is trekking to the Everest Base camp in October
on October 11th and returns on 28th Oct Everest (m) - there is no greater mountain. The trek follows in the footsteps of the great climbing parties. Trekking through Sherpa country past cultivated fields and small villages, following the Dudh Kosi river before the hard work begins as we climb up to Namche Bazaar. Above the tree-line the scenery is stark but spectacular. The incredible monastery at Thyangboche is a photographer's paradise, set against the backdrop of Ama Dablam, Everest and other huge, snowcapped peaks. With time for acclimatisation en route, our goal is Everest Base Camp on the Khumbu Glacier and the opportunity to climb (m) for a breathtaking view of the highest mountain on earth.Mobile madness
We've sold off our old mobile phones and donated the money to JTSMA
