Mount Everest Base Camp (EBC) Location and its history

There are two Everest Base Camps that are the endpoints of tours: the North Base Camp and the South Base Camp. The southern base camp lies in Nepal, which is the endpoint of the most famous trek. The northern camp lies in China and can be assessed via a roadway. But reaching the Nepalese side requires you to trek for days. It is also more popular. 

Everest Base Camp was born when the mountaineers were looking for a place to store supplies at the base of the mountain. Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay used the South Everest Base Camp to keep their gear. The point was chosen as it was easily accessible to non-mountaineers. Now, the same point is the endpoint of the Everest Base Camp Trek.

Hiking Choices for the Mt. Everest Base Camp Trip

Throughout the globe, Mt. Everest Base Camp Trek in Nepal is the most famous trip among extreme adventure seekers. We have multiple choices of trekking routes. The choices differ according to your length of stay, plan for adventure, and determination.

First, the traditional walking route is from Lukla, which leads directly to the base camp and is shorter. You start the journey in Lukla and it passes through villages in Phakding, Namche, Tengboche, Lobuche, and Gorakshep. The distance from Lukla to Everest Base Camp is, approx 38.5 miles, i.e. 62 Km. Finally, you reach the final destination after Gorakshep. This Mt. Everest Base Camp Trek route is more popular. So, it’s relatively safer.
