Everest Trekking | Mount Everest Trek : Himalayan Smile Trek & Adventure
7-Day Everest Trek is
a short but scenic itinerary deep into the Khumbu region, targeted at travelers

views of Everest without trekking all the way to Everest Base Camp. The
itinerary starts and ends in Kathmandu and focuses on the areas of Namche
Bazaar, Tengboche, and several iconic viewpoints.
Day 1: Kathmandu to Lukla, Trek to Phakding
Early morning flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, or directly
from Ramechhap during peak season. After a short rest, commence trekking
towards Phakding. The trail descends through forests, small Sherpa villages,
and the Dudh Koshi River. Finally, stay overnight in Phakding.
