A perfect short walking trip for novice and elite trekkers who do not want to trek higher to witness Mount Everest,  the tallest peak on the earth. Trekking in the mountains but also rejoicing at the unique Sherpa culture, Buddhist monasteries, prayer-engraved walks and rocks along the, ever roaring glacial rivers, Himalayan wildlife, etc and a comfortable lodge-to-lodge trek makes it possible for everyone.

Everest View Trek Overview

Everest View Trek, also commonly known as Everest Panorama Trek, is a carefully designed, fantastic short hiking tour to the Everest region, offering a great chance to capture Nepal’s beauty, meet the friendliest and most welcoming Sherpa people, and experience unique culture and tradition in a short period. This short trek to the Everest region is an easy and short sojourn trip, modified for those visitors who wish to view Mount Everest within a short time. Nepal is a home of welcoming people, the Amazing Himalayas, and various cultural diversities. This blend of outdoor adventure and cultural exploration is a great way to experience the Himalayan Mountains—the world’s most impressive mountain range—and will surely create lasting memories and provide you with a satisfying sense of accomplishment. 

Upon arriving, you can have a sightseeing day to explore the exotic city of Kathmandu before flying into the remote mountain town of Lukla, where we begin our teahouse Everest View trek into the Khumbu region, the land of Sherpas. Situated at an elevation of 2800 meters, the views of the Himalayan Mountains from Lukla on a clear day are awe-inspiring. Once there, we follow the legendary Everest Base Camp Trek route that journeys through Sherpa villages, across high mountain passes, and remote valleys. En route, we pass through so many Buddhist Prayer Walls, Manis, Chortens, Stupas, and Buddhist monasteries and begin to appreciate the unique mountain culture found in the Himalayan foothills. The views become more brilliant as we venture up the Dudh Kosi River to Namche Bazaar, the main gateway to the Everest region, which treks at 3400 meters. We spend a night next to the Thyangboche monastery (3870 m), from where you will observe spectacular views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Kangtega, Kwande Peak, and many other small peaks. 

If your time allows, we can drive to Chitwan to enjoy wildlife in the Chitwan National Park after the completion of the trek. Chitwan National Park is one of the finest wildlife reserves in Asia, located in the plains of Nepal, the Terai. The park, with a total area of 932 km, is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It’s the home to many animals, birds, and plant species, including one horn rhino, different kinds of deer, sloth bears, leopards, tigers, crocodiles, and monkeys, as well as many different species of butterflies, insects, over 450 species of colorful & endangered birds, and an incredible variety of other fauna and flora.

After the comfortable Everest View trek, you can opt to visit Chitwan, which is a must for any wildlife lover and even for leisurely travelers who wish to relax in the tranquility of the sub-tropical jungle and observe wildlife or the local culture, tradition, and way of life in Terai. The Everest View Trek Itinerary will be 5-7 days, depending on your level of physical fitness and the time you have. Our original version itinerary has no extra day at Namche while trekking up, but you need it if you are a beginner. On that day, we will trek to Everest View Hotel and retrace our steps back to Namche after the beautiful day hike that will require one more day in the standard itinerary. 

Key Highlights of Trekking to Everest View Point:

  • Take a scenic and exciting mountain flight to Lukla
  • Viewing the world’s highest peak, Mount Everest
  • Namche Bazaar- the main gateway to Mt. Everest
  • Breathtaking view of other giant Himalayan Peaks: Lhotse, Nuptse, Amadablam, Thamserkhu, etc.
  • Soak in Sherpa culture and tradition, and meet the local people
  • Visiting local Buddhist monasteries and monuments. 
  • Walk around the alpine vegetation of the Khumbu region
  • High suspension bridges and over soaring glacial rivers.

The Everest View Trek is the ideal choice for trekkers seeking comfort, spectacular mountain scenery—including breathtaking views of Mount Everest itself—and an authentic glimpse into the unique Sherpa culture of the Himalayas. Offered by Wilderness Excursion at a fair price, this trek fits into a 6-day itinerary of less than a week. It is also well-suited for families with children and for a shorter hike to the Everest monastery. Senior adults can comfortably complete the trek within a week.

We recommend adding an extra contingency day to your plan, allowing time for recovery or a more relaxed pace if needed.  For a longer version of this trek and if you seek a bit more adventure, check our Everest Base Camp in 12 to 13 Days. If our standard itinerary doesn’t match your requirements, contact our expert trip planner to design a personalized trekking experience in Everest.

Lukla Flight Update: This alters when going to the Everest Treks

Because of high air traffic congestion in Kathmandu’s only airport that is for both international and domestic flights. CAAN (Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal) decided to continue the Lukla flight from Manthali in the Ramechhap district during the peak trekking season. This flight diverts has significantly altered the logistics for the Everest treks. To accommodate this change, we will have to adjust your departure schedule on the first day of your journey, our guide will pick you up from your accommodation around 1:00 to 2:00 AM and drive to Manthali (132 KM / 3 to 4 hours drive) to catch morning scenic flight to Lukla

A good option! Going to Manthali a day before your flight to Lukla for comfortable travel rather than rushing up. This just requires an extra day. Speak/write to your trip planner while booking.
