Kalar Pattar Trek (Everest Base Camp)

Named after Sir George Everest, the British Surveyor General of India at the time that ‘Point XV’ was first identified, Mount Everest which lies on the border of Nepal and Tibet is a name synonymous with awe-inspiring bravery, adventure and heroism .

To the Tibetans and Sherpas, she is known as Chomolungma – Mother Goddess of the Earth, whilst the Nepalese call her Sagarmartha. But to the world in general, she is the highest mountain on the planet and as such is the focus of trips from those keen to trek her flanks and foothills or even attempt her summit.

This 15 days trek takes you to the Kala Pattar peak beside Base Camp and follows the traditional route up the Khumbu Valley, taken by so many of the infamous mountaineers of the past and into the homeland of the remarkable and charming Sherpa people.
