Hiking - Everest Base Camp (EBC). Trekking and Backpacking trips

The ultimate hiking experience. Mount Everest, rising above the rest in the Nepalese Himalayas, offers the trip of a lifetime. Loaded with a variety of hiking opportunities, it attracts outdoor adventurers from across the globe. Soaring to 8,848 meters above sea level, it is the highest mountain in the world. By hiking Everest you’ll capture unforgettable memories.

Fusion of culture

The collection of traditions and customs of Nepal have been cultivated over the centuries, with them particularly being largely influenced by Indian and Tibetan influences. This is due to the strong historical trends of trade, war, and migration. Yet despite its relatively small size, the state of Nepal is home to a large number of ethnicities, languages and customs.

Hardcore wildlife

Due to the extreme altitude of Mount Everest, very little flora and fauna are found higher up the slopes. Yet some can be found. The black jumping spider can be observed at heights of 6,700 meters, making it the highest resident on Earth. Bar-headed geese soar at high altitudes, along with the chough bird, while yaks are a common sight along with the snow leopard and Himalayan black bear.
