| Everest Base Camp Trek & Cholapass |
| This
route of this classic trek is a variation of the Everest
trail to avoid the busier standard route and to see Sherpa
villages that are less used to visitors. Starting with a
spectacular flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, you then trek
through the heart of Sherpa country.
This challenging trek culminates with an early morning ascent
of Kala Pattar (18,188ft/5,545m), which overlooks the Base
Camp and offers superb views of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse
and Makalu. To add further variety you trek back to Lukla
by a different route, visiting more villages and monasteries. |

Activites
(Option:) Kathmandu sightseeing
We will be visiting three of the famous heritage
sites in Kathmandu. You will visit first the Swayambunath
Stupa (Monkey Temple). It is said that Swayambunath
Stupa is more than 2,000 years old, and it symbolizes
knowledge. The painted eyes on all four sides
symbolize the all-seeing power of Buddha. It is
an important Buddhist place where pilgrims from
all over the world come. It is situated to the
west of the city on a hill some 77 meters above
the valley.
It is a 30 minutes drive to Boudhanath Stupa,
another important Buddhist pilgrims site. This
ancient Stupa is considered one of the biggest
in the World. Every morning and evening, many
Buddhist devotees come here to pray and circumambulate
enabling the visitors to observe local religious
practices.
The sacred Hindu temple Pashupatinath is considered
the holiest cremation ground, and people bathe
in the Bagmati River with a faith of cleansing
themselves spiritually. Many Sadhus or Hindu Ascetics
live here. During religious festivals, Hindus
come to make offerings, and it is sometimes very
crowded.
