On Ultimate Everest Trek, you will traverse Renjo and Chola passes from where you will experience some of the best views of the mountains and valleys, trek to GokyoRi viewpoint (one of the finest viewpoint in the Everest Region).

In Lobuche, you’ll reconnect with the trail to Everest Base Camp, then trek to Kala Pathar viewpoint (from where you will have a mirror view of Everest, its base camp and numerous majestic peaks such a Pumori standing next to you, Lingtren, Khumbutse, Changtse in Tibet, Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Pokalde, AmaDablam, Kangtega, KusumKanguru, Thamserku, Tawoche, Cholatse, Lobuche east-west peaks, and the massif Khumbu icefall and glacier); this is the highest point (18,204ft) of your trek and do not be afraid that it is not a technical climb, but a walk uphill. When you are on Kala Pathar viewpoint, you have seen it all and at this point it becomes an optional choice whether you want to go to Everest base camp or not.

Day 5-16, you will trek in the less traveled trails. No other trek in the Everest Region offers you the ultimate mountain views that this trek could offer hence the name Ultimate Everest Adventure Trek.

You: To participate on this trek, you must be in reasonable shape to very fit to endure 6-9 hours of trek and be able to handle high altitude trekking.
