But, adding an Everest Base Camp Trek to your Nepal itinerary also makes it a dream holiday destination. The venture introduces you to the breathtaking natural beauty and cultural diversity.
Mount Everest is the highest mountain on earth above sea level. It lies in the Mahalangur section of Nepal’s Himalaya range standing at a height of 8848 m. The name “Everest” came after Sir George Everest. He was an English surveyor who was responsible for measuring the height of Everest. Likewise, the peak was first summitted by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in 1953. They were part of the ninth British expedition to Everest under the leadership of John Hunt.
It is a goal to stand beneath the tallest peak in the world. This trek provides gorgeous vistas of Mounts Cho Oyu, Ama Dablam, Makalu, Lhotse, Nuptse, and numerous others in addition to Mount Everest. The Everest region’s pure beauty encompasses distinctive topography, lush woods, rivers, lakes, glaciers, and other natural features.

Safety and fitness
Everest Base Camp Trek is really a demanding trek. However, it does come with a few challenges. The road from Lukla is steep and rugged. The level of difficulty entirely depends on your physical and mental fitness. But you can build your muscle strength, and make your body flexible by practicing some light exercise, running, and jogging. The trek to the base camp is all about walking 5-6 hours per day for at least 1 week which can make this trek slightly challenging. The trails are rugged, steep, and maybe snowy on off-seasons. The maximum height in this trek is Kalapatthar 5,545m. There is a high risk of mountain sickness. The primary cause of altitude sickness is a decrease in the amount of oxygen in the atmosphere. It’s important to carry handheld oximetry. Oxygen saturation below 75% may be a risk.

Travel insurance
Trekking to high altitudes can always be risky. Travel Insurance is something you might want to do before trekking anywhere. Sometimes in emergency cases, people need to be evacuated through a helicopter and get medical service. So, in such cases, your travel insurance will be bearing the cost for you.
Seeing all these benefits, the government of Nepal has made travel insurance mandatory thing before trekking. However, it is very important to mention the heights and all the places you will be reaching during your trek. Your insurance entirely depends on the details you have provided earlier. Travel insurance costs you around 150$ which is good for 1 month.
Visas/passports
If you are not a Nepalese or Indian citizen, then a visa and a passport are mandatory. You can get your Nepalese Visa at Tribhuvan airport in Kathmandu. The passport must hold a visa of a minimum of 6 months.
