Majorly known as the goddess of sky,
Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world. Not only Mount Everest but
the Everest region has been one of the major destinations for any trekking
enthusiasts.
Mount Everest is one of the major
reasons that people from around the world are aware of Nepal. Although there
are various other landmarks Mount Everest stands tall all the time.
Trekking to the Everest region isn't
easy for everyone. But agencies like Roving Nepal treks make the journey
easier. From the toughness of the trek and other amenities to maintain Roving
Nepal Treks tend to take care of everything.
However, before jumping on the
flight to Lukla, it is important to have an overview of the Everest region in
general. From the best times to travel and highlights to things that should be
considered, this blog will be important for readers.
Highlights of Everest region
The expectations from the Everest
region might be different for different trekkers. What Roving
Nepal Treks can assure is the fact that we will
provide you service that will stay with you for a lifetime.
Everest region is not only about the
tallest mountain in the world. The culture, lifestyle, and the Sherpa, and
Gurung people of the Everest region provide a different perspective to the
trekkers.
Along with Mount Everest climbers
will also have an opportunity to embrace mountains like Lhotse, Makalu, etc.
Along with that Kalapatthar is the major point that provides a brilliant view
of Mount Everest.
Through deep exploration, you will
come through Khumjung village. This particular place also has the Sherpa museum
which talks about the rich history of the place and also Sherpas in the history
of trekking in Nepal.
If you are part of Roving Nepal
Treks we will arrange cultural welcome and dance programs which will help you
to indulge well into the Sherpa culture and also feel welcomed. Sherpa
habitation is different compared to other cultures.
The stone houses and following the
Buddhist culture will make you think about the value of culture at the highest
point of the world. Every corner of the Everest region is invaluable but
visiting every place is impossible.
Therefore Roving Nepal Treks prepares
itineraries in such a way that fellow climbers will not miss the most important
parts of the Everest region. We try and customize the package based on
situations as well.
No, this is not your casual Mardi
Himal trek but it is much more than that. Having said that Everest region
trekking demands a lot of dedication and training from the fellow trekkers. You
will have to be mentally strong and physically agile.
Tourists who are interested in being
part of this journey are motivated to be physically fit. If you are unsure
where to start come in contact with Roving Nepal treks and we will guide you
through with ease.
From proper discipline to early
preparation and a better mindset you will be capable of completing the trek.
Technically speaking walk 6-8 hours every day to get into the mindset. Also,
join some exercise programs to get your body agile.
Cycling, swimming, running, and
aerobic workouts could be a better option. Not compulsory but if you can add yoga to your pre-training program, you will prepare your mental state to
complete the overall trek.
It is understandable that when you
have plans for the tallest mountain in the world, there are plenty of mountains
that cover the overall trek.
Roving Nepal Treks confirms to all
the readers that the essence of the Everest region is highlighted by the
mountains that are present en route to Mount Everest.
Eight major mountains are available
during the trek. Mount Everest itself sits at the top. Mount Lhotse at an
altitude of 8516m is also present in the trek. Mount Makalu at 8485m is also
available. It is considered one of the tallest mountains to trek.
Moving along at 8188m we also have
Mount Cho Oyu and Mount Nuptse at 7855m. The list doesn't end here with Mount
Pumori and Mount Ama Dablam also standing at 7165m and 6812m
respectively.
The last recognisable mountain
during the trek of Everest region is Mount Thamserku which is at an altitude of
6623m. Not only this there are plenty of other mountains which carry lesser
value as well.
Things to consider before trekking
to the Everest region
Talking about things to consider
before the Everest region trek is at the maximum level. However, you need not
worry if your trekking agency is Roving Nepal Treks. We try and provide almost
every facility to our guests with ease.
But if you are trekking solo or in
other ways let's dive into things that should be considered. First of all, you
will need to acquire a TIMS card and a permit to enter Sagarmatha National
Park. A total of 50$ will be spent during the time.
During the Everest region trek,
there is no proper information on how long it could take. So always try and
pack in limited amounts and carry extra cash. Extra cash allows you to live
longer and independently.
Along with this try and carry some
first-hand painkillers as you could have headaches issues with altitude
sickness. As negative as it may sound try and welcome headaches while ascending
as it is due to altitude sickness.
Not only the Everest region but
Roving Nepal Treks also moves around environmentally friendly practices so keep
up with the mindset of reuse and recycle. Don't expect massive five-star hotels
during the treks as well.
Be habituated with the tea house
lodges and try and understand and accept the Everest region in the most raw
form possible.
At Roving Nepal Treks we assure our
guests that you will have an experience to share for a lifetime. So what is
stopping you from picking up the phone and making the right decision?
