TOUR OVERVIEW
This 3 passes trek, in the Khumbu region of Nepal, is an ultimate mountain journey exclusively designed for adventure trekkers seeking the highest level of thrill and challenge. This trail offers a wonderful opportunity for trekkers to experience the demanding high passes of the Everest region, namely Renjo La (5,360m), Cho-la (5,420m) and Kongma La (5,535m) en route to the base camp of the world’s highest peak Mt. Everest (8,848m/29,021ft). Kongma La, discovered by Sherpas, is the highest and hardest pass, among all three passes while Renjo La is the smallest.

Along with the magnificent views of four of the world’s eight highest peaks; Cho Oyu (8,201m), Mt. Makalu (8,463m), Mt. Lhotse (8,516m) and Mt. Everest (8848m), you will also encounter Gokyo Ri, Kala Patthar and the Everest base camp - 3 other big highlights of this trip.

This trek isn’t just about the mountain sceneries but is also about the most popular Sherpa people (their picturesque villages, rich culture, a variety of traditions, colorful festivals, pure religion, and exceptional lifestyle) residing in the lap of the Himalayas. The trail also offers extinct species of plants, animals and birds.

Overall, this trek can be taken as a great fusion of fantastic scenery, challenging trek, off-the-beaten tracks and exclusive Sherpa cultures.

Please Note:
Due to obstructive weather conditions (even during the best trekking seasons), sometimes they may announce sudden changes regarding the previously provided domestic flight schedule to and from Lukla. The plane many be delayed for few hours or even few following days. This entirely depends upon the weather condition. In order to cope with this situation, AME Treks, kindly requests all the trekkers to add a few extra days to your plan. Nevertheless, if everything goes well, we can also make arrangements for you to enjoy other attractions like bungee jumping, jungle safari, rafting, shopping and so on.

Furthermore, trekker’s safety is always the top priority in any trek. Therefore, the team leader on duty is given every authority to make changes in the itinerary provided in case of unexpected weather change, the unsuitable health condition of a group member or an unforeseen natural disaster. If needed, team leader might also cancel any part of the itinerary. Hence, in such a situation we request you to co-operate with our team leader and remain flexible.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Find answers to the most frequently asked questions about this tour.
  • How much money do I need to bring with me?

    Your personal budget obviously depends on your spending habits and what is included in your trip cost. If accommodation is included, but meals are not, we would suggest that you bring around 30 USD per day per person for meals. Having a hot shower or charging your device sometimes costs extra. There are also sometimes small crafts/souvenirs to buy along the trekking route which you may want to bring extra money for. Also, consider whether you would be staying in Kathmandu or Pokhara before or after your trek.

  • Is quarantine in Nepal in effect for arriving visitors?

    There are no quarantine requirements in Nepal for arriving visitors at the moment.

  • How much should my backpack weigh?

    A properly packed backpack (not including your day pack) should ideally not weigh more than 13 kg. It is also important to note that if you are taking a flight to the start of your trek, many smaller aircraft have weight restrictions. For example, if you are flying from Kathmandu to Lukla, you are only allowed 10kg of checked luggage, and 5 kg of hand baggage. Thus, in case of a small flight, you should ideally pack a 10 kg backpack for checked luggage, and then add 5 kg in your hand baggage. You can then re-shuffel the weigt once you start your trek at the trailhead.  

  • Do I need a porter?

    The decision to hire a porter is up to you and usually based on your fitness level and/or budget. One porter can be shared between two people and can carry up to 25 kg. Many trekkers hire a porter to have a more comfortable trek.

  • Do I require a porter for carrying water?

    On most popular treks you can expect plenty of places where you can refill your water bottle, meaning you don’t need to carry a huge water supply with you. Bring an extra bottle of water if you are concerned. If you already have a porter, you can ask him/her to carry water as long as it is within the weight limit. Another option is to carry water purification tablets or LifeStraw, both of which can be found in Kathmandu.
