Description

Making a brief circuit through the heart of the Himalayas, the 9-day Everest View Trek is the best way for visitors with time restrictions to get out into the Nepalese wilderness and see this iconic mountain!

In fact, the trek is among our most popular options and makes for the ideal adventure holiday for those who do not have the time to make the slightly longer Everest Base Camp trek.

The adventure begins after you fly into Kathmandu and transfer to the hotel. The following morning, we'll head right to the airport and fly to Lukla, where the real fun begins.

From this small mountain town, we will spend the next two days trekking toward the famed settlement of Namche Bazaar, enjoying the incredible scenes of mountains and woodlands en route.

It is here that we will receive our first views of Mount Everest. As we continue to approach the world's highest peak, the views will continue to get better.

The climax of the trip comes shortly after as we hike up to Tyangboche monastery, which at 4,100 meters is the highest one in the world.

From here, we take in even better views of Everest, Ama Dablam and many other iconic Himalayan peaks, before beginning our return to Lukla and then Kathmandu.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this unforgettable 9-day Everest View Trek through the heart of the Nepalese Himalayas!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Cami

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
