15-Days Everest Base Camp Trek or famously known as the EBC Trek is one of the most incredible trekking journeys to the base of the highest mountain in the world. This is the gateway to Mt. Everest also known as ‘Sagarmatha’ in Nepali and ‘Chomolungma’ in Tibetan and is very popular among trekkers.

The trail to Mt. Everest Base Camp will lead you to the diversity of nature and culture and is once in a lifetime experience with the enchanting view of Thamserku (6623 meters | 21729 feet), Ama Dablam (6812 meters | 22349 feet)), Lhotse (7600m | 24934 feet),and of courseMt. Everest (8848.86m/ 29032 feet).

Apart from all this, the culture and lifestyle of the Sherpa people are of great interest. Sherpa’s are the only human inhabitant communities of the Himalayas. The entire high Himalayan region which includes the Everest Region is one of the oldest settlements of the Sherpa people, who are also known as the people of the Himalayas.

Their age-old unique lifestyle, culture, religion and always welcoming attitude and gesture will make you visit this region again and again. Moreover, the Sagarmatha National Park, a UNESCO-listed site is a protected zone of this region and is an asset for the people by protecting flora and fauna.

The magnificent view from Kala Patthar (5545m | 18192ft) is incredible to observe the Himalayan range which will definitely make you feel like being in paradise.

Thanks to Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary for their journey to the summit in 1953 AD, which lead this region known to the people around the world. Now, for many, it’s once in a lifetime experience and wishes to visit this region.

Everest region is one of the spiritual lands on earth mainly influenced by Buddhism, hanging praying flags, praying wheels and moreover, and the beating of monastic drums and pipes by the lama further purifies the region, which can be seen and heard from a far distance.

15-Days Everest Base Camp Trek 2022-2023

Everest a popular name for many and trekking to the base of Mt. Everest is a dream to some. This was not an easy destination some decades ago, but now with the development of infrastructure everything has changed and the trail to Everest has shortened and can now accomplish in a short span of time.

Everest base camp trek which used to be a 4-week long trek is now only a 9-days hike from Kathmandu to Kathmandu. This shortness of the trail has made Everest feasible to many and now their dream is no more a dream, it has become a reality.

Till 2019 AD, every year around 280,00 trekkers used to hike all the way to Everest base camp this includes the entire Everest region but due to the global pandemic of covid-19, trekking to all the region of Nepal was closed by the central government and the local government, this restriction was applicable for almost 8-9 months but now everything seems normal. Trekkers are allowed to trek to all the regions of Nepal including Everest but with some safety measures.

Travellers coming to Nepal can now get an on-arrival visa with a 72-hour corona negative report and further, they can trek to Everest base camp with the same 72-hour corona negative report.

There is a sufficient number of hospitals in Kathmandu where trekkers can test their corona with nominal fees of 15-20 USD.

Although there are fewer trekkers in the Everest region these days, the eagerness and desire of the trekkers can be seen. All the lodges and tea houses are open on the trail and trekkers are welcome. The government has already started vaccinating tourism workers and hotel staff, as their safety will take trekkers to remain safe.

This effort of the government and the local administration has made trekking to the Everest base camp possible even during this harsh pandemic situation.

Trekkers without any worries can now trek to the Everest base camp in 2022 and also 2023 AD, but need to make sure the required sanitiser and mask are carried by the trekkers themself. Although there are sanitisers in the tea houses, hotels, restaurants, shops, and lodges having their own will be benefitted; as during the hike we may frequently need to use those.

15-Days Everest base camp trek in May

Trekking to Everest base camp during the months of May is one of the best times of the year as this month is best both for trekkers and climbers. The weather stays clear so you can get a clear picture of the mountains beside it has a warmer temperature thus you don’t have to deal with extremely cold weather.

During these months you also can enjoy the beautiful rhododendron flower which will amaze you with its different beautiful colours as well as you can see the tents at Everest base camp with climbers preparing to go up on Everest. 

Everest Base Camp 15-Days Trek Distance

Everest Base Camp is a short-distance trek into the Himalayas from the hill. This will take us to the highest altitude of 5545 meters | 18192 feet at Kalapatthar and 5364 meters | 17598 feet at Everest Base Camp from Lukla 2840 meters | 9317feet. Trek to Everest Base Camp starts after landing at Lukla airport and ends at the same Lukla until we take a flight to Kathmandu.

This Everest Base Camp Trek covers a distance of 130 km approximately, starting from Lukla and ending in Lukla. Apart from this, the time to cover the entire trek is just a 9-days, this excludes 2- extra acclimatization days.

As the entire Everest trek is towards high altitude, trekkers cover 10-13 km per day to accomplish the Everest trek.

15-Days Everest Base Camp Trek Route

As we all know how popular is Everest trek is for trekkers, climbers, and explorers. This popularity of the Everest region is a gift from Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary when they first scaled Mt. Everest in 1953 AD.

That was the time when Everest Base Camp trek was a 4-week long trek to reach just the Base Camp of Mt. Everest, through the only trekking route via Jiri.

Now the time has changed and the means of transportation too, which have shortened the entire Everest base camp trek to just 9-11 days from Kathmandu to Kathmandu. This shortness of the Everest trek is due to the construction of the domestic airport at Lukla, also known as the gateway to Mt. Everest.

There are two different trekking routes to Everest Base Camp trek, one is via Jiri, a classical trek route to Everest which was followed by sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa in 1953 AD.

This trek route to Everest base camp takes 24-28 days to complete the entire trek to the base camp but can be shortened to a week if we take an alternative flight from Lukla to Kathmandu.

And the other popular trek route to Everest Base Camp which is 9-11 days is to take a 30-35-minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and vice versa. This short route to Everest is one of the most popular routes as well because this is less time-consuming and cheaper as compared to the classical Everest base camp route.

15-Days Everest Base Camp Trek Difficulty

Everest base camp trek starts from a moderate hike to a strenuous trek, the trek itself starts upon arriving at Lukla 2840m | 9318ft. Apart from these Everest Base Camp 5364m | 17598feet and Kala Patthar 5545m | 18192ft will be our hiking place, where we are not stopping overnight.

It is an easy-going trek, where experience forehand is not required because trekkers will be hiking all through the well-maintained trail. The important point to be noted in the Everest Base Camp Trek is the altitude because we will be trekking at a high elevation where the level of oxygen will be lower than at the normal altitude below 4000 meters. As the elevation gets higher, we feel tired to hike uphill, to get rid of our tiredness we need to be physically fit.

Trekkers will be hiking all through the well-maintained trail with frequent stops for lunch, tea, coffee, etc. as there are restaurants on the trail apart from our overnight camp.

If trekkers want to spend the extra night for acclimatization or to make the trail shorter, then there are a sufficient number of lodges as well. Only the thing is we need to make sure the distance covered in a single day and the altitude we are supposed to stay at overnight should be good enough for our body to acclimatize.

If all this instruction is followed your age and locality of the nation will not a burden to complete the Everest Base Camp Trek, only the thing that matters is the physical and mental outcome with strong determination.

15-Days Everest Base Camp Trek Cost and Services

Everest Base Camp is one of the most popular trekking and touring destinations in Nepal and also the most preferred trekking destination around the globe. This is so because of the diversity of ecology, culture, and vegetation at such high altitudes.

Everest Base Camp Trek Cost varies from local base inbound and outbound companies when you choose a locally based company for Everest Base Camp Trek; the price is much cheaper. Further within the locally based company, there is variation in cost for Everest Base Camp Trek.

We normally arrange multiple options according to your physical fitness level, age group, and also your restricted time frame in Nepal.

Best Time to Trek 15-Days Everest Base Camp

Mainly Everest Base Camp Trek is for every season...in spite of all this, every trekking trail in Nepal has some best times to visit.

Trekking in Everest base camp is better during the month of September-November which is Autumn and March-May which is Spring. This is so because of a better view of the high Himalayas with clear blue sky and better visibility as well.

Trekking to Everest Base Camp is also possible during winter which is December and January, only the equipment required will be increased.

As the temperature in the high areas may go below -10 to -15. So warm clothes are highly recommended during winter.

But to speak the truth rainy season is not recommended for the Everest Base Camp trek which is June and July, below Namche Bazaar normally we can experience rain during the rainy season but the views are up in the Himalayas may be cloudy although it doesn’t rain over there.

Trekkers can be seen in the Everest Base Camp region throughout the year but the best time will be Autumn and Spring with less snowfall and varied vegetation and high visibility.

Useful Info

Everest Base Camp Trek Cost

Everest base camp trek has become cheaper than it used to be some decades ago. The cost for the Everest base camp trek is determined by only two factors i.e., the trekking route we take and the number of days we select.

On average Everest Base Camp Trek costs around 1500-1800 USD, this includes a two-way flight from Kathmandu-Lukla and Lukla-Kathmandu, three-time meals, accommodation, water, internet, hot-shower, trekking permits, etc.

Apart from this if we join a group the price can further be deduced. To make the Everest base camp trek a bit cheaper, it is highly recommended to have at least 2 trekkers. This reduces the price of the porter, guide and also the accommodation in the tea house and lodges.

Everest Base Camp Trek with a Local Based Company

While travelling any part of the world, the first and foremost question which comes to any traveller is Can I trust a Local company? This is a normal question to any traveller and will always remain.

Now to clarify your doubt, the first thing we need to know about the local-based trekking company of Nepal is: In the context of Nepal, operating a trekking company is not an easy task.

The agency and the trekking staff member must be highly experienced and should go through all the legal procedures before filing an application to operate. 

Further, members from the Nepal Tourism Board and Central Bank of Nepal personally, according to their time but both separately visit the allocated destination to check the location of the company.

Then, they provide a letter for further process, which normally takes a couple of months. As per the rules of the government, local companies operating trekking and tours in Nepal must deposit a certain sum of money, making sure that in time of need or any fraud attempt government can compensate the clients and impose a fine.

Further every year, the local company needs to update its status, and every month they need to do the same with the central bank of Nepal also known as Nepal Rastra Bank.

Government is very strict when it comes to travel and trekking agencies, and this is mainly to make sure travellers are safe enough while visiting Nepal.

We, Discover Altitude, are a team of highly professional groups engaged in the tourism sector of Nepal for more than 2 decades.

Our experience travels further than our content, our motto is to strengthen the local dwellers while travelling, and we focus on sustainable tourism to promote and maintain the nature and ecological diversity of the region we are trekking to.

Apart from all these, Discover Altitude a local base trekking and tour company provides multiple options for any travellers; we prefer safety while trekking with us.

Moreover, while choosing a locally based company, your effort to strengthen the local economy will be highly appreciated, and also it is cheaper in terms of money as the international company charges a hectic amount of money and further sells the travellers to a local company.

They earn only as a middle man. This is what we have experienced for the last 2 decades.

So it is always suggested to choose a locally based company with a highly experienced team, who are more familiar with the local lifestyle, language, culture, and religion because they always have beautiful stories to tell you about the region you prefer to visit and Discover Altitude is one of them.

Everest Base Camp Trek Packages

Although there are two trekking routes to Everest Base Camp but the most popular one is to take a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and hike further uphill towards the base camp and follow the same or different trail to descend back to Lukla and further take a flight to Kathmandu. Due to its remoteness and diverse landscape to reach the Everest region is not an easy hike for many.

Keeping all this in mind there are numerous trekking packages to reach Everest base camp. All these packages are applicable to any age group and gender, to experience hikers to a layman, etc.

Discover Altitude has numerous Everest trekking packages which can be useful to any trekkers depending upon their physical level, age, time frame, budget, etc.

Some of the popular trekking packages are: Everest Base Camp Trek-15 days, Everest Base Camp Trek 16-days, 9 days Everest Base Camp Trek, Everest Base Camp for Senior Citizens, Kalapatthar Trek, Everest Base Camp Trek via Gokyo and Chola-Pass, Best Everest Base Camp Panorama Trek, Everest Base Camp and Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek, Everest Three Pass Trek, Short Everest View Trek, and Everest Base Camp Helicopter Tour.

These are some of the best-selected packages for the Everest Base Camp trek, further trekkers can customize and can select their own tailor-made packages of interest.

  • Mt. Everest lies in Sagarmatha National Conservation Area which is the UNESCO natural world heritage site.

  • Throughout the hike to Everest Base Camp, accommodations are from attach-toilet to normal, it depends mainly on the altitude we are at. The higher 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 Sherpa community, they are the aboriginals of the high Himalayas and follow Buddhism as their religion they are very friendly, loyal, and helpful.

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

EBC with Discover Altitude, perfect adventure

Discover Altitude was extremely helpful from start to finish!
Friends of ours suggested using Narayan and his services and after completion of the trip we are happy to say: it was perfect!
You can tell that he has 20+ years of experience trekking up to the EBC aa he knows EVERYTHING from lodges, cafes, and the surrounding places
Being fluent in English, he would give every detail of the mountain peaks, their heights, and how and when they were first summited.
What is extraordinary was the way Narayan looked after our group and provided extra services that aren’t easy to get in those remote locations.
He went out of his way to make sure we were well cared for and it was an experience of a lifetime we will never forget.

FAQs

Q1. How difficult is Everest Base Camp Trek?

After the successful summit of Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world by Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953 Mt Everest became known to the world. People’s desire to step to the base camp of Mt. Everest 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 for acclimatization making it only 9 days of the trek. That means around 15 km per day of the hike which includes 8 hours of daily hike.

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.

Q2. What is the success rate of Everest Base Camp Trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek is an easy hike into the Himalayas with well-maintained trails, beautiful villages, tea houses, lodges, hospitals, ATMs, banks, etc. it is normal hiking at a nominal pace. If we are physically and mentally fit for the 9 days hike then anyone can step into the base camp of Mt. Everest.

In terms of its success rate, 90 percentage of the trekkers step into the Everest Base Camp but we need to follow the same itinerary, skipping some overnight camp to further shorten our trekking distance may lead us to altitude sickness which may result in the downfall of the entire trek.

Q3. Can we trek to the Everest Base Camp individual/single?

There is no problem for any trekkers in hiking to the Everest Base Camp individual/single, as there is no restriction to trek single in the Everest region apart from some of the restricted region of Nepal like Manaslu and Upper Mustang region.

If we can manage permits for trekking to the Everest Base Camp, we can trek alone but some problems may arise while being single trekkers in the high Himalayas of Nepal.

Among them, some are like accommodation while trekking, if we are single trekkers then we may have a problem in finding room in the tea house and lodges because mainly the trekking guides and the travel agencies have direct access to the lodges and tea houses in the trekking route they booked the room before their arrival, so the lodges and tea houses give priority to the agencies and the guide for their business because they are the regular travellers.

Apart from accommodation facilities, during the snowfall the trail from Namche Bazaar is less crowded will almost no villages on the way trekkers may easily mislead them to the wrong trail because of heavy snowfall as the trail will be blocked by the snow.

This may create a problem for the individual trekkers and also if any difficulty arises while in the high altitude there are fewer possibilities of being rescue for individual trekkers.

Q4. Are there a sufficient amount of accommodation facilities in the Everest Base Camp trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek is filled with lodges, tea-house, and some excellent hotels till Namche Bazaar. Now, normally we may find Wi-Fi facilities in many of the lodges/tea houses (if depends upon the weather as well).

Everest Base Camp Trek is all to the Sagarmatha Conservation Area, so there is a restriction on the number of lodges and tea house to be operated and also the tea house and lodges are with a number of limited rooms and basic facilities due to the restriction by the conservation committee but to the lower altitude till Namche Bazaar we can find a sufficient number of lodges and tea house, as we descend uphill the number of tea house and lodges diminish due to high altitude and other problem including harsh weather condition.

Q5. Is there Wi-Fi facilities in the Everest Base Camp Trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the most popular trekking routes in Nepal, every year thousands of trekkers prefer to trek to the base camp of Everest, due to its popularity the mobile operating company of Nepal mainly NTC and Ncell have installed their network tower in some of the regions with 4G facilities.

Trekkers can buy the Sim card of their desire network to use the internet during the trek with some data packages, but the reliability of the internet facilities also depends upon the weather condition of the mountains. Apart from these, the lodges and tea house also provide Wi-Fi facilities which are payable for day use.

Q6. Can we charge our electronic gadgets in the Everest Base Camp Trek?

Every lodge and tea house in the Everest region have a sufficient amount of electricity facilities, till Namche Bazzar they use a small community hydropower project for electricity but as we climb uphill the lodges and tea house use a solar panel for the supply of electricity, by paying some reasonable amount of money we can charge our mobile, camera and other gadgets.

But we need to may sure there will not be any charging facilities ( charging point) inside the room of the hotel, all the charging point will be at the hotel counter, so we charge our gadgets and pay the money.

Q7. How much does it cost to complete Everest Base Camp Trek?

Everest Base Camp trek is not as expensive as it used to be before the operation of the Lukla airport, now with the operation of the Lukla airport number of days to accomplish the Everest Trek has diminished to just 11 days trek from Lukla to Lukla which is the starting point and the ending point.

But normally we suggest travellers make their stay in Nepal for almost 14 days if their intention is only to trek to Everest Base Camp. This will make you easy for not being hurried for the international flight back home because sometimes due to poor weather condition the flight to and from Lukla to Manthali airport remain close for a day if this happens then we might be required to book a helicopter to or from Lukla which can be arranged on sharing basis with other travellers, in this case, the price may vary with the actual cost.

If we have sufficient time for the Everest Trek then it will cost you around 1500 to 1700 USD which includes all the permits required for the trek, a two-way domestic flight from Manthali to Lukla and vice versa along with the transportation from Kathmandu to Manthali airport and from Manthali airport to Kathmandu along with your guide and porter to assist all the way to the entire trek and also your accommodation and 3-time meals during the trek only and a couple of nights stay in Kathmandu hotel on BB basis ( Bed and Breakfast)

Q8. Can we drink normal water while in the Everest Base Camp Trek?

Water plays a vital role in the trek, now when it comes to Everest Base Camp Trek drinking a sufficient amount of water is very important for any trekkers, it helps to cope up with dehydration and also to help fight altitude sickness. If you are using some medicine for the trek as Diamox to accomplish the trek then we need to make sure the amount to drinking water level must be increased.

Now talking about the drinking water system in the Himalayas, normally local people including guides and porter use normal water to drink from river, stream, tap water, etc but for travellers, we do not suggest to use the normal water, it may cause diarrhoea, stomach problem, etc. to protect yourself from any upcoming problem trekkers can carry water filter with them or water purifying tablets which can be found in medical stores around Kathmandu.

Apart from all this, every tea houses, lodges in the trekking region has the facility of purified drinking water for the travellers, this can be refilled into your personal water bottle but for that, you need to pay extra which varies from the region and also the altitude you are in an average it may cost you from 1 to 3 USD for a litre of purified drinking water in the Himalayas.

Q9. Is it safe to trek Everest Base Camp ?

This is one of the most frequently asked questions by our valuable clients, as per your information, since the time when Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary first summit Mt. Everest in 1953, everything has changed. They were the ones who popularized Mt. Everest (8848.86M) that can be conquered. Since then lots of changes have occurred in the Everest region also known as the Khumbu region.

Now the trail is easy as compared to some decades ago, local people are helping to keep the trail maintained, the government is acting with their budget spending in these areas. Hotels, tea houses, lodges, hospitals, banks, ATM’s, police and army checkpoint has been established to make sure the safety of trekkers goes on accordingly and in time of need and natural disaster.

So, with the development of information and technology now there is access to the telephone and the internet. Thus, we can assure that Everest Base Camp is much better and safe than the 1953’s.

Q10. Is Nepal safe for women to travel?

Nepal is one of the safest countries for any travellers while being in Nepal you can experience this but need some safety as well. What we suggest in Nepal for solo female travel is that while being in Nepal doesn’t try to experience local transportation for a short distance because in short distance travel there is a limited number of public transportation and passengers more and if you have to stand because of overcrowding of passengers, you may feel you are being touched.

Maintain your full sleeve clothes this will be a sign of respect, wear proper clothes even while trekking. Make sure your clothes are not tight enough to expose or give the shape of your body parts, this may cause you trouble in some places (mainly remote areas).

In the city area normally Nepali women wear comfortable clothes as per their requirement but while being away from the city, clothes do matter a lot, in some areas even the local women may not feel comfortable with the exposing clothes travellers wear.

While trekking alone, make sure you are at your destination before it is dark because we say ‘day is yours and night is theirs’. If you follow all these instructions you will certainly feel very safe and comfortable travelling in Nepal.
