Everest trekking Nepal
This region, known as the Solu Khumbu, is famously renowned around the world as the home of the world's highest mountain. Mt. Everest, or Sagarmatha, as it is known in Nepal rises 8,848 meters above sea level. The hike to the base camp (EBC) for climbers seeking to reach that lofty summit attracts trekkers from all over the globe.
Solu Khumbu is the district south and west of Mount Everest. It is populated by Sherpas, an ethnic group that has achieved fame because of the exploits of its men on mountaineering expeditions. Khumbu is the name of the northern half of this region, which includes Everest and many of the world’s >8,000m (26,247 ft) summits. Most of Khumbu is part of Sagarmatha National Park. Solu, the southern portion is less rugged but it has many interesting villages and monasteries.
Forests of pine and hemlock cover the lower elevations of the national park. At elevations of around 3500 meters and above, forests of silver fir, birch, rhododendron and juniper trees are found. These forests provide habitat to at least 118 species of birds, including the Himalayan Monal Pheasant, the Blood Pheasant, the Red-billed and yellow-billed Choughs. Sagarmāthā National Park is also home to a number of rare animal species as well, including musk deer, wild yak, snow leopard, Himalayan black bear and red panda. Himalayan tahr, deer, languar monkeys, hares, mountain foxes, and martens. Himalayan wolves are also found in the park, however, they are rare and reclusive.
Above this zone all vegetation is dwarfed and shrub-like. As the altitude increases, plant life is restricted to lichens and mosses. Plant life ceases to exist at about 5,750 meters (18,860 ft) as this is the permanent snow line in the Himalayas.
The attractions of this region are the majestic mountains, the villages in the high mountain valleys, the associated monasteries, and the legendary inhabitants. But by far, the biggest draw to Solu Khumbu, and to Nepal, for that matter, is the trek to Everest Base Camp (EBC). The other places to experience here include Gorak Shep and Kala Patthar, the Cho La Pass, Gokyo and its lakes, Gokyo Ri, and the Renji Pass to the villages of the Bhote Koshi valley.
There are several trekking options that visit any combination of the above. The four treks that follow have proven to be the most popular, but any trek can be customized to include places or views that interest you. All the trekking described below are within Sagarmatha National Park.
Only a 40 minute flight from Kathmandu, all but a small percentage of the treks to the Solu Khumbu region originate or pass through Lukla, the "Gateway to Mt. Everest", whose tiny airstrip has perhaps the most harrowing approach in the world. If your heart is strong enough for the landing, the trek to Everest should be a walk in the park.
Jokes aside, there are four important considerations in planning a trek into the Khumbu region: Trekking here is more strenuous than in the Annapurna region. The additional cost of air transportation to Lukla makes the trekking a little more expensive. Third, you spend more time at higher altitude in this region. If you gain height too quickly, you have a very real chance of getting Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). The additional acclimatization days built into trekking itineraries here is a routine practice and goes a long way in preventing AMS. Obviously, more days adds cost. If you try to save money and rush the trek, you may get sick, have to turn back, rest or hike a few days at lower elevations to acclimatize properly, and try again (thereby spending the money you tried to save) or, worst case, end up sick enough to abandon the trek altogether and waste a more serious chunk of change. Finally, probably the most common malady is knee pain and strain on the long unforgiving descents. From EBC to Namche you will average a -4.75% grade for two and a half days. Your knees (and ankles) have to be up to the task. You would be wise to train on a hilly trail or walk stairs or bleachers for a month or two before taking on these high mountain trails.
Everest trek reviews:
In 2000 AD, I had first trip in Everest trekking Nepal. Before that i only heard about the everest trekking and behaviour of the Hotel owners for the trekking guide.

Everest trekking rough diary:
for the Everest trekking with my booking customer from Norway.I just know
the Name of the Bente but I did not know
her boy friend Name. Before they are
coming , I did the Annapurna base camp plus
Ghorepani poon hill. I back kathmnandu on 23
september from pokhara Bente and
her boy friend did not gave me the flight detail so, I was little confused
which flight they are coming,so I write their name card for pick up them. I did
not booking the domestic plane ticket to lukla because I did not got the flight
detail. Flight rate to lukla also expensive. Flight company of Nepal
increase the prices $ 40. Now one way
flight ticket to lukla cost $162 per person. I wait airport and finally I meet them
in 3 pm. They are from the Indian
airlines and coming from Goa to Delhi by flight and again delhi to kathmandu. It is very intresting
Goa-Delhi-kathmandu flight for the everest base camp trekking. Then, I welcome
them in the airport and manage the taxi to my living places Gongabu kathmandu.
I come back by motorbike then
escorting the taxi to my flat in
kathmandu. I thought I will not go to
Everest trekking and still remember the way of the Everest. I remember the
morning hiking up to the Kalapather in a chilly cold. Again , I remember up hills of the Namche after Jorsalle. In my
memories see the picture of the
ascend to Synboache from Namche early in
the morning before breakfast. Not only that, I see in my eyes way of the Thukla to lobouche which is
stony and up plus hot sunrise. So, I
felt little tired already or monotonous of the same way of the Everest
trekking.
So, I decided to send My
colleagues guide Mr. shiva and phone
him. But he told me,he have no time for
that. He have another customer on October 3 for the Everest base camp and
kalapather trekking. I cannot trust other unrecognized person for the trekking
in Everest. So, as my profession as a trekking guide, I choose or decided to go
Everest trekking. I mentality prepared
for Everest kalapather trekking with
my online booking clients. I
Again thinking the flight delay of the lukla
because of the could. I many times experience flight to lukla up and
down randomly because of the cloudy. Any way My job is trekking guide in Everest
region as well as other areas of Nepal . Finally I booked the ticket
of the lukla and paying $ 700 usd for two clients and mine. 8:30 pm on 26 September 26, 2013 our flight secdule made on

is the weather on the way trekking to Tanbouche. Then I told them “ will be
changing and forecasting. On the way again sunshine and visibility Mt. Everest ,
Amadabalam, Thamaserkhu, Kantega, Kongde.
In morning time I was fresh then yesterday. I felt very tired even rest
day in Namche bazzar. I think it is because of the less sleep or altitude. One
the way I meet the same girls whom I saw before the Namche Bazzar, she was
Nepali and citizenship of the England .
She together this time with another Guide single clients. I speak with her and
talking about other trekking region of Nepal.she immediately answers me she is
from London and
have no time further traveling. Again I ask the cross question to her- if you
are in Nepal , do you like to visit Everest region. She
answers witty she was small at that time. I again said that- is it fashion to
trekking? She denied this things. She said it is not fashion, we just like to
escape busy society.she boldly told that. I said again it is due to the
globalization of the Nepalese society. Many student of Nepal
have been different country when they like to visit Nepal they become like a tourist.
Then she quiet and give continues her walking. I like to share the previous
trekking experience with her. She seemed interesting to listen. I heard journey will be short if something
interesting. Her Guide is also from
the Gorkha, we introduced with each other. Other Nepalese and foreign ladies also bring the Guide with package for the Base camp Everest and kalapather
