Trek to the highest region in the world, on the way encountering stunning views, ancient monasteries, and Sherpa villages, and staying each night in comfort.

Overview

EVEREST YETI TRAIL is designed to accommodate trekkers who prefer a comfortable stay while trekking in the hidden footprints of Yeti. According to the Himalayan myth, this part of the Everest region – mainly valley of Thame used to be the abode place of Yeti. Thame used to be the trade point between Nepal & Tibet and not to forget the birthplace of famous Everest Summiteers like Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Appa. Another main attraction of the Iconic Everest Trek package is Kongde lodge, the lodge located at the highest altitude of the world which offers a spectacular view of a series of Mountains.

One would be spellbound by the view that Kongde offers. Kongde Trek is based on our comfort Mountain Lodges – Mountain Lodges of Nepal, Everest situated around the trans-Himalaya Range at Khumbu. The five lodges are located in Lukla, Phakding, Namche, Thame & Kongde which lies in the main trekking trail to Everest region. Every individual site of the lodges is chosen taking precautions for environmental impact approved by the Government providing the best view. Each room is designed to offer the guests with modern comfort that makes trekking in Everest one of the most indulgent moments. At the end of each long tiring trek the trekkers can longingly look forward to the comfort that each of these unique lodges provides along the Everest Trekking trails.

Route

You start with early drive from Kathmandu to Ramechhap from where you will take a flight to Lukla, then a gentle, four-hour hike to Phakding to get you familiar with the local terrain. At Phakding, you join the Dudh Koshi River, originating in the Everest massif, to begin your uphill climb. The trail to Namche offers two incredible swing bridge crossings. After acclimatizing in Namche, instead of the north-east trail to Everest, you head north-west, to Thame, famous for its monastery, then on to Kongde Lodge, the magnificent pinnacle of your journey, finally descending back to Phakding and colorful Lukla.
