Everest Trekking Details Information for 2020/21

                      Everest Trekking Information for 2020

A beautiful view from nearly the hotel Everest view.
Mount Everest is the highest peak in the world, which is located in northeastern Nepal. The largest town of the region is Namche bazaar which is known as the home of the famous Buddhist monastery of Thyangboche where the annual Mani Rimdu festival is held. Our Journey starts from Lukla and usual first-night stop on the way to the market town of Namche bazaar in Phakding, virtually all in the Khumbu begin with the flight from Kathmandu to the small town of Lukla.  Most Everest region leads to the Everest Base Camp, however, there are side trails to explore and more remote paths to discover as well as challenging trekking peaks to climb. We didn’t feel giddy with excitement that morning when you see the sunrise from the window where you stay in the lodge (or hotel).


At the Namche bazaar 11,200 feet, you’ll have your first compulsory acclimatization day and you’ll be glad for the opportunity to explore this spectacular village and surroundings. Expect this way the day where, despite extreme exhaustion, weakness from loss of appetite and braving bitterly cold conditions.    Whatever trail you follow-through, you will soon be immersed in the austere beauty of this awe-inspiring trekking region.  There is plenty of sightseeing to be had, including the Khumjung gompa monastery and the Sir Edmund Hillary-founded Khunde hospital.


Continuing up the Khumbu valley, the climb is steady to Lobuche and Gorakshep, our highest overnight points. Just because you are not stepping foot on Mount Everest, do not think that the trek to Everest Base Camp (EBC) is easy to undertaking. The landscape is now harsh and inhospitable and accommodation basic- concrete buildings, no running water and you may find ice in the window in the morning. The season March and April in the spring and October and November in the autumn are the prime months for trekking in the Everest region. When you wake up early in the next morning for a pre-dawn start for the ‘’small’’ 18,000-foot peak called Kala Pattar, for the spectacularly famous view of Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse. 

             
Flora Fauna Everest Region:
There are not so many animals that can be found near the top of Mount Everest because it is just too high. This is the highest national park in the world with the entire park located above 3,000m (9,700ft), in this park includes three highest peaks more than 8,000mincluding Mt Everest.  Nepal is a paradise of flora and fauna, ranging from the subtropical forest of the Terai to the great peak of the Himalayan in the north. The conditions are very cold and there isn’t as much oxygen so animals have to adapt to survive. Most of the park is in very rugged and step with its terrain cut by deep river and glacier. Nepal abounds with some of the most spectacular scenery in the whole of Asia with a variety of flora and fauna also unparalleled elsewhere in the region. The bottom of Mount Everest has forests of pine and hemlock trees.

The lower forested zone, birch, juniper, blue pine, firs, bamboo, and rhododendron grow, above this zone, all vegetation is found to be dwarf or shrubs. Higher up the mountain, the trees stop growing because it is too cold and windy but shrubs still grow under the snow. The rolling densely wooded hills and broad Dun valleys of the Terai beside different components of the country were formerly renowned for their abundance and variety of wildlife. As the altitude increase, the plant life and animal life is restricted to lichens and mosses.


Some of the endangered animals that are found in this park are musk deer, Himalayan yak, red panda, snow leopard, and Himalayan black beer. Nepal can still boast richer and more varied flora and fauna than any other area in Asia. Animals such as the snow leopard mountain sheep, yak can live in these areas. The snow leopard was nearly hunted to extinction because of its beautiful coat, mountain tahr is goat-like animals that live on the wooded slopes of Everest and mountain is closely related with wild cattle found on another highland. Beside many animals such as Himalayan thars, deer, langur monkey, hares, mountain foxes, martens, and Himalayan wolves are found here.

Nepal is a very popular country for trekking in the Himalayans, that why many of the people come to Nepal from all over the world who love trekking.  Trekking lodge is a bit pretentious to call some village establishment hotels, but the common word in Nepali for restaurants or eating places is known as the hotel. In the Nepali word for a small hotel is known as bhatti. Many innkeepers specify the service they provide by calling by their establishments Hotel and Lodge.  During the trekking season, there is a daily rush for space in a hotel, in that time of heavy demand, such as during a flight back-up to Lukla, Many hotels have menus that show their prices, including the charges of sleeping.
Tea house accommodation is available during the Everest base camp Trek, Gokyo Lake Trek, Gokyo Cho la Pass Trek, Phaplu Via Everest Base Trek and Everest Three Pass Trek period with basic facilities. In the Everest region, in particular, this can be dangerous because of the elevation gain and the chance of altitude sickness. In the Everest Region Trek average cost for a night is US$ 3 to 15, price depend on the height of place and standard service like attach bathroom or common, dormitory, another factor. A reputed tea house provides thick matter with a clean bed cover and a very warm blanket also. You might think that, since Nepal is underdeveloped so the hotel and lodge facility will poor, but the completely wrong now there is a number of luxury hotel and lodge for the trekkers.  The average cost starts from US$ 150 per person per night on BB basic.

For human beings, food is one of the necessary things. As we prepare for our recent trek to Mt Everest Base Camp, immensely curious as to what kind of food we would be eating for 12 days. While the food was obviously no five- star dining experience, it was much more satisfying and tasty then we could have ever expected. At the trekking lodges, tea is served in thermoses of various sizes Paste your text here and click on "Next" to observe this text redact do its issue.

You’ll fire a further tea bag or better of all bring your own tea with you; otherwise, the standard of tea can typically cause you to nervous. When eating breakfast on the Everest Base Camp trek, we usually prefer a generous portion of oatmeal, fried eggs, and Tibetan bread.
Whilst trekking, ask your guide or bearer to recommend a tea house or lodge where you can have lunch and which will serve good hiking food. During your day‘s you will usually encounter several settlements along the trekking route where you can have lunch. Most of the tea house offers a set breakfast which usually consists of toast, eggs, potatoes, and tea and coffee. In some tea houses, you can get freshly made chapati inside of toast, which is a nice change of pace. Dinner is usually eaten in the lodge where you stay overnight. At the lodge, each room has its own order notebook in which write the order - name of the meal, quantity, and price after studying the menu. If the trekker arrives with own meal, the accommodation charge increases dramatically and can reach 1000-1200 Rs per night.
