Best Everest Region Trekking Routes
1) Lower Everest Trek
Usually, most Everest view treks do not explore many villages and rather have a short time in the mountains. Therefore, we have designed our Lower Everest Trek Package to offer a bit longer time to trekkers in the mountains which we consider one of the best everest region trekking routes.
On this 12-day trek, you will explore places like Lukla, Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Thame, Khumjung village, Phortse Thanga, Tengboche, and Monjo. You will spend nights in all these villages.
The itinerary is designed to present you with the thrill of the mainstream EBC trek route as well as the tranquility of less crowded sections of the region.
During the trek, you will get to witness stunning views of Mount Everest and many other mountains like Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, Island Peak, Thamserku, etc. Similarly, experience the mountain lifestyle and see the daily life of Sherpas and other mountain communities.
