Tour Itinerary
Jiri To Everest Base Camp Trekking
Jiri To Everest Base Camp Trekking follows the same trail which was chosen by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in the year 1953 for climbing Mount Everest. Although this trek was the only possible route in those days, you are now provided with the second alternative which lets you begin your trekking from Lukla after you land in the airstrip at Lukla. If you have enough time and if you enjoy your walk in less crowded area, we recommend you to join this trek which is also known as classical Everest Base Camp Trek. Walking from Jiri although drains out of energy, the peaceful route that stretches through lush valleys, less settlements, high passes, verdant woods and rivers will make this route worthy joining. The route also blesses you with opportunity to view High Himalayan Wildlife and follows through unspoiled vicinities.
Jiri to Everest Base Camp Trek at ‘The Nepal Trekking Company’ is 21-days itinerary that begins with about eight hours’ drive to Jiri which is a small picturesque town that exists in Dolakha district. Jiri to Everest Base Camp Trek follows the conventional route which was used in the earlier days by people who came for the Everest Expedition.
