Day 3: Trek from Phakding to Namche Bazaar

Trek Distance: 10 km

Trek Time: 6-7 hours

Namche Bazaar Altitude: 3475 m

Today, we will start our hike early in the morning through the Himalayan meadows. Following the trails alongside Bhote Koshi River, we will cross the suspension bridges and walk through the rocky uphill trails. After around a couple of hours of trek, we will reach Monjo, where you can purchase the Everest Base Camp Trek permits if you haven’t obtained it yet.

We will push our final hike for today from Monjo, crossing Larja Doban and Jorsalle village. And after around 6 to 7 hours of total hike, we will finally reach Namche Bazaar.

Namche, also known as the ‘Gate to Everest’ is a bustling town of Sherpa featuring cross culture, both from Nepal and western world. We will be staying at a hotel in Namche where we can experience traditional Nepali dishes, such as Dal, Bhaat, and Tarkari.

And needless to say, Namche is a perfect place to have the magnificent views of Mount Khumbu Yül-Lha (Khumbila), Everest, Ama Dablam, and Cho Oyu.

Day 4: Acclimatisation Day at Namche

We have already been over 3000 meters above sea level and our body will already be exhausted due to long walks. So it is time to take a rest and acclimatize at Namche on the fourth day.

Usually, acclimatization is done to adapt yourself into the rising altitudes to avoid any risks of altitude sickness. Since Namche lies at high altitude, trekkers must acclimatize before pushing themselves to higher altitudes.

You can go on acclimatisation hike to Syangboche Hill (12,795 ft) from here you can have a view of Lhotse, Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, Thamsurku, Konde Ri, and Khumbila.

We recommend you to trek gradually, eat healthy, stay hydrated and take enough rest.

Day 5: Trek from Namche to Deboche

Trek Distance: 11 km

Trek Time: 5-6 hours

Deboche Altitude: 3,740 m

Trek from Namche to Deboche takes around 6 to 7 hours, so we will be starting our hike early in the morning after a warm breakfast.

Day 7: Acclimatization at Dingboche

This is the second acclimatization day at Dingboche after Namche Bazaar. Located at 4410 meters above sea level, Dingboche is one of the most beautiful places in Khumbu region. However, situated over 4000 meters, it also poses significant risks to altitude sickness. That’s the main reason why we acclimatize at Dingboche.

Best Season to do EBC Trek

The best time to do the EBC Trek might vary from one person’s perspective to another. But if you consider the weather patterns and scenery, the ideal time to go for this trek is during the Spring and Autumn season. Here are the reasons why:

Spring (March to May) is the most stable season in Nepal, where there is minimal rainfall and snowfall. Similarly, the temperature is mild, ranging from 15 C to -2 C. Similarly, the weather offers a clear and crisp scenery with fewer clouds in the sky, allowing you to have the clear views of the Himalayas, traditional villages, forests, and rivers.

Moreover, the forests change, and leaves and flowers go in full bloom offering a colorful environment during Spring.

Autumn (September to November) is another best time to do the Everest Base Camp Trek. The weather patterns are almost similar to Spring and temperature ranges around 17 °C to -8 °C on average.

Off-Season Treks

Off-season treks are conducted in monsoon and winter seasons, but they are not recommended to intake. Since the weather and climate are not much aligned with human’s expectations, it can pose significant risks.

For example, winter in the Everest region temperature drops down below 0 degree Celsius. The heavy snowfall will block the routes making it hard to navigate and reach the base camp.

Also, during the monsoon, the heavy rainfall makes the route very slippery and the natural hazards like landslides and downstream floods are very common. This will make your trekking very challenging to complete.

However, if you want to avoid crowds, then you can consider trekking during the winter. 

The ideal time for you will depend on your individual preferences and priorities. Do you prefer clear skies and mild temperatures? Or are you okay with colder conditions and potentially some snow? 

Climate and Weather during the EBC Trek

Spring: In spring, the weather is stable in Everest Base Camp. The average temperature during spring ranges from 15°C to -2°C. In the meantime, the wind howls at the speed of around 14 km/h.

Summer: During summer, the temperatures show a rise from the beginning of June, ranging from 22°C to 3°C.

The rainfall at the Everest Base Camp also increases during the monsoon time to about 190 mm and wind speed is also expected to be 16 km/hour.

Autumn: Autumn features temperature ranges from 17 Degrees Celsius to -8 degrees Celsius.

Winter: Winter is the time when the temperature drops below 0 degrees Celsius. In the low elevation area, it is quite pleasant, but the heavy snowfall is awaiting for the higher elevation. On average, the temperature in the daytime can reach -4°C maximum and -17°C minimum in the night.

Difficulty Level of The Route

Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the adventurous and exciting journeys but we recommend trekkers to go through the training and prepare accordingly. The Everest Base Camp trek is regarded as the ‘Challenging’ trek due to its location and altitude.

Everest Base Camp is located at 5364 meters above sea level, where there is thin air, high air pressure, and low oxygen. These features can lead you to suffer from altitude related problems like AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness), HACE (High Altitude Cerebral Edema), and HAPE (High Altitude Pulmonary Edema). That’s why we recommend you acclimatize before you start the journey to high altitudes.

Similarly, the Everest Base Camp Trek itinerary includes a day to day hike, which is around 6 to 7 hours. Walking for such a long time will exhaust you physically and mentally. So with lower physical fitness, you are most likely to fail to reach the base camp. However, you do not need to be an Olympic athlete to reach the Everest base camp. Anyone with a positive mindset and good health can do this trek.

Altitude sickness is undoubtedly the major concern during this trek. So proper preparation with your physical and mental being is very important. In the meantime, you must be prepared with your gears and essential equipment.

We also have listed preparatory methods to successfully reach Everest Region without having your health put to test. Find the details below!

Required Preparation for EBC [Physical Fitness, AMS]

A) Physical and Mental Preparation

As mentioned earlier, trekkers must prepare wisely before starting the Everest Base Camp Trek. Safety is the first priority, so you must assure that you are approaching the region safely with proper preparatory methods. If you are well prepared with all the necessities, you can not only complete this journey successfully but also return with a lot of learnings and memories. Here are some details on how you can prepare for the Everest Base Camp Trek:

Cardiovascular Exercises

We recommend all trekkers to go through cardiovascular exercises for this trek. Like we mentioned before, our itinerary includes a day to day hike of around 6 to 7 hours. And it is surely not for the beginners.

Trekkers must be physically fit and should feature physical endurance, stamina, and strength to hike for such long hours. So cardiovascular exercises are the one which will benefit for sure.

It is crucial to go through aerobic training, running, jogging, and cycling for effective physical strength. 

Strength Training 

Strength training is the most for the Everest Base Camp Trek. Since you must walk for more than 6 hours daily, your body needs full strength to complete the trek.

If you are physically weak, then you cannot continue the trek properly. Similarly, you are most prone to altitude related illnesses if your body is weak.

Full-body sessions 1-2 times per week is a good start. You can start your training at the gym or at home, which should focus on the main course exercises and workouts. 

Altitude Training

Altitude training is best because Everest Base Camp Trek takes you to over 5000 meters above sea level. It is also essential to stay out of altitude sickness’ danger.

Being at the top physical form and practicing hikes with slow pace and acclimatization are some of the things which can become helpful for this trek. 

You can check mountain guides, and doctors can provide advice if you experience altitude sickness symptoms. You can join climbing sessions as well.

B) Altitude Sickness Awareness

Altitude sickness is the major concern during the EBC trek for sure. It is a situation that most of us may experience when we ascend to high altitudes too quickly, which results in the decrease in the body’s oxygen levels.

Acclimatization is very important to avoid altitude sickness. You should be very mindful about your body and focus on a gradual adjustment to the low oxygen levels by spending more time at the lower altitudes and ascending slowly, especially above 3,000 meters. This requires regular breaks and not climbing above 1,000 feet (300 meters) at one time after that altitude.

Of course, proper hydration is the most important matter in the prevention of altitude sickness. Drink lots of water daily as it will help you to prevent dehydration. Always avoid any caffeine and alcoholic products during the trek as they can hamper your body in adjusting to the changing heights. 

If you’re prone to altitude sickness or planning to ascend to very high altitudes, diamox, an acetazolamide drug, can be of great use. However, these medicines must be taken under the prescription of the doctors.

If you are affected by altitude sickness symptoms like headaches, nausea, dizziness, or fatigue then inform your guide and drop in elevation and go to the medical expert in case your feeling worsens.

How To Reach Kathmandu

If you are looking for the easiest way to get to Kathmandu, then flight is an ideal option. You can book a flight from India to Kathmandu at Tribhuvan International Airport.

There are several operators that operate the flight such as Air India and Jet Airways. It should take anytime around 1 to 1.5 hours to reach Kathmandu from India (depending on which city you are from).

You should acknowledge the fact that there are no railways that connect Nepal from India. So you must opt for the alternatives.

By distance, Bhairahawa and Raxaul borders in Nepal are the closest landmarks, so you can take a train from India to these places first. After that, you can travel either by flight or bus to get to Kathmandu, which takes a few hours.

There are several train stations from Howrah Station near Kolkata to Raxaul Junction, which should take you to your destination in a few hours.

Traveling by road is another form of transportation that can be used to reach Kathmandu from India. You can use the Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) that operates the Maitri bus to Nepal’s capital.

Apart from that, you can take a bus to Raxaul or Bhairahawa instead of train and then head to Kathmandu, changing buses. Considering the travel time, it takes anywhere from 7 to 10 hours from Delhi, Varanasi to reach Raxaul. So you must stay one extra day at the Nepal border before heading towards Kathmandu. Buses, jeeps, and hired cars from Siliguri or Gangtok will take you to Kathmandu in about 14-16 hours.

History of Everest Base Camp

Trek to Everest Base Camp has been one of the most adventurous and fascinating journeys since the 1920s. Since the first expedition led by George Mallory and Andrew Irvine in 1922, which eventually failed, the Everest region has been calling the global trekkers to its lap.

Actually, there are two base camps in Everest, North and South Base Camp. North Base Camp is located in the Tibetan Side, which stands at 5,150 meters and the south is located in Solukhumbu, Nepal at 5364 meters above sea level.

Despite two attempts by the George Mallory team that led to the demise of Mallory himself, Everest was never conquered until 1953. In 1953, Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa successfully climbed Mount Everest, also bringing the insights of Everest Base Camp to the limelight.

After that, thousands of people have reached Everest Base Camp, while only few have reached the top of Mt. Everest. Hillary and Norgay established Everest Base Camp at the mountain’s base, providing a strategic storage location for their supplies. 

Nowadays, Everest Base Camp has been a commercial hub for trekking and other adventurous activities. And every year, thousands of trekkers from around the world visit this location, despite its physical and mental demands.
