Everest Lodge - Trekking in Nepal
Trip Code: EL (13 days in Nepal)
With the building of a series of more comfortable lodges, it is now
possible for trekkers to get up as close to these majestic mountains
in comfort previously not available. The locations of the four lodges
in the Everest region have been carefully selected for their natural
scenic beauty and easy accessibility to make your journey a unique and
comfortable experience. The view of Mt. Everest, along with the views
of Thamserku (6,808m), Ama Dablam (6,856m), Lhotse (8,501m) and Tawoche
(6,542m) are spectacular. During this eight days trek, you trek to Namche
Bazaar via a series of pretty Sherpa villages in the direction of the
Everest up to the famous Thyangboche monastery, the spiritual canter
of the entire Khumbu region. Then the trek follows the Tibetan trade
route visiting the villages of Mende and Thame.
