The occasion of the New Year and Christmas just comes once a year, and most people from Western and developed countries are always busy with their business. When you have a longer holiday during New Year and Christmas, Everest Base Camp Trekking will be the perfect way to celebrate this occasion in a different way than in any other year. The weather is a bit cold, but when you are well-equipped for a destination that offers amazing mountain panorama views with fewer crowds, what could be better?
Your EBC New Year and Christmas trip starts in Lukla after a scenic 25-minute flight early in the morning from Kathmandu. Then, you will head to the Everest Base Camp through Phakding, Namche Bazaar, and Sherpa Village, with their unique culture and breathtaking mountain views. This region is renowned for being the habitat of the snow leopard and the enigmatic "Yeti". While traversing the trail, you will encounter numerous suspension bridges spanning the same river; in the meantime, you may find yourself stranded for several minutes due to Yaks traffic. The porters from the low area (Solu) are carrying heavy loads to sell in Namche Bazaar during Saturday Market. The trail leads right into the heart of the Himalayas: the famous historical trading town of Namche Bazaar, the Buddhist monastery Tanbuche, the world's highest farm, Dinbucge, and Everest Base Camp.
“Mt. Everest (8,848 m), Everest Base Camp (5,364 m) itself, Kalapatter (5,550 m), Khumbu glacier, and icefall are the main attractions of this trek. Probably, Everest Base Camp New Year Vacation is one of the most well-known in the world due to its breathtaking beauty, which includes fantastic views of the southwest face of the colossal Mt.
