There is nothing quite like seeing Mt. Everest up close. The world’s highest peak commands a presence like no other mountain. The people who live in the mountains here aptly call Mt. Everest "the Mother Goddess of the World" because of its sublime majesty.
We are pleased to be able to offer you the Everest-at-a-glance trek, a moderate trek suitable for anyone in average physical condition. This trip is a total of twelve days, of which six are actual trekking. When it comes to panoramic views, the Everest at glance Trek offers views that are second to none. Not only does Mt. Everest dominate the Himalayan skyline, but many other mighty peaks are visible, including several others that rank in the top ten peaks in the world.
The Khumbu region (land of Mt. Everest) is home to amazing glacial-fed rivers that tumble over rocks and waterfalls on their way to the Bay of Bengal deep in the south. There are hidden Buddhist monasteries framed picturesquely with the snow-capped peaks as backdrops. Entire villages cling to the sides of the cliffs along with their terraced farms.
You will also encounter the history, the culture and the legends of Nepal, and meet people from the various ethnic groups that call this tiny Himalayan country home. Their faith, family values and tenacity for life will impress you as much or more than the exquisite scenery that makes this land famous with travellers around the world.
