Description
The Everest region is one of the most popular in all of Nepal and heading on an Everest Panorama Trekking expedition is one of the best ways to see it and all of its glory!
Over the course of our 11 days together, we will hike through the heart of Sagarmatha National Park, visiting numerous villages and getting some of the best views of Mount Everest from any point on Earth.
The journey begins in Kathmandu, where we will whet our appetite for adventure by heading on a city tour, visiting the three main UNESCO World Heritage sites: Pashupatinath, Swayambhunath and Durbar Square.
From here, we will fly north to Lukla and begin trekking into the Himalayan wilderness. As we go, we will hike through thick rhododendron forests, along rugged mountain ridges and through verdant river valleys.
In Sagarmatha National Park we will have the chance to visit local Sherpa villages such as Namche Bazaar, Phakding, Lukla, Mongla Danda, and Tengboche, all of which are buzzing with local people and international tourists.
Namche Bazaar is the second stop on the trip and brings our first incredible views of Mount Everest. From here, we will continue to approach the world's highest mountains, getting our absolute best views of the peak from the famed Tengboche monastery.
By the time we've seen the sunrise over the most iconic peaks of the Himalayas and are hiking back down toward Lukla, you will already be planning your next Nepalese holiday getaway.
So what are you waiting for? Book now for this unforgettable 11-day Everest Panorama Trekking adventure!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
