We pick you up in the early morning and escort you to the domestic terminal of Kathmandu airport. Here, we catch a flight that will take us to the Lukla airport in the Khumbu region of Nepal. The region is probably one of the most loved and frequented trekking regions in Nepal. It takes the pride of having the world’s highest mountain in the world i.e. The Everest. The flight to Lukla is full of magnificent mountain views. As you land in Phakding, meet our remaining crew in Lukla for your journey ahead. From Lukla, we follow a trail that drops down to Dudhkoshi River and goes up gradually along a well-marked path to Phakding. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Phakding.
The days are going to get more interesting ahead. As we leave Phakding, we follow a trail that traverses through the Sagarmatha National Park. We march ahead through a forested area enriched with various species of floras and faunas. We pass interesting Sherpa villages like Monjo and Jorsale on the way to Namche. The trail from Phakding to Namche undulates up and down many times. It can be quite tiring but the pristine air, amazing views and the quest of reaching to the top of the world will keep you going. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Namche.
Today, you are at Namche means you are already at the heights of around 3440 meters. Therefore, we stop and take our time for acclimatization in Namche. Namche Bazaar is a vibrant town in the Khumbu region. It is an only gateway to Everest crowded with hotels, lodges, cyber cafes, shops and many more.

Today, we diverse from the classic trail to Everest Base Camp and head towards Dole. The trail is flat and fairly easy up to Mong. At Mong, there is a pass called Mong La. We cross the pass and walk along a beautiful trail full of dense rhododendron and oak forests. It is a wonderful experience to walk in the shadows of dense trees with some energizing views of mountains accompanying you throughout. We continue our walk until we reach Dole. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Dole.
We wake up and enjoy breakfast with some amazing views of the Himalayas on sight. We follow a trail towards the Gokyo valley. We climb uphill slowly and gradually relishing the incredible views of Himalayan vistas. As we are going up in a higher elevation region, drink plenty of water and walk slowly at a regular pace until we reach Macchermo. Upon arrival, explore the area that would also help you acclimatize yourself with the rising elevation. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Macchermo.
After breakfast, we continue with a trail to Gokyo valley. We walk slowly and gradually hydrating ourselves with plenty of water. After a few hours walk, we will find ourselves into the beautiful Gokyo village. In the village, we confront the Dudh Pokhari Lake which is one of the Gokyo lakes in the valley. We explore the village for a while and end up our day with a delicious dinner at the guesthouse. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Gokyo valley.
Get ready for a surprise as the day is going to offer you the best! Early in the morning, we ascend up to the Gokyo Ri. It is a popular vantage point in the Everest region of Nepal. From the top of the Ri, we will be rewarded with some astonishing views of towering mountains and the beautiful turquoise colored Gokyo lakes in the shadows of those beautiful Himalayas. After some memorable moments at the Ri, we return back to our guesthouse and collect our bags for a journey back to Macchermo. We retrace our steps back via the same route to Macchermo today. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Macchermo.
Leaving Macchermo, we continue towards the heart of the Khumbu region i.e. Namche Bazaar. It’s an easy walk down the vibrant town with some magnificent views of mountains and dense forests. We get back to Namche Bazaar via the same path that we had taken earlier. If we reach Namche early, we can explore the market area and interact with locals for the remaining time. Tonight, spend your time at a guesthouse in Namche.
After enjoying some impressive views of mountains in the Everest region of Nepal from Namche, we initiate our journey back to Lukla. We descend down via the same well-paved path along Jorsale, Monjo and Phakding to Lukla. The lush forests and amazing mountainous terrain will keep us engaged throughout the trek. Tonight, spend your night at a guesthouse in Lukla.
In the morning, we take an early flight to Kathmandu. Upon your arrival in Kathmandu, you will be dropped at your hotel in Kathmandu.

Reviews
Trip of a lifetime- Annapurna Circuit Trek
Heaven Himalaya Team offers a magnificently arranged trekking involvement in Nepal. Ramhari answered instantly to all my messages. They make a solid effort to make your vacation in Nepal an extraordinary one and genuinely went well beyond my desires.
I couldn't remember the name of the guide but my boy, you were more than amazing. I wish you good luck in the days to come.
Everything from pickup to trekking in the mountains was very professional with excellent service.
So, I strongly suggest everyone and will trek with Heaven Himalaya again in the future.
Glorious Experience in EBC Trek
We did an EBC trek with Ram and his team back in April 2019, and it was a glorious experience. Ram is a very knowledgeable, resourceful, and very helpful guide. 2 of us got unwell during the trek, and he was very prompt and took care of us in any way that was available.
We enjoyed our chat and his sense of humor along the trail and at the teahouses. He even got us a special breakfast and pickle salad at Namche Bazaar and always fulfilled the strange request with our dietary needs. EBC trek is amazing. With Ram, it is even more spectacular. Thanks for the amazing trip. Looking forward to island peak climb in the future.
Incredible Scenery and Service
I trekked up to Basecamp with Ram and his Heaven Himalaya team last year and had incredible Scenery and Service. The scenery is just awesome, and Ram took amazing care of everyone in our group. He kept us all entertained and motivated and most importantly, healthy. Can't recommend him highly enough!
Best Experience Ever, Thank You Ram
My wife and I spent our honeymoon in the mountains. We made the Three Passes Trek in the Everest region. I can certainly say that it was the ultimate outdoor experience we have ever had, simply astonishing. I'm also very sure that a great part of enjoying that experience the way we did was thanks to our guide (Ram). He's a highly expert in the mountains and more importantly a great person with a big heart and always a smile to offer.
Everest Base Camp Trek
I did the Everest Base Camp Trek back in Nov’18 and it was an awesome experience. My guide, Ram was fantastic, very knowledgeable, and professional. He was very good in all the preparations that he made and was very attentive to my needs. He was very thorough explaining all parts of the trek and he took good care of me, especially I was exhausted on the last day of the trek, he pushed and helped me out to ensure I made it to EBC. I highly recommend going with Ram if you ever wanted to do any treks in Nepal.
