Of course, everyone who loves adventure has a dream to put their footsteps at the Everest Base Camp (5364m), the highest mountain base camp in the world. But everyone cannot peruse this beautiful dream. Everest Base Camp Trek is graded as moderate to challenging since the altitude ranges from 1300m to 5643m. The highest point of Everest Base Camp Trek is Kalapatthar which is 5643m high.

We really don’t want to make our trekking trip challenging. Rather, we try our best to turn it from challenging to moderate to easy or strenuous to comfortable. For this, we need to apply some secret techniques to make our Everest Base Camp Trek memorable. Below, we are discussing 7 secret techniques to improve Everest Base Camp Trek from strenuous to moderate to easy.

Have Enough Time Flight delay

Flight Delay In Lukla

Those who want to trek to Everest Base Camp are frequently troubled by the Lukla flight delay. It occurs due to bad weather conditions. The weather in Lukla changes every few minutes. This abrupt change in weather conditions disturbs the flight to Lukla from Kathmandu. The flight is either delayed, postponed, or canceled sometimes even it goes on disturbing for some days. At the time, we need to see for an alternative way to get Namche or Lukla. This alternative is the jeep drive from Kathmandu to Shivalaya and Faplu.

Actually, trekkers are stranded at the airport for several hours and days which will really be troublesome and unbearable. And trekkers are bound by their limited time schedule. To escape this nasty experience caused by flight delay, postponement, or cancellation, we need to manage a few spare days before you book your Everest Base Camp Trek so that you will still feel relaxed and comfortable even though there is a flight delay or postponement due to bad weather condition. We suggest you bring 2 days of spare time for your Everest Base Camp Trek.

Find the  best season

We need to do make extensive research and find the right time to do the right thing. The same happens regarding our Everest Base Camp Trek. Nepal’s climate can be divided into four seasons: Winter, Summer, Autumn, and Spring. Winter receives massive snowfall in the Himalayas.

So, trekking in the Himalayas during winter is harsh. Summer is hot and receives heavy rainfall which disrupts the trail to trek in the countryside and the mountains. Even it is hard to drive from one to another place during the summer. Spring is the somehow hot but second-best season to trek in Nepal after autumn. For climbing and mountaineering, spring is the best. Autumn is the finest season to travel in Nepal. It is between Sept- Nov. Above 90 percent of tourists who love to travel in Nepal choose autumn. The temperature is mild which is perfect to make a trip on the mountain. The mountain views are astonishing. The visibility is marvelous. So, we recommend making your Everest Base Camp Trek in Autumn.

Accompany with Professional Guide and Porter

Free Relief

Go with Such Itinerary with at least 2 days Acclimatization

While going to a higher elevation, it is mandatory to acclimatize our bodies. Otherwise, we may get altitude sickness. Regarding Everest Base Camp, we at least need 2 days for acclimatization: one day at Namche and the other is at Dingboche. If we avoid this acclimatization, our Everest Base Camp Trek may turn to be more challenging. Thus, we recommend you to go with the itinerary which includes two days of acclimatization.
