all trekkers on our trip are always given the warmest of welcomes. Trekking in Nepal typically takes you to Namche Bazaar, a famous Sherpa settlement aptly named 'The Gateway to Everest.' It can also take you to Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, Gorak Shep, Dhole, Luza, Machhermo, and Gokyo Valley – one of the highest settlements in Nepal.

The Himalayas themselves are sacred – as are the lakes and all else that reside within them. Every journey involves at least one visit to a monastery, one of the most notable being the ancient Buddhist Tengboche Monastery – nestled amidst the peaks of some of the World's most famed mountains. Meet monks who live up in the mountains, listen to their payers, and soak in their culture. ebc trek is also peppered with Gompas and crisscrossed with multicolored prayer flags. And depending on the trip, you may even see ancient Mani walls built with prayer-inscribed stones that's why the base camp trek is popular.
