How difficult is Luxury Everest Base Camp Trek?

The Luxury Everest base camp trek sounds luxurious but it is in terms of accommodation only. The difficulty level of the trekking will be the same as the regular trekking adventure in the region. As a multi-day and high-altitude trekking adventure, it is a fairly challenging trek that demands good physical fitness.

Although a challenging trekking adventure, it is not an extremely difficult trek to accomplish. People of any age group with a good fitness level can do it. You just need to have strong willpower. However, you will need to have the sound physical fitness to accomplish the adventure successfully.

The difficulty level will go up as you gain elevation as your reach closer to the base camp. Your walking pace will be slower and you will find the oxygen level thinning as you reach the higher altitudes. The increasing elevation and scant oxygen level will make the trek more challenging. But the situation is certainly bearable with minimum effort.

But the good thing is the luxury accommodation with delicious foods to relish after a tiring day of trekking. You will get to enjoy a great sleep at luxury lodges after each day of the trek.

Fitness for Short Everest Base Camp Trek with Heli Return to Kathmandu

Even for a fit person, it is a challenge but surely an achievable one. Once you plan to go on the trekking adventure to Everest Base Camp, you should also start working on your fitness. Even if you are on a regular workout routine, making it a little more trekking friendly can help you a lot.

Doing more cardio exercises; taking small hikes around, walking or jogging outside and if possible, going on short treks around can be truly helpful. The gist is that you should certainly have a good level of physical fitness. Another important aspect is your mental fitness as well. Walking for several days in the mountains can be arduous but it is your determination and mental strength that takes you forward on the adventure.

When to go and what to take

Whenever you think you are ready, you can embark on the adventure. Although the trip is doable most of the time throughout the year, March-May and September-November are the most favorable months. As the weather in the high mountain is unpredictable, it is wise to choose the time when the weather normally remains at its best.

Another important thing for the adventure is getting well equipped. A lack of necessary equipment for trekking can seriously affect the trip. So, knowing beforehand what you will require in the mountains is a must. You can ask us for the list of equipment that you will need for the Short Everest Base Camp Trek with Heli Return to Kathmandu.

You can also refer to our equipment list for the trek.

Self or Guided Trek

Although the trail to Everest base camp is well-trodden and you can traverse it on your own, it is always advisable to trek with a guide. Trekking with a guide ensures your safety. As you are a stranger in the region and maybe with the high-altitude wilderness, walking with a guide and in a group keeps you in comfort. You will know what to do and what not to do in the mountains so that you keep yourself on the safe side.

Altitude sickness is another matter of fact that this trek involves. Actually, any trekking adventure that goes above 3,000 meters from sea level involves the risk of altitude sickness. In addition to altitude sickness, there may come several other health issues as you walk in the mountains that need immediate attention and help. During these difficult times, a guide is the best solution.

We get ready early in the morning for our flight to Lukla. We are going to set foot in the marvelous Everest region. A short and beautiful flight lands us at Lukla airstrip where incredible mountain views welcome us to the charming mountain region.

As soon as we come out of the airport, we get ready to begin the trekking journey. We are trekking to Phakding today on a gentle and easy trail that takes us past chhortens, mani walls, prayer flags, etc. to let us know that the region has a big influence on Buddhism. We reach Phakiding on the bank of Dudh Koshi River to stay overnight.

Day 02: Phakding – Namche Bazar 3,440m

Although the trail today gives us a pretty tough challenge of traversing uphill trail, we go on a gentle pace to ease the challenge. Bustling Namche Bazar certainly welcomes us for an overnight stay.

Day 03: Namche Bazar – Tengboche 3,860m

On the third day of the Everest base camp trek 10 days, our destination is Tengboche. The first section of the trek goes uphill and becomes gentler before it descends to a mountain stream.

Our overnight place today is Lobuche and we trek there through a rugged mountain trail filled with glacial moraine, huge boulders, and bare landscape. Captivating views of mountains certainly accompany us along the trail. Our pace gets slower as we trek higher and we can clearly feel the shortage of oxygen level in the air.
