Everest Base Camp Trek in a comfortable way
The 16-day Comfort Everest Base Camp Trek is all about the Himalayan retreat—with a warm bed waiting at the end of each day. It isn’t just a walk to the foot of the world’s tallest mountain; it is a rich cultural journey wrapped in comfort and care.
Your journey begins at Kathmandu, where you stay in a 4-star deluxe hotel and visit old temples, bustling bazaars, and centuries-old heritage sites. You then take a flight to scenic Lukla and meet the trekking crew, our guides, porters, and other fellow trekkers.
From there, the real magic unfolds. You will hike on trails cut into green river valleys, across prayer flags-covered bridges that flutter in the wind, and up into alpine heaven. En route, you will wind through bustling Sherpa villages, stop at jaw-dropping viewpoints of 8000 m peaks, and encounter locals whose mountain lifestyle is as inspiring as the scenery.
The Comfort Everest Base Camp trekking winds through the stunning Sagarmatha National Park, and, indeed, every bend in the trail holds an aspect of discovery-from grazing yaks to sacred monasteries perched high above the clouds.
And what is the best part of the comfort EBC trek? You will rest in cozy, well-equipped lodges that offer a welcome dose of comfort after the day’s hike each night. It is the perfect balance of adventure and ease.
In all, when you finally reach Everest Base Camp, you will not only walk in the footsteps of the greats but also gather tales, companions, and experiences with comfort in our Everest Base Camp comfortable trek, which you will cherish for your lifetime.

For the other two nights, you will stay at basic lodges that are available—clean, comfy, and filled with local charm. What is important is that you get a good night's sleep even when you are trekking to the highest place on earth.
Relax and explore Kathmandu: Two bonus days before and after your trek
Kathmandu won't just be your starting point, but it could be an adventure in itself! You will have two full days to experience Kathmandu before and after your trek. Within two days you will visit ancient temples, vibrant streets, and local markets.
We will take you to some iconic sites such as Pashupatinath, Boudhnath, the Monkey Temple (Swayambhunath), and Kathmandu Durbar Square.
If you have time on your second last day in the Comfort of the EBC Trek, don't miss the beautifully preserved Bhaktapur and Patan Durbar Squares. You can certainly find local art, cozy cafes, or even a well-deserved massage!
Flying into excitement: Lukla and the majesty of Sagarmatha
Buckle up for one of the world's most fantastic flights! The Kathmandu-Lukla flight is a breathtaking, sky-high ride, with Himalayan views to die for before landing on a heart-stopping little airstrip runway clinging to the mountainside. It is a quick 35-minute hop with memories that will last a lifetime.
A journey through Sagarmatha National Park
Sagarmatha National Park is Nepal's highest National Park and a treasure trove of flora and fauna, starting from Monjo and reaching all the way to Everest.
During the 16 days comfort Everest Base Camp trek, you will go through tropical forests around Monjo and climb through rhododendrons, pines, and junipers forests until the trees disappear and the terrain transforms into snowy ridges and glacier fields beneath Everest’s watchful eye.
Hanging suspension bridges, picturesque villages, and lovely river valleys
The Deluxe Everest Base Camp trek begins with a burst of adventure right from the onset. Within the initial two days, you will be trudging over several iconic hanging suspension bridges above the rushing Dudh Koshi River that give you the thrills of trekking in the highest region of Nepal!
The track continues through traditional mountain villages and peaceful river valleys, where every step is a photographic moment. The sheer kind of start gets your adrenaline pumping in the best way possible.
Tea, Tales, and Trails: Experiencing Sherpa culture firsthand
On the Deluxe Everest Base Camp trek of 16 days with Outfitter Himalaya, your nights are spent in Cozy Mountain villages nestled in the heart of Khumbu. Each stop gives you a deeper glimpse into the everyday life of the locals, especially the legendary Sherpas.
You will be surprised by how warmly you are welcomed; a genuine kindness here makes you feel right at home, even miles above sea level.
Ample acclimatization days with exciting side hikes
Two acclimatization days make the comfortable Everest Base Camp trek safer and a lot more enjoyable. In Namche Bazaar and Dingboche, you will balance easy day hikes like the Everest View Hotel and Nagarshtang Hill and plenty of time to rest or explore.
These breather points in the trek enable you to breathe, mingle with locals, and get a good feel for Himalayan life.
Spiritual touch points in the mountains
What makes the Everest Base Camp trek in comfort unique, aside from the mountains, is the deeply spiritual presence on the trail. You will pass by ancient monasteries that offer contemplative glimpses into Himalayan culture and Sherpa ways.
Each step appears to hold a symbol of faith: multicolored prayer flags fly over bridges, stupas, and chortens along the way, and you can't help but feel as if you are strolling through a living, breathing, sacred landscape.
Walk on glaciers and moraines to reach Everest Base Camp
The final stretch of the Comfort Everest Base Camp trek leads you above the tree line on a path cut through glacier and moraine.
From Dughla, the path goes through the Khumbu Glacier and up rocky ridges until, at last, you are at Everest Base Camp. It is marked out and colorful from expedition camps. All around you: ice, stone, snow, and the feeling of traversing a moving glacier at the foot of the world's tallest peak.
Kala Patthar view point hike
Your final ascent on the Comfortable Everest Base Camp trek leads to Kala Patthar, the highest point of the adventure and arguably the most breathtaking. This viewpoint is famous for its sunrise show, and trekkers rise early to catch it.
When that soft morning light hits Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse, you will understand why this spot is a must. It is raw, real, and unforgettable.
Never-ending mountain companionship and diverse landscapes
On the Everest Base Camp trek in Comfortable Style, the Himalayas aren't just a backdrop- they're your constant companions. Majestic mountains such as Ama Dablam, Lhotse, and Everest are so near that you will actually feel like reaching out and touching those peaks.
The scenery shifts rapidly as green forests give way to jagged, barren highlands in a few days. And with these giants like Makalu, Nuptse, Pumori, and Thamserku towering all around you, this is a visual feast you will never forget.
