Sleep Under the Stars at Everest Base Camp—A Memorable Adventure
The Everest Base Camp Trek with Overnight at Base Camp is an experience of a lifetime for trekkers who aspire to sleep under the stars at the base of the world's tallest mountain. One big difference between the traditional EBC Trek and this one is that the classic trek goes back to Gorak Shep after only a few hours at Base Camp.
This route, on the other hand, lets trekkers fully experience the area by sleeping at Everest Base Camp proper. Even if it's only for a short time, this overnight stay is like mountaineering. The Khumbu Glacier and the stunning ice mountains will be all around you, and you'll hear avalanches coming from the adjacent summits.
This 15-day program, which includes the days from when you arrive in Kathmandu to when you leave, is the perfect mix of cultural experiences, high-altitude trekking, and Himalayan adventure. When you get to Nepal's capital, you'll take the famous Kathmandu to Lukla flight and land at the exciting Lukla Airport, where the runway is in full view of the mountains.
The trip took us through Sagarmatha National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is home to unique animals, pine woods, and the famous Sherpa villages of Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, and Dingboche. You can stay in Namche and Dingboche for days to get used to the higher altitude, and they have several ways to explore nearby ridges and vistas.
The distance of a trek can be anywhere from 8 to 15 kilometers, depending on the weather and the height. Some of the most interesting things to see are the sunrise at Kala Patthar, which is 5,545 meters high and gives you a different view of Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse; a visit to the holy Tengboche monastery; and light camping at Everest Base Camp, which is 5,364 meters high. This is a very rare chance to see Everest base operations of wok climbers during the spring walkaways when day trekkers arrive home. It's a very peaceful experience.
From an adrenaline-pumping flight to Lukla to scenic trekking in the Sagarmatha National Park to an unforgettable camping experience at Base Camp, this trek is for the person wishing to go beyond the standard. The best views, cultural encounters, and high-altitude memories can be found on this Everest trek, whether it is a last-minute adventure or a lifelong dream.
Make a firm booking for an overnight trek to Everest Base Camp, and let your journey to the base of the tallest peak become a source of fame and memories. There are limited seats available for departures in the spring and autumn.

Flight Information for Trekking to Mt. Everest with Overnight Camping at Base Camp
The Everest Base Camp Trek with Overnight Stay includes getting to and from Lukla (2,800m). Knowing your travel alternatives will help you get ready for a smoother trip.
1. Regular flights from Kathmandu to Lukla (off-season)
During the off-season months, which are usually December to February and June to August, you can fly directly from Kathmandu to Lukla. The flight lasts about 25 to 30 minutes and gives you amazing views of the Himalayas. These direct flights are easier because you don't have to drive anywhere else. But the weather and traffic at the airport can cause delays.
2. Ramechhap (Manthali) to Lukla Flight (Peak Season)
During the busiest trekking times (spring: March–May, autumn: September–November), flights from Kathmandu to Lukla are rerouted to Manthali Airport (Ramechhap) because there is too much air traffic at Kathmandu Airport.
- You have to drive around 132 kilometers (about 4–5 hours) from Kathmandu to Manthali. Most of the time, you leave around 2:00 AM to catch early morning flights.
- It takes roughly 15 to 20 minutes to fly from Manthali to Lukla.
This does mean more time on the road, but it makes it more likely that your flight will be on time because Manthali has fewer flight delays than Kathmandu.
3. Helicopter rides to Lukla or back
Helicopter rides are a faster and more scenic way to get between Kathmandu and Lukla, or even back to Kathmandu from base camp/Lobuche. If you're short on time, don't want to take the bus, or want to miss the long descents following the trek, helicopter rides are the best option.
- You can choose whether to share them or keep them to yourself, based on your budget and preferences.
- Heli flights cost extra, but they give you sights and convenience that no other type of flying can equal, especially if your flight is canceled or you have an emergency.
Important Notes
- All flights depend on the weather, and delays or cancellations are common because Lukla is in the mountains.
- It is highly recommended that you leave 1–2 extra days in your schedule following the journey before you leave the country.
- Your trekking company will take care of all your flight plans and let you know if the schedule changes or the weather affects your trip.
