A trip to the base camp

Namche Bazar

The Everest region is the main destination for foreign tourists to choose from. Those who climb the highest summit, many will quench the thirst of the mountains by hiking up to the base camp. A trip to the base camp has also begun for domestic tourists.

There are two main trails that go from the Namche Bazaar (3440 m) to the base camp (5362 m), considered to be the gateway to Everest. One way, from Namche to Gokyo Lake, passing through Chola. Next, Tengboche, Dingboche, Pangboche, Thukla, Gorkshape.

Even though there is a bumpy ride somewhere on the hike, the lasers of white snow keep adding energy before the eyes. The best place to look for Everest is the Black Stone. Himalayas, including the Everest, can be seen at 360 degrees from the black stone at an altitude of 5555 meters.
