Jiri To Everest Base Camp Trekking

Overview

The Jiri to Everest Base Camp Trek starts with a sightseeing and preparation day in Kathmandu. The following day you start your journey to Jiri. The 8-9 hours bus drive along the Arniko Highway is made pleasant by the great views of Langtang and Ganesh Himal peaks on the north. In the early days of the trek, Himalayan views will not feature very much, but shortly after leaving Junbesi the trail rounds a spur and a sudden panorama of big mountains opens up ahead; you catch a first, though only brief sighting of Everest, Lhotse, Kusum Kangguru, Thamserku, Kangtega and Makalu. There’s promise in that teasing view, but its not until you reach Namche that the promise will be fulfilled.
At Namche Bazaar, we enjoy the Sherpa village, its culture and monasteries, the mountaineers and wild life museums on the acclimatization day. Ahead we follow the classical route to reach up the base camp of the world’s highest peak and also to the famous vantage point, Kala Patthar, where a marvelous 360-degree panorama of the Himalayas awaits us. After achieving our target of Everest Base Camp, we walk back down to Lukla for a return flight to Kathmandu.

My wife and I visited Nepal as a family with three children (ages 2,4 and 5) for 6 weeks. We had a wonderful time and great guidance from all the people of the organization. As from our arrival we were picked up at the airport and we were able to do a lot of things: Trekking for 8 days in Annapurna Region, visit Chitwan Nation Park, visit Kathmandu and the local school, trekking for 2 weeks in Solukhumbu region (Peaky peak trek) and with a stay of 6 days in the home village of most of the guides and closing in Bhaktapur. Special thanks to Tirtha(General Manager), Dawa(Guide), Ang dawa(Guide), Pasang and Phurdoma(Porter). I would truly recommend Bright way Trek.
