Itinerary

KATHMANDU – LUKLA - PHAKDING

We will take an early morning transfer to the airport and fly to Lukla (2880m). This 35-minute flight provides a magnificent start to the trek as it highlights the snowline of the Himalayan Ranges in the north before the rugged landing at Lukla airport. It is said that this is one of the most spectacular flights in the world. Upon arrival, we will meet the Sherpa team, and while the team reassembles the equipment for distribution to the Porters and Jhopke (a cross between and cow and a Yak used to carry loads), there will be a short lunch break. During this break, guests are welcome to explore this bustling town on top of a hill with rows of houses, hotels and shops lining both sides of cobbled streets. After lunch, the trek starts by following a trail leading northwest through a narrow street which immediately descends from the end of the village into the open hillside. The trail is well defined, and there are many shops and lodges catering to the trekkers. The trek this day is a very easy one and ultimately descends to the river at Phakding (2652m). Flight- 35 min Total trekking time 3-4 hours Elevation: Lukla 2700m, Phakding 2600m Dinner and Overnight at Phakding.

PHAKDING - NAMCHE BAZAAR

Today we will continue north following the Dudh Kosi river and on to Jorsale where we enter the Sagarmatha (Everest) National Park. From here it is a short walk to the confluence of two rivers, the lmja Drangpa (Imja Khola) and the Nangpo Tsangpo (Bhote Kosi) followed by a steep climb (for about 2hrs.) to Namche Bazaar, the main town in the Khumbu region.
