FAQs

  • The flight to Lukla itself is an adventure. The airport in Lukla, called Tenzing-Hillary Airport or simply Lukla Airport, is built upon treacherous terrain. The runaway is only 527 m/1,729 ft long and 30 m/ 98 ft. wide. On one side of the runaway is a cliff wall and on the other is a sheer drop into the valley below. It is built at an altitude of 2,846 m/ 9,337 ft also contributes to the danger of flying to it. At these altitudes, the air density is significantly lower than the operational limits of most aircraft.

    Adding to all these concerns is the erratic weather of the Himalayas. Unfavorable weather reduces visibility, and there is no radar here. Due to all these reasons, it is dubbed 'The World's Most Dangerous Airport.

    However, there is no reason to panic as the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal has set a high standard for any pilot flying to or from the airport. To be eligible for a flight to this airport, a pilot must have completed 100 short take-off and landing flights, at least one year of experience flying in Nepal, and ten flights to Lukla with a certified instructor.

  • Kala Patthar is the highest point of the Everest Base Camp budget trek at the impressive elevation of 5,644.5 m/ 18,519 ft. It means 'black rock' and is a point on the south ridge of Pumori (7,161 m/ 23,494 ft) above Gorakshep. Although it has a prominence of only 10 m/ 33 ft, it still provides a great view of the Himalayas, particularly of the peaks Mt Everest (8,848.86 m/ 29,031.7 ft), Nuptse (7,861 m/ 25,791 ft), Lhotse (8,516 m/ 27,940 ft), and Changtse (7,543 m/ 24,747 ft).

  • The Everest Base Camp is located just below the Khumbu Icefalls and above the settlement of Gorakshep at an elevation of 5,364 m/ 17,598 ft. It has many facilities for the convenience and safety of climbers and trekkers, including a helipad and hospitals during the climbing season. However, trekkers are restricted from spending the night here, as only climbers and the Everest marathon groups are allowed to overnight.

  • Hard.Everest Base Camp (EBC) is 5,364 m (17,598 ft) height.

    The trails you will walk on during your Everest Base Camp Trekking will take you from lush sub-tropical forests to the tundra. The terrain you will walk on will be just as varied. You will walk on dirt paths at lower elevations with some paved sections. At higher altitudes, you will walk on rocky terrain, on large boulders, and on the moraine of various glaciers.

    Speaking of elevation, the trek starts at 2,680 meters or 8,792 feet above sea level at Lukla, and the maximum height you will reach is at Kala Patthar, where you will climb 5,545 meters or 11,283 feet above sea level.

  • The best time to do the Gay trek to Everest Base Camp is between March to May and September to November, during the spring and autumn seasons, respectively.

    Autumn(September-November): The temperature ranges from -10 to 13 °C. The nights are colder than the days. It rarely rains at this time of the year.

  • The classic route to the Gay trekking to Everest Base Camp takes you through the villages of Tengboche-Dingboche-Lobuche from Namche. From Lobuche, you head to Gorakshep and, finally, the base camp.

    Alternatively, you can go through the villages of Tengboche-Pheriche-Lobuche after Namche and head to the base camp.

    Another trek, called the three passes trek, leads you through a complete circuit of the Khumbu region. For this trip, you would follow the classic route until you arrive at Lobuche after visiting EBC. From here, you would cross the Cho La pass and reach Gokyo. Then, you would cross the Renjo La pass and arrive at Lungde. From here, you would descend to Namche again, passing through the village of Thame.

    You can also combine the Gokyo Valley trek and the EBC Gay trek. You would depart to the Gokyo Valley before or after reaching EBC from Namche.

    Group leaders can be considered the expert guides who are well-versed on the trek route and armed with additional cultural and historical knowledge of the regions you will be traveling through.

  • Even though the Everest Base Camp Trek is one of the most renowned treks in the entire world, it is still a trip into the mountains through remote villages not connected to the outside world through roads. Communication services are also not reliable and may not be of use all the time. The only way to quickly evacuate an injured trekker is through a helicopter, which is unreliable. In an emergency, a solo traveler may not be able to contact the helicopter in the first place. Even if they can do so, the helicopter may not be able to land nearby. At this time, they need someone to carry them to safety and monitor their health.

    Due to these reasons, even with the best preparations and insurance, solo gay travelers can be stranded if they suffer a debilitating injury. So, traveling with gay guides or gay froendly porters or in a gay group is always recommended. However, if you cannot form a gay group or feel that hiring gay guides and  gay friendly porters is beyond your budget, you can join our gay group to undertake this beautiful trek instead. Traveling in one of our large gay groups, the cost of the trip and the hassle of booking hotel rooms and filing documents will be considerably lowered, not to mention the safety from the dangers mentioned above. So, if you are a solo traveler, join the team!

    Since, April 1, 2023, it is mandetory to hire a guide for trekking in Nepal.

  • Tipping is not mandatory in Nepal. However, it is expected due to the low wages guides and porters earn. 10% to 15% of the overall trip is a good tip. If at all possible, tip each of your guides and porters individually.

  • Depends on. Mostly cheaper than the city areas hotel. Better to let your guide to deal with hotel.

  • Cost to Trek to Everest Base Camp is depend on number of days you want to spend in Everest region during trekking, Level of services, quality of Guide, the season, and the level of service.

    Had a great experience with Pink Mountain

    I had a great experience with Pink Mountain Tours on my first visit to Nepal. They helped me prepare for the trip - advising on what to pack, recommending accommodation and organising the whole trek to the Himalayas. They are able to offer greater flexibility with dates and itinerary than larger operators and were able to accommodate last minute changes when my travel companion fell ill.

    Pink Mountain arranged for airport pick up to my accommodation and showed me around Kathmandu, including a sunrise at Nagarkot followed by a day trip to the world heritage Bhaktapur. The trekking in Sagarmatha National Park was well prepared and tailored to our dates and request to include Gokyo Ri on the way to Everest Base Camp / Kala Patthar. Our guide met us before the trek in Thamel and checked to make sure our equipment was roadworthy. He was able to recommend places where I could rent or buy additional equipment and it was nice to meet him before the trek to get acquainted.

    The trek was amazing, the scenery superb and the guide and porter very knowledgeable and friendly. The choice of accommodation was comfortable given the remoteness of the National Park and we were able to set our own pace and stop whenever we wanted. The guide was particularly helpful in getting us down safely from Gokyo Ri and Kala Patthar after amazing sunsets at the top. We were luck with the weather but the snow storm on the way down would have been much more dangerous without their support. Overall highly recommended – safe, experienced and friendly service.
