Classic Everest Trek

Everest-Classic-Trek

Classic Everest Trek according to the euphemisms of Skyline Treks, which consists myriad feelings for to exposure the natural allurement, moreover incredible scenery of the snowy capped mountains with its dome glacier is the classic trek in the direction of Everest region.

Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay trekked through this route for their Everest excursion. So, before the mountain airstrip in Lukla was build, this was the only trekking route to the Everest base camp, ideally making it a traditional route to the base camp.

We commence this superior trek from Jiri into Sagarmatha National Park to Everest, also called as the classic route to Everest. The first point of disembarkation ‘Jiri’ is a very small VDC in Dolakha District in the north-eastern part of Nepal.  As the closest road head, Jiri is the trail head for many treks into the Mount Everest region. Generally, people fly to Lukla directly and start the Everest trek which is 7-8 days shorter than trek to Lukla from Jiri.

In fact, Classic Everest Trekking is where the fun of the classic trek lies, since it has very less number of tourists trekking through the route. There are lots of eastern villagers so as to approach our way to Jiri, settled by ethnic people of Magar, Rai and Sherpa community. Ergo, the Classic Everest treks offers an invincible blend of natural beauty and cultural involvement.

The massive differences in altitudes, variety of flora and composition of lifestyles are the prime zenith of this classic trek to Everest.  We at Skyline Treks and expedition have been detaining years of experience organizing fun yet responsive treks in this classic region and In the direction of Everest Base Camp trekking.
