DIFFICULTY LEVEL OF EVEREST EASY VIEW TREK
The trek to Everest Easy View Trek is moderate. You don't need any prior trekking expertise because the trail is marked as moderate. However, trekkers should be aware that they will be hiking up and down an uneven terrain with steep routes, ridges, and rocky paths, for an average of 5-6 hours every day. The vistas along the way are well worth the effort.
Regular exercises such as walking and aerobics can help maintain your body’s stamina. Given the lower oxygen levels at higher altitudes, cardiovascular activities, and hill training can be beneficial in preparing for the changing trail conditions.
At such a high altitude, acquiring Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is a risk. As a result, standard altitude safety precautions must be followed. Continuing walking at an increasing altitude will produce AMS symptoms, so it is recommended to stop and acclimatize in Namche Bazaar. Climbing less than 600 meters each day is encouraged. Medications like Diamox, which acts as a respiratory stimulant, can help prevent AMS.
To be able to trek through Everest base camp without difficulty, you’ll need a certain level of energy and endurance. As the trek is above 3500 meters, acute mountain sickness is a distinct possibility. While most people may only experience minor discomfort, a small percentage may require special attention.
