Everest Base Camp is in a northeasterly direction about 150 miles from the capital of Nepal, Kathmandu. It is located in the center of the Khumbu region of eastern Nepal. Everest Base Camp trekking trails are the veins that connect you to the heart of the Himalayas and the top of the world, Mount Everest. It is a wonderland for most hikers that comes with everlasting glory.
The Khumbu Valley has been the homeland of the Sherpas. This hike is not just a hike; It is the journey above the clouds. Explore the challenging trekking trails around the world’s highest mountain for an amazing visit and once-in-a-lifetime cultural experience. The Sherpa culture of hospitality has always been appreciated by tourists visiting Everest Base Camp.
