Overview

Everest View Treks are ideal for individuals with limited opportunities, as well as elderly individuals who have a deep-seated desire to witness the majesty of Mt. Everest. This trek will be totally suitable for them. Physical fitness is not required for this trek.

Everest View Trek starts at Lukla (2828 feet) after a 25-minute scenic flight from Kathmandu and goes through Sherpa settlements like Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Khumjung Village, and Khunde Village. Visit the Khunde View Point, known as Hillary Viewpoint, at an elevation of Gong-Ri (4,200 m), from where you have a mesmerizing panoramic view of Everest, including Everest (8,848.86 m), Lhotse (8,516 m), Nuptse (7,861 m), Island Peak (6,165 m), Ama Dablam (6,812 m), Taboche (6,495 m), Cholatse (6,440 m), Tamserku (6,608 m), Kusum Kanguru (6,367 m), Kangtega (6,782 m), Kwangde Ri (6,187 m), etc. 

While walking from Khumjung to Phortse Village, you have more chances to encounter wildlife such as Himalayan goats, musk deer, Nepal's national bird, the Himalayan monal (Lophophorus impejanus), and numerous other little villages in the Sagarmatha National Park, which are listed as UNESCO Heritage Sites. Each village offers breathtaking views of the mountains. The trip follows the same trail, leading to the popular Everest Base Camp Trek. Nepal, the home of Mt. Everest, may be a destination on everyone's wish list. The 7-Day Everest View Treks are not only renowned for the world's most elevated mountains but also for the warmth and friendliness of the Sherpa people, providing an opportunity to immerse oneself in Sherpa society and their unique way of life, visit religious communities, encounter wildlife, and take in the breathtaking views of snow-capped peaks. From Namche Bazaar, a short walk uphill leads to a spectacular location (Everest View Hotel), offering breathtaking views of snow-capped titans, including Mt. Everest and the valleys below. Khumjung village, Phortse village, and Pangboche village are magnificent villages with the energizing look of the high mountains. Rhododendron-backwoods surround Tengboche Monastery (3,867 m/12,687 feet).

The Tengboche religious community is one of the grandest cloisters in Khumbu territory. The religious community strategically situates itself on a cliff, providing unparalleled views of the Everest scene. The perspective from this spot, seen further bolstering the best favorable fortune in the morning, is a completely exciting and shocking perspective of Everest (8848.86 m/29099 feet), Lhotse, Amadablam, Nuptse, Thamserku, Kangtega, Kusum Kangaru, Malanphulan, Ombigaichan, Tawoche, and other mountains. Tengboche Monastery (3860 m) is a profound community for Sherpa, where around 40 Tibetan Buddhist ministers are in residence. Every year, the Mani Rimdu festival is in October and November, according to the Tibetan calendar. After all, we trekked once more to Lukla. This trek also concludes with a 7-day Everest View Trek, providing an opportunity for further experience and amazement. The Everest Panorama Trek is also suitable in December due to the lower elevation.

Come and join Nepal Mother House for an adventurous trekking journey all around. This trekking journey offers a clear view of Mount Everest, providing a wonderful experience to cherish for a lifetime.  We serve you with the best you deserve.
