Lukla is the gateway to Khumbu. As soon as we reach Lukla our adventurous trek begins.  As the trek to Phakding along Dudh Koshi River Valley begins, the sights of beautifully painted stone mani walls manifest Khumbu culture. The views of Himalayan peaks Kusum Khangkaru and Kongde Ri brings us closer to high altitude nature. A short introductory trek of 3 to 4 hours will bring us to Phakding, which is the home to 500 years old Pemacholing Monastery.  Over night on local teahouse.

Today we begin the trek with uphill climb. We cross pass Rimshung Monastery and Uchhecholing Monasteries and get to the entrance to natural world heritage site Sagarmatha National Park. Trekking our way further in the lap of the himalayas, we arrive to Larbha Dobhan. A final steep uphill climb for an hour or so, which offers the first glimpse of Everest throughout brings us to Namche, the legendary Sherpa village of Khumbu. The day's trek is almost 6 hours.

Namche, the financial hub of Khumbu has modern facilties like banks, internet cafes, money exchangers and bars. We will stay in a fine teahouse in Namche. 

 

Day 03: Rest Day In Namche Bazaar For Acclimatization

We have already reached the altitude of 3440m; hence a day rest to get customized with high altitude is essential. However, we will walk to nearby hotspots around Namche that helps acclimatization and offers an opportunity of cultural exploration. Overnight in Namche.

 

Day 04: Trek To Tengboche

Trekking along the pleasant trails of Sagarmatha National Park with frequent sights of Himalayan peaks including Ama Dablam, Lhotse Shar, Taboche, Kangtega and Thamserku we arrive to Phunke Tenga.

On full board basis we will stay in a teahouse in Tengboche.

 

Day 05: Tengboche To Dingboche Trek

Climbing up along the stony steps we arrive to Devoche where the head office of Sagarmatha National Park settles.

Then the walk on flat trails with some gentle uphill and downhill walk we arrive to Devoche.

 

Day 06: Acclimatization In Dingboche

One more rest day in Devoche is necessary for high altitude acclimatization. However, a short day hike to Chukkung that takes around 3 to 4 hours would help you to properly acclimatize.
