The ultimate trek to the top of the world, the Everest Base Camp Trek is a bucket list trek for adventurers. The 14-day journey through the Himalayas takes you to the highest mountains in the world, and if you’re physically fit and up for the challenge, it’s one of the most incredible experiences of your life. You’ll trek through an astonishing landscape, from forests to glaciers and high passes, and see parts of the Himalayas that most tourists never get the chance to see.

The Everest base camp trek is the most extreme trek that the average person can take on. It takes about eight days and covers an average of more than 17,000 feet in elevation. As the highest mountain on Earth (Mount Everest), the trek has several complex challenges for many hikers. In addition to the altitude, there are a number of other factors that must be taken into account to ensure that the trek is achieved safely.
