Everest Three Passes Trek

Upon your arrival, our airport representative will greet you at Kathmandu's Tribhuvan International Airport. He will drive you in a private car to the hotel. On that day, you will have a planned meeting at the hotel regarding your trip. We will introduce you to your guide/leader at this meeting. Feel free to ask any questions you may have regarding the trip. Moreover, you will spend the night at a Kathmandu hotel.

You will take off over the snow-capped mountains on a clear, bright morning to reach Lukla, one of the most thrilling high-altitude airports, which is located at a height of 2900 meters. You will be accompanied on the trek by your guide and porter. And thus the trekking begins. You will descend over 500 meters to the Dudh Koshi River at the start of the trek. After that, the journey heads towards Phakding following the riverside walk. Arriving at Phakding, where you will spend the first night of your trek, you will pass several mani-walls and boulders etched with Buddhist prayers.

The trail follows the northern trial all the way to Monjo via the Dudh Kosi Valley. The trek officially enters Sagarmatha National Park at Monjo, where a Sagarmatha National Park Permit Card is required. You will reach the center of Sherpa—Namche Bazaar—by following the trek along the hard ascent while relishing the first view of Everest.

After hiking to Khumjung village, we will spend the whole day there to acclimate to the altitude and surroundings. It is usually better to be active during the day rather than spend it sitting down. Additionally, you may go to the museum, monasteries, or the headquarters of the National Parks. You may spend your evenings exploring the market districts. We will also be staying in a Khumjung lodge this evening.

You will trek up into Thame, a historic Sherpa settlement, today, following the ancient commercial routes of Tibet, Nepal, and India. You will visit Khare Gompa and stroll through the picturesque town of Thamo on a track that slopes gently. The path passes through stunning Gompa and Chortains, and it even passes by the home of two renowned climbers: Apa Sherpa, who has climbed Everest 21 times, and Tenzing Norkey, who was the first to summit the mountain alongside Sir Edmund Hillary. As you approach the hamlet, you will come across the oldest Gompa in the Khumbu valley, which is the place of the annual Mani Rimdhu festival.

Following breakfast, you will travel towards Marlung via the Bhote Koshi River, which will take you uphill. You're going to stop there for lunch. The trek offers views of several snow-capped summits, such as Teningbo (5893 m), Phuletate (5597 m), Khumbi Yul Lha (5761 m), and Mt. Kapsale (5583 m). Since the Khumbu valley communities end at Thame, you will seldom ever see Sherpa dwellings. You may see yak caravans making their way from Tibet to Lumde, where you will spend the night.

You have to use greater technical skills today since you are crossing a major part of the Renjo-la Pass. For an hour, the path is easy and smooth; after that, you'll need to use extreme caution to ascend Renjo-la Pass. Your arduous deed will grant you the opportunity to witness the breathtaking vistas of Gyachung Kang, Makalu, Tengi Ragi Tau, Rolwaling Range, and the Everest Himalayan range. You will spend the night in Gokyo, where your first fascinating pass concludes.

Before trekking to Cho La Pass, today is the day to properly acclimate. It does not, however, imply only sipping coffee and reading books at a teahouse. You can hike to Gokyo Ri today, which is a great place to see breathtaking views of Everest and its nearest neighbor, the fourth and fifth lakes, which provide challenging views of Cho-Oyu, Gyachung Kang, Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Makulu.

The trek will be somewhat short. To get to the summit on the opposite side of Gokyo Valley, you must hike across the Ngazumpa Glacier. Then, you'll enter Thagnak by strolling along the mountain's ridge. The trek is more adventurous than difficult. It is best to begin the walk before the sun gets too strong.

You will be crossing another thrilling Chola pass today, so it will be a lengthy and rather tough day of trekking. This pass is a technically challenging trek due to the steep glacier part on the east. The day's hike is challenging due to the slick qualities of ice-covered rocks. You will start the hike by walking through a steep valley and up to the top of the pass, which is identified by prayer flags and chortens that are in motion. From the summit, the sharp Ama Dablam, Cholatse soars Lobuche East, and Baruntse provide breathtaking views. After passing through a few fissures, we reach Dzongla Village.

The walk today should take no more than six hours. Prior to ascending to the highland seasonal hamlet Gorakshep, you will climb up to Lobuche and then stroll along the ridge over Khumbu Glacier. On the same day, you will climb up to Kalapattar, 5545 meters, to the highest point for the breathtaking up-close view of Everest. The trail is paved with rocks. The vista of Kalapatthar at sunset is breathtaking. At Gorekshep's local lodge, you will spend the night.

You will begin your breathtaking trek toward Everest Base Camp as soon as the weather permits. The most breathtaking accomplishment of a lifetime awaits you as you cross the glacier and arrive at Everest Base Camp, which is located 5357 meters above sea level and just beneath the glistening Khumbu Icefall. Retrace your route back to Lobuche after exploring and taking in the breathtaking height.

The highest pass on this journey is just around the corner and is sure to provide you with plenty of exciting and thrilling moments. Soon after breakfast, you will begin to hike eastward, following the Khumbu glacier. You should bring a water bottle and some food because the walk is lengthy and lacks tea shops and water supplies. The greatest views of Mt. Kongma Tse (5820 m), Mt. Pokalde (5806 m), Mt. Makalu (8463 m), Mt. Lhotse Shar (8383 m), Mt. Makalu (7220 m), and Mt. Ama Dablam are available from the trek. After walking up to the peak of Kongma-la, which is adorned with cairns and a Buddhist flag, you will descend in the direction of Chukkung, where you will spend the night.

You will continue on to the monastery land Tengboche after crossing high passes and taking in the beauty of Imja Valley. You'll take a little stroll to tour Khumbu's biggest monastery, where the Everest Expedition crews get blessings. During the months of October and November, this place hosts the fervently celebrated "The Manirimdhu," which is the most fascinating festival. You may take amazing pictures of Mt. Ama Dablam and the surroundings from this location. Stay the night at the lodge.

It will be a steep descent that follows the river, over a bridge, and enjoys a road lined with forests of birch and rhododendron. A few Himalayan giants, such as Everest, Kwangde, Tawache, Nuptse, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Kantega, and Thamserkhu, will also continue to attract your attention. A pleasant overnight at Namche awaits you.

The journey is coming to an end today. To get to Lukla, you will walk alongside the Dudh Koshi River. The Porters, Sherpas, and Guides will be joining you for the celebration. They will enjoy a celebration while learning some traditional Sherpa dancing moves from the local drink, "CHANG."

To return to Kathmandu, you will board a plane. After being driven to your accommodation upon arrival in Kathmandu, the remainder of the day is yours to relax. Spend the night in the hotel.

With a spare day in Kathmandu, you may spend it exploring the city further and buying gifts/souvenirs in the Thamel neighborhood
