Everest Hiking Trip FAQs

  • It is possible for a novice to hike to the Everest base camp. Although it's not the hardest trip in Nepal's Himalayas, it does need some level of physical and mental preparedness. You need to get yourself physically and psychologically ready for the hike and all of its obstacles.

  • While challenging, the trek to Everest Base Camp is hardly the hardest. This trail is well renowned for being an easy option for first-time hikers who have big goals. Anyone interested in undertaking this walk should be aware that there are roughly six hours of trekking each day, and that the trail becomes steeper and higher each day, increasing the trek's total difficulty.
