Ama Dablam Base Camp is a popular trekking destination for trekkers who prefer to be in the Everest Region of eastern Nepal. It is a unique trail leading you to one of the third most popular base camps of Mt. Ama Dablam (4600m/15092ft).

The trail is filled with colourful flora and fauna along with the mighty Himalayas and the most popular settlement of the Sherpa, the abode of the Himalayas, which is Namche Bazaar.

Ama Dablam literally in the local language means ‘Mothers Necklace’. The mountain has such a lovely shape as if a mother is welcoming her children by spreading her arms. This will be an easy-going trek for those who lack time to be at the Everest Base Camp but prefer to be in the Khumbu Region to explore Mount Everest and the other Himalayas.

The mountain Ama Dablam rises with an altitude of 6812m/22349ft, making it one of the most viewed mountains while on the Everest trek and also one of the most magnificent mountains with its unique shape. Trekkers in this region will witness Ama Dablam mountain frequently during the trek. 

Making it one of the most fascinating mountains since it was scaled on 13th March 1961 by a group of an expedition led by Sir Edmund Hillary. So, Ama Dablam Expedition is possible if you have some climbing experience and good stamina.

The highlight of the trek is not only to be at the Mt. Ama Dablam Base Camp, but it’s an open site for every traveller to observe the culture along with the natural environment, vegetation, and the Himalayas.

The Sherpa’s’ hospitality, unique custom, and tradition will provide you with a new experience during the trek. Visiting the monastery, spinning the Mani (praying wheel), viewing the fluttering praying flag all the way, crossing the suspension bridges, etc will be the centre of attraction.

With the diversity of the region, the trek will start with a cultural tour in the Kathmandu valley, and flying to Lukla will be an exciting one. Throughout the trail, the diversity of vegetation and landscape will astonish you before reaching Namche Bazaar the capital city of the Sherpas, accompanied by modern facilities like ATMs, Banking, Hospitals, Schools, etc.

A day extra for acclimatization in the Namche Bazaar will help you to hike all the way to Everest view Hotel (3880M) and visit a museum nearby. With a couple of days' trek, you can reach Pangboche and then hike to Ama Dablam Base Camp.

During the expedition season, you will be able to spend time with the expedition group heading towards Ama Dablam.

Further, descending downhill, you will be at Lukla for your flight back to Kathmandu the capital city of Nepal.

Although the base camp of Ama Dablam is just 4600M, your journey will be towards the highest mountain on earth Mt. Everest. Visiting Ama Dablam Base Camp in 2022-2023 will take you to the lower altitude without fear of altitude sickness, as the highest overnight camp will be Pengboche 3930M.

Discover Altitude has a specially designed the Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek 2022-2023 itinerary with frequent field visits by professional staff, who carry more than a decade-long experience; to make sure the program goes according to the itinerary mentioned below.

If you want to continue Everest Base Camp with combined Ama Dablam Base Camp, the possible best itinerary can be Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek.  

For the convenience of our client minute detailed itinerary, cost, highlights, pictures, and the map has been provided. As it is an energetic trek in the Himalayas, so the trekkers can visit this trail every season throughout the year. Regarding the Ama Dablam Base Camp Trekking Cost, it varies on the number of days and people.

Ama Dablam Trek Difficulty

Ama Dablam which lies in the Everest region of Nepal is one of the most fascinating mountains in the entire Everest region. The trek and the trail to Ama Dablam Base Camp start after landing at Lukla airport, which is also the same for Everest Base Camp Trek.

Moreover, the Ama Dablam trail is a moderate trek as compared to the Everest trek as the last overnight camp for the Ama Dablam trek is Pengboche, whereas, for the Everest Base Camp trek, trekkers need to go further uphill 4 days to reach the base camp of Everest.

Till Tengboche, the trail will be easy going with the majestic views of the Himalayas and the surrounding hills and valleys of the Khumbu region, without any altitude worries.

Of course, trekking into the Himalayas includes ascending and descending all the way but in the context of the Ama Dablam trek, you will be following a smooth going well-maintained trail through the forest into the Himalayas.

This will be with an extra day for acclimatization in Namche Bazaar before reaching Tengboche, which will help trekkers to cope with the surrounding environment of the Himalayas.

Further, Pengboche is just 3930 meters and is also the last overnight camp before heading to Aa Dablam Base Camp. Trekkers need to hike from Pengboche to Ama Dablam Base Camp (4600m), this is a day tour because there are no alternative teahouses in the Ama Dablam Base Camp area.

All these make Ama Dablam trek an easy-going trail for all age groups and for a layman trekker as well.

Best Time to Trek Ama Dablam

Ama Dablam Trek is a lower altitude trail as compared to the Everest trek, so trekkers can trek to Ama Dablam Base Camp throughout the year.

The main trouble in the high Himalayas trek comes mainly during the winter when thick snow covers all the trail but trekking to Ama Dablam is possible even during the winter season.

For the magnificent views, floral and fauna, and clear blue sky with the spotless Himalayas we recommended trekkers choose January-April and August-December for Ama Dablam Trek.

This time of the year will be clear blue sky and higher visibility rate and no precipitation, and even in winter which is December and January, you will experience lesser snowfall due to lower altitude.

As the month of May-July is Monsoon season in Nepal, below Namche Bazaar, trekkers will experience some rainfall, which makes the trail slippery. Further, the view of the Himalayas will not be clear due to clouds.

Ama Dablam Trek Route

Ama Dablam Trek Route is the same as the Everest Base Camp, as both lies in the Khumbu/Everest region of Nepal. Trekkers will need to take a stunning domestic flight to Lukla and further hike all the way to Pengboche, the last overnight teahouse camp for Ama Dablam.

Further, the very next day, trekkers need to explore a day hike all the way to Ama Dablam Base Camp. This will be through a rocky trail but fair enough to hike. From Pengboche, the Everest trail passes further uphill for 4 days to reach Everest Base Camp.

The trail to Ama Dablam passes after landing at Lukla airport, this will take you to Phakding and then to Namche Bazaar. Namche Bazaar will also be your acclimatization place, spending two nights in Namche you will hike to Pengboche before visiting Ama Dablam.

Further, through the same trekking route which you followed all the way uphill, you descend back to Lukla on the 2nd day from Pengboche, before taking a flight back to Kathmandu.

Beautiful Nepal

Trekking with Narayan and his team was amazin! One of the best experiences of my life and aside from the vast landscapes and incredible views, the guides on this trip were so informative, humble and just beautiful people. I hope to visit with them again so day and can't recommend their tours enough!

A fantastic guide, an amazing Trek

WOW is all I can say about Ace. Udaya was an amazing guide and was perfect throughout the entire trek. He was friendly, super knowledgeable, and handled everything that I needed from gear to travel. They were always concerned about my comfort and seeing that a memorable trip was had by myself and my partner. I had a medical issue that caused him to both works into the night to get a resolution. Of course, being sick in a foreign country can be a scary ordeal, but it was handled professionally and worked out well.

I can say with certainty that they'll be at the top of my list for my next trip and I can say without reservation that I'd go with them again.

Excellent!

I am not an expert on trekking but I love it. From my experience, if you have a plan to trek, the important is you have to find a good guide and travel agency you can trust. I am lucky I found both. So if you have a plan in mind to go to Nepal.. just try to contact them. I believe that you will imprese on their service. 5 trips in Nepal since 2017.. until now I am looking forward to going back to trek with them again 😊

Q2. Comparison between Mt. Everest Base Camp and Mt. Ama Dablam Base Camp Hike?

Mt. Everest and Mt. Ama Dablam both lie in the Everest or Khumbu region of Nepal. Mt. Everest is the highest mountain in the world with an elevation of 8,848 meters above sea level; it is one of the most desired trekking trails for trekkers into the base camp of Mt. Everest which is 5,364 meters.

Apart from its altitude, it takes 11-days to complete the EBC (Everest Base Camp) trek from Lukla to Lukla (gateway to Mt. Everest). On the other hand, Mt.

Only the thing which matters is the time for trekking if we want to avoid any unpredicted circumstance it is better to trek during the month of August-November and February-May.

Q4. Can we trek Mt. Ama Dablam and Mt. Everest base camp together?

Ama Dablam and Everest lie into the Everest/Khumbu region of Nepal, the trail into both the mountain i.e. Mt. Everest and Mt. Ama Dablam starts from Lukla and also the trail are same only the point here is Ama Dablam comes before Everest.

If we can manage a couple of days extra, we will be able to accomplish both the Ama Dablam and Everest base camp together. For trekkers who wish to complete Everest Base Camp, combining both the mountains will help to acclimatize. 

So it will be better first to complete the Ama Dablam Base Camp and then head towards Everest Base Camp which will help any trekkers to acclimatize before being into the Everest and Kalapatthar.

Q5. What is the altitude of Ama Dablam Base Camp?

Mt. Ama Dablam which lies in the Everest region is one of the most beautiful mountains with an elevation of 6812meter/22349feet and the altitude of Ama Dablam Base Camp is 4600meters/15092feet but trekkers spend overnight in Tengboche 3930meters/12894feets.

From Tengboche, trekkers hike into the base camp of Ama Dablam because there is no other option to stay in the base camp but camping is possible, it depends upon the interest of the trekkers, as the expedition group uses tents and camp to spend a couple of night in the base camp before their summit into the Ama Dablam mountain.

Overnight in Tengboche which is a small village with tea houses and lodges will help trekkers to avoid any altitude sickness in the high Himalayas.
