Best Time To  EBC Trek

Arguably, the best time to travel the majestic Everest base camp Trek is the autumn season of September to November. The trek of Everest base camp from late September to November has many perks.

Some of the major highlights of the trek include the spectacular view of the mountains, moderate trekking temperatures, and unobstructed views of the mountains. There might be some instances of unfavorable conditions which is quite common. The weather around the Everest Base Camp is quite unpredictable in comparison.

The amount of precipitation is quite less in lower elevations and snowfall is less as you move higher along the trail. You should always check for weather conditions before you start the trek and prepare accordingly.

Besides this, the small window from March to May is also a great time to trek the Everest region. The trails look beautiful, and the rhododendron flowers bloom well over the hills painting the hills red and pink. The Everest region has an excellent climate and weather, and the moderate temperatures make for a great trekking experience.

Lukla Flight and Weather

Lukla rests perfectly on a hilltop surrounded by mountains on all three sides. There are no direct roadways to reach Lukla from Kathmandu, only flight options. Plus, its airport is known as the world’s most thrilling one due to the short runway.And There are mainly  3 airlines are having regular flights to Lukla from Kathmandu.

Currently, flights are the only direct transportation available from Kathmandu to Lukla. So, the weather has a significant impact on its flight schedule. During dramatic climatic conditions, the chances of flight delay and cancellation are high.

Afraid of flight cancellation? Worry not, you can take helicopters  from Kathmandu to Lukla / or return  Kathmandu. The helicopter cost would be $350-$500 per person for one way flight.

Note: If the weather is worst and no visibility, helicopters also might not make flights.

So, the flights are only scheduled in the mornings because the weather is evident in the mountains at that time. A tailwind slowly builds up by afternoon, making it impossible to fly and navigate the landing.

Also, the visibility and seasonality add up to it. During monsoon, the rain clouds come into play with thunderstorms and wind, while in winter, the fog impacts the flight creating high chances of flight cancellations and delays.

Traveling during bad weather conditions is the worst scenario possible, so always read the weather forecast or travel during peak seasons.

Weight restrictions: Flying  to Lukla, the weight limit is 15 kg per person,  You can carry maximum 10Kg of luggage and maximum 5kg of hand-carry. If you want take More than weight limit, it  will cost you  US$ 1  for  extra Kilograms .

EBC Trek Altitude Sickness

Typically, Hike to Everest takes you above 5000m elevation. So, altitude-related sickness is the most common problem you face during this journey.

Most travelers think AMS occurs when you travel above 3500 m, and this trip begins from 2800 m altitude. So, the chances of altitude sickness are high during Everest Base Camp Tour.

Headache, vomiting, nausea, dizziness, shortness of breath are some of the usual signs of altitude-related sickness. If you start to detect any of the symptoms, inform your guide and follow their instructions.

When suffering from AMS, do not continue the trek; instead, stay in the same destination or head to lower areas.

More Information

EBC Trek Total  Distance

Everest Base Camp Trek, one of the iconic treks in the world, is about 130 km long in total. That means while you trek toward Everest Base Camp, you will cover 65 km. And 65 km more while returning from Everest Base Camp. You must cover a 130 km distance to complete it, starting and ending at Lukla.

The Everest Base Camp Trek distance is easy, moderate, or difficult. It depends on your experience level and preparation. If you have been on similar treks in the Himalayas, the trek’s distance is okay.

However, it can be a bit demanding and massive for beginners. You have to cover a distance of 15 km per day on average. The trail is rough, rocky, steep, slippery, and sometimes descends. The conditions might slow you down. Otherwise, 15 km a day is relatively easy. You’ll have around 6-10 hours daily to cover that distance. Come well-prepared to cover an average of 15 km per day. And you will have a walk of life.

 

EBC Trek Travel Insurance

Travel Insurance is mandatory if you want to begin your Everest Base Camp Trek. It is because no one can predict what mishaps can happen in the mountains, so having insurance covers these issues.

While choosing a company, make sure their plan covers all medical and travel problems like altitude sickness, emergency rescue, sprained ankle, and more. The insurance plan should be able to give you facilities like helicopter rescue, clinical attention, air ambulance, and so on.

Most importantly, many insurance companies do not cover treks above 4000 m, so make sure your cover trips above 5000 m altitude. With travel insurance, you can complete your expedition with no worries.

 

Guide for Everest Base Camp Trek

Trekking solo is possible for Everest Base Camp Trek, but we recommend not to because the routes are mentally and physically challenging. So, if you dislike traveling in groups, you can hire experienced guides for extra comfort and a stress-free trek.

Having a guide will not only help you with navigation, but they will also take care of your security and safety. They will be your closest companion who helps you connect with local culture and communicate with the people.

Trekking Porter – Carry Your Luggage

Having a porter lessens your baggage weight, as they carry all your heavy belongings allowing you to enjoy the trek without feeling fatigued. They are also the locals of these areas, so they know many shortcuts. Porters are less expensive in comparison with licensed guides and a great companion with basic English speaking skills.

Tip for Guide, Porter

Tipping is a lovely gesture to service providers around the world. And it is no new in Nepal’s trekking trails. After loving the service of their guides and porters, trekkers want to offer some tips to them. Tipping is not compulsory, but it can surely make your porter and guide’s day. It is all your choice.

As it is optional, there is no exact number for tipping. You can give as much as you like. Still, if we have to help with how much to offer, we would suggest you a suggestion. If your trek is ten days long, you can give them around USD 10 to 15 per day as a tip. So you can use this rate to tip your guide or porter. That is a standard tip amount. If you can give more or less, that is no problem.

There is no need to tip your team every day. You can just complete the trip and pay them at last. Make sure the given amount goes into the hands of the right people. You can use an envelope to give a gratuity.

Hot Shower

Almost 95% of tea houses and lodges have a hot shower facility during the EBC trek. In lower areas like Namche, Phakding, you can quickly get a hot bucket or tap shower at a low price. However, the hot showers are expensive as you ascend above to Dingboche, Gorak Shep, Tengboche, etc. Getting running water is a challenge in the upper region, so bucket water is better.

How much Money Carry for EBC Trek?

Even though our package covers most of your costs like meals during the trek, accommodation, Guide, Porter, Lukla flight etc., it doesn’t cover your personal bills. So, you need to carry extra cash to pay for your beverages, restaurants, snacks, souvenirs, hot showers, and more.

Each day you might spend about $15 to $20, depending on your spending habits. So, carry the equivalent money for payment as the shops in the mountains do not accept visa cards or e-payment.

Toiletry and Room

Basically, Everest Base Camp Trek is a tea house trip, so all the accommodations provide simple facilities. The rooms are primarily twin-sharing, so you have to share them with other travelers. Each room consists of beds, pillows, and blankets, but they are warm and cozy.
As for the toilets, you find attached bathrooms in lower regions, but you only find shared bathrooms as you keep ascending.
