Attraction
Everest Base Camp
Stand at the foot of the world's highest mountain
Everest Base Camp (EBC) at 5,364 metres is the ultimate trekking goal for adventurers worldwide. Reached via the iconic Khumbu Valley trail from Lukla, the route passes through Sherpa villages, Buddhist monasteries, and dramatic glacial terrain. The base camp sits at the edge of the Khumbu Icefall and offers a jaw-dropping close-up view of Mount Everest, Nuptse, and Lhotse towering overhead. The classic round-trip trek from Lukla takes 12–14 days and is one of Nepal's most rewarding Himalayan experiences.<
