Trek to Everest Base Camp - Find and Book from New Baneshwor, Kathmandu
Your Everest Base Camp Trek in Nepal begins in spectacular fashion with a flight to the world‑famous Lukla Airport, then winds along the scenic Dudhkoshi River as you meet your trekking crew and settle into the rhythm of the trail; you’ll pass traditional villages like Phakding, Benkar and Manjo and enter the protected landscape through the Sagarmatha National Park Entry Gate before arriving in the vibrant Sherpa hub of Namche Bazaar, the bustling marketplace of Khumbu where world‑class eateries, bars and shops line the streets and mountain views of Thamserku, Kwangde and Kusum Kangaru form your daily backdrop; because acclimatization is essential at altitude, you’ll take your first break in Namche Bazaar with short hikes to viewpoints such as the Everest View Hotel or to nearby communities like Khumjung Village, setting you up for the next phase of the trek while enjoying the unique culture and high‑altitude market life that define this iconic route.
