camp of the world and surrounding high mountains. Relatively easy trek for an hour’s then short uphill will
bring on a craggy paved trail, it leads all the

descending and ascending to Kalapatthar
viewpoint. We have lunch first at
Gorakshep then a subsequent level trail of
Everest base camp and traverse on craggy,
rocky, paved, on literally Khumbu glacier
which makes harder to trek on. We often
hike on black ice before reach to Everest
base camp, Basecamp presents renowned
Khumbu glacier with blue ice rolling on
slopes of Khumbu ice falls. You will
celebrate your success at base camp by
taking photos, In spring you can sights climber in a tented camp, waiting for favorable weather to go summits
