trip Overview

Everest Panorama Trek neither demands a trekking experience nor a long time. Start from Lukla and spend a leisurely day at Namche for acclimatization. Then move on gently as far as Tengboche to enjoy the view of Everest. You will meet and interact with trekkers and mountaineers, including those bound on the Everest expedition.

During the trek, you will discover some superb Himalayan scenery. Besides this, there is a popular Tengboche Monastery, a prototype of the Buddhist-Tibetan cultural heritage. The beauty of this monastery is intricate carvings, and exquisite artworks. The Mani Rimdu festival is held in this monastery annually during the October/November full moon. It draws flocks of visitors to the area with its colorful masked dances. From this monastery, do not miss an opportunity to see Everest with your own eyes. Bring cameras for taking some great photos of the Everest panorama.

Everest Panorama Trek gives you a glimpse of numerous peaks, glaciers, gorges, ravines, and other picturesque Himalayan sceneries. Also, get a chance to get familiar with the Sherpa culture in its place of origin. It is in this region that they settled in the earlier periods of history after crossing the Himalayas from the north.

The Sherpa villages in this region like Tengboche, Namche, and Phakding still exhibit their pristine culture. Their hospitality and friendliness have gained legendary popularity among visitors of this area. Their bravery and skill have helped the Mountaineers from across the world scale the insurmountable heights of the Himalayan peaks.  Besides you can extend this trip up to Everest Base Camp or do any of the treks available in this region. We start the trek with a flight to Lukla airport from Kathmandu and end the trek back to the same place.

Great Everest View Point Trek

Our Nepal and Bhutan trip in 2020 was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and resumed in 2023. Badri was constantly in touch with us and we decided to only continue with the Nepal trip.

I have visited Nepal 6 times previously over 20 years and have never tired of this amazing place and its fantastic people. I have done EBC, Langtang, Mardi Himal, Poon Hill, Pokhara and Chitwan. And of course Kathmandu many times. This time we decided on Everest View Point and Dingboche Monastery over 7 days.

Our guide Bish and Porter Rass were brilliant. The guys took care of my unwell travel partner and arranged my trip plans to continue while he rested.

I would recommend Outdoor Himalayan as a ground agent as they have in-depth knowledge and experience and are efficient and well-priced. 5 stars!!!

They even arranged a KTM city tour and golf for us at the end of the trip. Amazing.
