Everest Base Camp Trek (EBC) and Ama Dablam Base Camp Combo Trek are unique packages designed by Discover Altitude. This is one of the most fascinating trekking destinations for the trekkers who prefer to be in the Khumbu Region of eastern Nepal covering the most popular base camp i.e. Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp.

It is a compiled trail leading us to the first and third most popular base camp in the Himalayas of Nepal, the second being the Annapurna Base Camp. This is a unique two-in-one program to be in the majestic Himalayas.

The trail is filled with colorful flora and fauna along with the mighty Himalayas and the most popular settlement of the Sherpa, the abode of the Himalayas. 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. Ama Dablam Hike will be an easy trek for travelers but the Everest Base Camp won’t be for many trekkers.

To make it easy going into the Himalayas, trekking to Ama Dablam Base camp will help to acclimatize trekkers before reaching Base Camp of Everest. So completing both the base camp in one itinerary will be profitable for any adventurous trekkers who are in the Khumbu Region of Nepal.

The mountain Ama Dablam rises with an altitude of 6812m/22349ft, making it one of the most viewed mountains while in the Everest region, trekkers in this region will witness Mt. Ama Dablam frequently during the trek, making it one of the most fascinating mountains since it was scaled in 13th March 1961 by a group of an expedition led by Sir Edmund Hillary.

Whereas Mt. Everest is one of the highest mountains in the world rises with an altitude of 8848. 86m/29032ft, was scaled on 29th May 1953 by Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary.

The highlight of the trek is not only to be in the Everest Base Camp ((5364m/17598ft) and Ama Dablam Base Camp (4600m/15092ft), but it’s an open site for every traveler to observe the culture along with nature and Himalayas including being at the top of Kala Patthar 5545m/18192ft.

The Sherpa’s’ hospitality and their unique custom and tradition will provide us 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 center of attraction.

With the diversity of the region, the trek will start with a cultural tour of the Kathmandu valley, flying to Lukla will be an exciting one for travelers. Throughout the trail, the diversity of vegetation and landscape will astonish one before reaching Namche Bazaar the capital city of the Sherpas. 

Accompanied with modern facilities like ATMs, Banking, Hospitals, Schools, etc. a day extra for acclimatization in the Namche Bazaar will help us to hike all the way to Everest view Hotel and visit a museum nearby.

On a day trek, we can reach Tengboche and then hike to Ama Dablam Base Camp. During the expedition season, we can enjoy time with the group of expedition heading towards Ama Dablam.

From Ama Dablam Base Camp, we will ascend for our next awaited journey to EBC and Kala Patthar. Further descending downhill for a couple of days we will be at Lukla for our flight back to Kathmandu the capital city of Nepal.

Discover Altitude has specially designed two in one program of Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek Itinerary with frequent field visits by our professional staff to make sure the program goes according to the itinerary mentioned below. 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, trekkers can visit this trail every season throughout the year. Regarding the Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp Trekking Cost, it varies on the number of days and people.

Useful Info

  • Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world with an elevation of 8848.86 meters/29032ft above sea level, whereas, Mt. Ama Dablam stands with an elevation of 6,812 meters/ 22,349 feet above sea level.
  • Mount Everest is also known as Sagarmatha ‘top of the world’ in the Nepali language and ‘Chomolungma’ which means mother of the world’ in the Sherpa language. Whereas, Ama Dablam literally means Mother’s Necklace, as the mountain is shaped in a way as if a mother is welcoming her child.
  • Mt. Everest was first scaled by Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary in the year 1953 AD, whereas Mt Ama Dablam was first scaled on 13th March 1961 by a group of an expedition led by Sir Edmund Hillary.
  • Mt. Everest and Mt. Ama Dablam both lie in the Sagarmatha National Conservation Area of the Khumbu region/Everest region, which is the UNESCO natural world heritage site.
  • Trekkers can only trek up to the base camp of Mt. Everest which is 5364 meters and the base camp of Ama Dablam 4,600m/15,092ft, at this elevation we can observe the expedition group arranging for the summit to the top of Mt. Everest 8848.86 meters and Ama Dablam 6812 meters.
  • Till the Base Camp of both Mt. Everest and Ama Dablam, we can trek using a normal trekking permit, but to summit the top of Mt. Everest and Ama Dablam, we need a special permit and training.
  • Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp hike start from Lukla which is 2,840m/9,318ft and the highest elevation for the Ama Dablam Base Camp for overnight camp is Pengboche 3,930m/12,894ft. Whereas, for Everest Base Camp the highest overnight stay is Gorakshep 5140 meters.
  • We can take a helicopter to and from Lukla airport via Kathmandu airport but not the normal domestic flight.
  • Normally trekking to the Everest region starts from Lukla and ends at Lukla, keeping in mind the total trekking distance to be covered is 150 km in 13 days which includes two extra rest days for acclimatization one in Namche Bazaar and the other in Dingboche
  • Trekking elevation also varies from Lukla to Kalapatthar, as the trekking starts from Lukla which is 2840 meters,s, and Kalapatthar which is 5545 meters, this will be the highest elevation of the entire trek.
  • The highest elevation for the overnight stay in the Everest Base Camp trek is Gorakshep 5140 meters which is the final highest point to spend a night.
  • The Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam trek start from a moderate hike to a strenuous hike but two nights extra for acclimatization will help any trekkers to accomplish the entire trek successfully.
  • Throughout the hike to Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp, accommodations are from attach-toilet to normal, it depends mainly on the altitude we are at. The higher are in the normal tea houses/lodges we are supposed to stay and also the higher we are the number of tea houses and lodges diminishes.
  • The only living community in the Everest region is the Sherpas community, they are the aboriginals of the high Himalayas and follow Buddhism as their religion they are very friendly, loyal, and helpful.
  • The highest elevation of the Ama Dablam hike is 4600 meters, making it easier than Everest Base Camp, so trekkers can complete the hike in a more relaxing way than EBC without being worried about altitude sickness.

Accommodation during the Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Trek

Accommodation during the trek is the most frequently asked question by trekkers. To speak the truth there are many lodges and tea houses being operated in the Himalayas region but are limited by the occupancy of rooms and also the number of hotels.

As the Himalayan region are a conserved area, only a limited number of hotels/lodges/tea house can be seen but it depends upon the altitude where we are. The more we ascend the less number of hotels and lodges can be seen, further as the elevation increases the level of accommodation decreases. Normally in Lukla and Namche Bazzar more hotels and lodges are found than the other overnight place.

The accommodation in the trek will be basic, with attached toilet in some of the places below the 3500m, here are some of the basic information about the lodges/hotels and tea house during the trek to the Everest Base Camp according to the Day To Day itinerary to EBC:

Lukla

Lukla is the gateway to the Everest region and the only airport in the Himalayas, which is around a 30-minute flight from the main airport of Kathmandu. The air distance between Kathmandu and Lukla is 136 km making it a 30-minute flight.

The airport in Lukla is situated at an altitude of 2840m, is a small airport with a runway of 527m which makes only small aircraft fly. It is also the main town to carry the goods received from the city to transfer to the higher region of Everest.

This makes Lukla a big and busy town in the mountain, keeping all this in mind the local has been operating different standards of hotels in Lukla from basic to standard, from attaching the toilet to normal, around 300 tourists can stay in the surrounding hotels in Lukla making it comfortable stay in.

Phakding

Phakding is the first overnight place for trekkers in the Everest region. It is a small village where trekkers prefer to stay while ascending to the Everest region only. The distance between Lukla and Phakding is 8km, which takes around 4 hours to trek.

Apart from these the hotels and lodges in Phakding are limited but some are resort-type and comfortable to stay with attached toilets and hot shower, during the peak season of trekking booking the hotel will be good to avoid sleeping in the dining hall.

Namche Bazaar

Namche Bazzar is one of the capital towns of the Himalayan region and a center for trade for the locals. It is 11 km from Phakding, Sufficient numbers of hotels, lodges, and resorts are available in the Namche. 

As the town is mainly used for acclimatization by the trekkers and also while descending trekkers prefer to say a night extra making it a three-night stay spot but for locals, it is a center of trading.

Different categories of hotels and lodges are available from basic to attach toilets from hot showers to electric heater rooms. In the entire region, Namche provides sufficient facilities for trekkers.

Pangboche

Pangboche is a comparatively small village as it lies in the Himalayas and 6 km far away from Namche Bazaar, less numbers of lodges and tea houses are operated but during the heavy snowfall, the number of lodges and tea houses may decrease.

In Pangboche basic facilities of hotels and tea, houses are available but a hot shower is possible in every lodge and tea house. There are some lodges which provide attach toilet, hot shower, and electric heater bedroom as well but need prior booking.

Dingboche

Dingboche is a very popular high-altitude acclimatization place for all the trekkers, so trekkers prefer to stay 2 nights in Dingboche to acclimatize. It is 11 km away from Tangboche on the lap of the Himalayas, it is a big town with sufficient numbers of lodges and tea houses to accommodate more trekkers but only a limited number of the hotel provide attach toilets inside.

Normally hot shower is possible in all the lodges but outside, due to its high elevation the lodges and tea houses are not blessed with electricity facilities but they use solar power to generate electricity and charge batteries, accommodation is basic but good for any trekkers.

Lobuche

Lobuche is 8 km further uphill into the Himalayas from Dingboche, it is a small village mainly operated as tea houses and lodges for tourists. There are around 6 lodges but very basic, hardly some of the rooms have a private toilet inside but in the freezing winter better to use the toilet outside.

Upon request, some lodges provide hot water for bathing which needed to be paid extra. None of the rooms has heater facilities but provides blankets to keep warm. Overall in the high mountain areas, this sort of accommodation is fair enough to make us sleep well.

Gorakshep

Gorakshep is one of the highest elevations for any trekkers to be in the Everest region and final overnight at this height. It is 12 km from Lobuche making it the last highest human settlement. Some lodges are operated during peak season but during the snowy month, it is very rare to see any lodges.

The lodges and tea houses are very basic but comfortable enough to sleep, no private toilet inside the lodge, it is all common toilets and bathrooms in the lodges but the lodges and tea houses provide blankets to avoid freezing cool.

Pheriche

Pheriche is a small village that trekkers enjoy while descending from the Everest Base Camp. It is 12 km lower than Gorakshep, but more lodges and tea houses can be seen operating than in the Gorakshep.

Pheriche village has around 14 lodges and tea houses, some of them provide private toilets and hot shower facilities as well. Accommodations are basic but better than Gorakshep, they do provide blankets to make you sleep well.

Those are the villages where trekkers enjoy their overnight while trekking in the Everest region of Everest Base Camp.

Amazing tour to everest

This was my short visit to Nepal and was my first as well. I always wanted to explore the Himalayas from close range but I expected the fact that I am not fit for the trek.
Kumar the MD of Discover Altitude Treks recommended me to explore the Himalayas in a short span of time and was really an amazing 4hours trip with landing at the Kalapatthar. Will always recommend those who are for a short time to Nepal.
Thank you Kumar for making my dream come true.

Great trip to Everest Base Camp

The trip to Everest Base Camp with my friends was the most amazing adventure. It was very well organised by Kumar and the team. The guide and the Porter they had provided us during our entire trip were amazing. I would highly recommend Discovery Altitude Pvt. Ltd if somebody is willing to go for the trek to Nepal in the future.

Trip to Everest Base Camp

This was my first trip to Nepal ...heard lots of exciting stories from my parents who have been to Nepal for the Annapurna base camp trek in 2008...Kumar was their guide ...now he has been operating his Trekking agency named Discover Altitude Treks.
With my parent's advice, I booked a solo trip to Nepal for the Everest base camp trek...
Kumar personally came to pick me up at the airport...had a lovely typical welcome from him... the evening we had dinner and he briefly told me everything thing related to my trek and the gear required..
Was excited to be with kumar for the trek...next day had a wonderful experience at the dangerous airport of Lukla...
Although I was worried about Altitude sickness...but was lucky as kumar told me do's and don't in high altitudes.
Finally, I made it to the base of Mt Everest and also Kalaphattar...now back to home in Australia...
Thanks to Kumar and his team of Discover Altitude for taking care and making sure that my dream of being at the base camp is accomplished.
Many many thanks and highly recommend these guys...and thanks to my parents for the best advice.

Everest base camp trek

I along with 5 other friends wanted to visit Nepal for Everest Base Camp Trek and with google, we found Discover Altitude as popular trekking and tour operating company run by experts. We decided to choose their expertise and we were right with our choice. Finally, we booked our EBC trek for August's first week. We were warmly welcomed at the airport in Kathmandu. Experienced fantastic city sightseeing with Kumar and started our dream journey to Everest with a fantastic guide and one of the founders of Discover Altitude Mr.Narayan.he was superb with his knowledge about the Himalayas and very well experienced and renowned with the local dwellers. He helped us a lot in such an altitude and took great care of us no matter how small it was. He wanted us to reach the base camp of Mt.Everest in an easy and relaxing way without any health issues and we did. Thanks to the entire team of Discover Altitude for their effort, help, and support..highly recommended this guy. and we will never hesitate to take them the second time for the Manaslu trek.

Highly experienced and superb team

I was looking for the trip which is far from the manmade concrete forests and so-called developed city and culture. After some research found Discover Altitude a local based travel company and had short and sweet inquiries with the MD Kumar Lamsal excellent in understanding our interest and recommended us to do Everest Base Camp Trek.
We accepted but with some hesitation and worrying about high altitude we flew to Kathmandu and Kumar was there to welcome us. The very next day we had excellent city tour guided by Kumar himself and we were Enlighted with the culture history and religion of Nepal. Never to miss this, highly recommended. We flew to Lukla and started our trek with Narayan as our Guide. We had excellent experience and reached EBC with 2 extra days of acclimatization.
Throughout the trek we had the magnificent view of the Himalayas, flora and fauna, Sherpas hospitalities, religion, culture. Narayan was the fantastic trekking guide with almost two decades of experience, he has huge knowledge about the Himalayas and helped us by providing comfortable lodge and tea house. And he was more like a mother he took care of us and made sure we were physically fit with the altitude.
Thanks to Discover Altitude and the team, we will be back for the next trip very soon.
Highly recommended Discover Altitude as a travel consultant.

Amazing trek, best guide and team

If you are thinking of trekking in this part of the world look no further than this company formed by our guide from our Everest base camp trek, Narayan and his partners.

We met Narayan in 2018 and couldn’t have been luckier with our choice of guide, his knowledge, skills, love and respect of his country and its inhabitants is amazing and it really made our trek, his attention to detail in making sure that each of us were comfortable at all times was very reassuring.

He and his team walked with each of us at all stages, medical checks, food, accommodation, safety, nothing left out, he even assisted other parties and was training some of his porters to be guides at the same time!

The trip really was one of the best things I have ever done on my travels, and yes Narayan, Annapurna is still in my list so I will be in touch again soon, wishing you all the best with your new company, I am sure you will make it a success, take care my friend, love to your family. Rich

FAQs

Q1. How difficult is Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Trek?

After the successful summit of Mt. Everest the highest mountain in the world by Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953 and Mt. Ama Dablam in 1961, Mt Everest and Ama Dablam became known to the world.

People’s desire to stop at the base camp increased rapidly and with the development of time new trekking routes were formed and Lukla airport was constructed in 1964 AD, this made the Everest Hike less time-consuming and easily accessible to mountain lovers.

So trekking into the Everest Base Came is now only 130 km in terms of distance and 11 days of the trek, of which 2 days is a rest day for acclimatization making it only 9 days of the trek and Ama Dablam Base Camp is on the way to the Everest Base Camp and much easier with the altitude of 4600 meters; that means in an around 15 km per day of the hike which includes 8 hours of a daily hike but getting to Ama Dablam means some 20 km extra hike from Pangboche.

The hike to the Everest Base Camp starts from a moderate hike too strenuous but with frequent break and rest for tea/coffee etc making it a relaxing and enjoyable journey to the foothill of the giant Mt. Everest.
