Mt Everest base camp

Mt. Everest Base Camp Trek 2025

April 6th - 19th, 2025

Overview

Mt. Everest… the tallest mountain and one of the most magnificent sights on earth. Located on the Nepal, China border of the Himalayas, Mt. Everest is a place not everyone will be lucky enough to see.

What Makes Our Trip Unique?

You will actually get to spend the night at the Mt. Everest Base Camp! Rather than just hiking to the camp and leaving, we will get to spend almost 2 full days at the camp for an immersive experience. Concerned about carrying your gear? Don’t worry, we’ll have someone else carry all our gear up the mountain! All you need to carry is your day pack with an extra layer, water and snacks. To help us acclimate to the altitude, we will have 2 days of scheduled rest. Enjoy a spectacular helicopter ride down from the base camp for the ultimate finish.

The Journey…

Our Mt. Everest Base Camp 2025 Adventure for All will be the journey of a lifetime. Experienced local Nepalese guides will take us on an incredible journey to the foothills of the mightiest mountains in the world. We’ll traverse through rhododendrons, pine forests, rivers, Sherpa villages and Buddhist Monasteries to reach our ultimate destination. The Himalayas are best viewed on the main route of the Khumbu region. Get ready for a closeup view of the world’s greatest mountains, Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Thamserku, Tawache and others.

Hoping to see amazing wildlife? Our route takes us along the highest wildlife reserve in the world, ranging from 9,000 ft. to the top of the world. The Sagarmatha National Park covers an area of 1,148 sq. km. of the Himalayan ecological zone. Sagarmatha National Park is a World Heritage Site, remarked for its distinct natural, cultural and landscape characteristics.

Be prepared for great hospitality and acceptance. The teachings of Sherpa Buddhism talk of a spiritual understanding between all beings. Khumbu comes from its guardian deity Khumbila Tetsan Gelbu. The literal translation is “Khumbu country god.”

If you’re ready to start your ascent to the roof of the world, join us for our Mt. Everest Base Camp 2025 Adventures for All!
