Overview

The Everest View Trek is a short, sweet yet luxurious trek in the Everest region. If you are on a tight schedule, then this trek is the one for you. As the trek explores the Khumbu Valley, you can also enjoy the biodiversity in the Sagarmatha National Park.

The trip begins with a short flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. After landing at the Tenzing Hillary Airport in Lukla, you head north towards Phakding. As the trail continues along the Dudh Koshi River, you enter the Sagarmatha National Park and reach Namche Bazaar. Then, you explore the nearby areas and hike to the Hotel Everest View. Since the trail only reaches the hotel, you’ll find the route relatively easier than the other ones in the Khumbu Valley. The hotel provides a luxurious 360o view of the Everest range, which is hard to find elsewhere in this region. Then, you trek to the Khumjung village which is the highest point on the trek. You can relish amazing views of Lhotse (8516m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Mt. Everest (8848m).
