Nepal has got the 8 out of 10 highest peaks, in the world. The Mount Everest region, locally known as Khumbu, is the most famous of many different Sherpa-settled regions. The villages are very beautiful with sociable sherpa dweller. Spectacular mountain vistas are complemented by visits to Sherpa villages, homes and monasteries offering you an insight into the quiet but, culturally vivacious Sherpa way of life.

The following itinery is a suggested outline for a trek which covers the highlights of the Khumbu and the most visited places. Details may vary according to personal taste and time schedule. The schedule caters for tea house trekking, expedition style trekking where porters carry your tent and food, or a combination of both.
Critcally important though is to follow a proper acclimatisation process. This is so often hurried with dire consequences. This is a high altitude trek with considerable time sleeping at high altitudes. After a few days of rest and sightseeing in Kathmandu you are ready to embark on the journey. |
