Everest Base Camp Short Trek: the most beautiful trek in Everest Region!

“Settle for nothing less because all you need to do is aim higher.” Step up along the rugged path through a popular mountainous trail to Everest Base Camp – the world’s top.

The challenging paths, charming villages, and wild mountains are all set to awe you with their charm and magnificence. Be a part of this iconic journey and capture the glory of the mountains, travel, and fun.”

Everest Base Camp Short Trek is an alternative to the standard Everest Base Camp Trek that can be accomplished within 13 days. It is nothing different than Everest Base Camp Trek in terms of glory, challenge, and fun but with this, you can save your two days and utilize it for some other activity in Nepal or return to your home earlier.

Everest Base Camp Short Trek is an exemplary trek with a hypnotizing beauty. It takes you to the top of the world and allows you to admire the grandeur of sky-dominating peaks. The tall peaks like Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Nuptse, Mt. Cho-oyu, Mt. Thamseku, Mt. Ama Dablam, Mt. Tawache, and many other mountains in Everest region are a pride that the Everest Base Camp Short Trek offers.

How to reach the Everest Base Camp?

Your journey to the Everest Base Camp starts with a short flight to Lukla. Initiating the Everest Base Camp, we follow the trail that leaves along Phakding, Monjo, and Jorsale to Namche. From Namche, we climb up higher to Ttengboche and Dingboche. Further, we head to Gorekshep via Lobuche and march progressively toward Everest Base Camp. Finally, we hike up to Kalapatthar to admire the close-up magnificence of the mountains in that region and then back via the same path to Lukla.

Is Everest Base Camp Short Trek safe like Everest Base Camp Trek?

When it comes to safety, Nepal Intrepid Treks takes care of everything. You don’t have to worry about a thing. Everest Base Camp Short Trek is designed to eliminate the contingency days in the standard package, not the acclimatization days. Therefore, no risk is attached to Everest Base Camp Short Trek due to the shortening of the trekking days.

How high is Everest Base Camp?

Everest Base Camp lies at an elevation of 5364 meters from the sea level. The highest point of Everest Base Camp Short Trek is Kalapatthar at an elevation of 5545 meters.

The glory of being there at the Base Camp!
