Everest View Trek is a short trek that offers you great views of the Mount Everest (8848m) along with the other Himalayas in the Everest region. The trek allows you to relish the unique Sherpa culture while trekking through the Sagarmatha National Park.

March to May during spring and September to November during autumn are the best times for the Everest View Trek. Moreover, it is a short and easy trek. So, even children and elder people can easily do the trek.

Every October, Tengboche Monastery hosts the colorful Mani Rimdu festival, which is a culmination of Buddhist celebrations with a religious gathering, songs, ritual dances and enactments of the lives of legendary figures. Visitors are always welcomed to partake in the festivities and many trekkers book their trek to coincide with the festival. Tours of the monastery are conducted every afternoon for visitors. Tengboche lies on the very popular trek route to the Everest region.

Know before you go

  1. This activity is subject to weather conditions on the day. If weather is not suitable for flying, the flight may be rescheduled for the following day
  2. If the flight is cancelled, you can wait for next day or Alternative way to next destination
  3. Check all of your necessary things to carry
  4. Warm clothes and comfortable walking shoes are recommended

A few notes

As of late 2019, flights between Kathmandu to Lukla have been reduced, and I heard maybe even cancelled, due to congestion and runway maintenance at Tribhuvan International Airport. Rather than flying from Kathmandu, airlines are busing people to Ramechhap airport, which is a 5 hour drive from Kathmandu. From here, you fly to Lukla.

Flight times are very fast (lasting only 12 minutes) and less likely to be cancelled or delayed due to unfavorable weather conditions. When booking your trek with a tour company, confirm your flight details between Kathmandu and Lukla.
