Trekking to Everest Base Camp in Nepal | Our Toughest Hike Yet!

Hiking to Everest Base Camp in Nepal - Trekking in the Himalayas The hike to Everest Base Camp in Nepal is one of the most spectacular and iconic high-altitude treks in the Himalayas, passing through remote Sherpa villages, rustic tea houses and epic mountain landscapes, culminating at the foot of the world’s tallest mountain, Mount Everest. Back in May, me and Amy were joined in Nepal by our friends Clare and Russ to take on this incredible multi-day trek. Led by our Sherpa guides, Gelu, Mingma and Pemba, we spent 12 days hiking 80 miles from the village of Lukla - home to 'the world's most dangerous airport' - up to Everest Base Camp at 5,364m above sea level, and back again. 00:00 - Intro 00:55 - Welcome to Nepal! 01:31 - A few days in Kathmandu 02:05 - Terrifying flight to Lukla 03:45 - Day 1 - Lukla to Phakding 06:36 - Day 2 - Phakding to Namche Bazaar 13:45 - Day 3 - Namche Bazaar Acclimatisation Day 16:24 - Day 4 - Namche Bazaar to Tengboche 21:27 - Day 5 - Tengboche to Dingboche 25:07 - Day 6 - Dingboche Acclimatisation Day 27:57 - Day 7 - Dingboche to Lobuche 30:37 - Day 8 - Lobuche to EBC 32:41 - We made to to Everest Base Camp! 34:24 - Back in Kathmandu 36:12 - Taking off from the 'world's most dangerous airport' Here is a link to the trip we booked with G-Adventures - and ask for Gelu! https://www.gadventures.com/trips/everest-base-camp-trek/ANEA/ Check out my Amazon storefront for links to all my hiking and camping gear 👇 https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/jamesb If you’re new around here - 👋 Hi, we’re James and Amy and back in October 2022 we quit our jobs to travel for a year.
