Everest Panorama Trek route

Further, the trek will move forward toward the steep hills, smaller rivers, streams, and glaciers. The Everest Panorama trek is the synopsis of the natural diversity of Nepal that attracts thousands of tourists every year. 

When you reach Jorsalle, you will continue your trek along the Dudh Koshi River's bank and enter the Sagarmatha National Park. Sagarmatha National Park is one of the richest habitats for a wide variety of flora and fauna. The animals like musk deer, Himalayan Tahr, bears, red panda, and snow leopard are the most preserved faunas in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

Alongside many adventures, there are many recreational things on the Everest Panorama trek. There are various suspension bridges and diverse terrain, which offer mesmerizing views of natural landscapes and the Himalayas. The trail will move forward to the Namche Bazaar, which is the trading capital of the Khumbu region.

We will gradually ascend to Khumjung Village, one of the world's highest localities. Khumjung monastery has preserved the half football-like shaped scalp, which is alleged to be Yeti. The monastery allows the public to see the Yeti Scalp for a few hundred Nepali Rupees. 

The trail will further move ahead through the rocky pathway to Tengboche. You will be able to have a partial view of the Everest, Nuptse, and Lhotse mountains. Tengboche accommodates thousands of tourists daily and offers recreational value for tourists. Tengboche monastery, built in 1923 AD, is the largest monastery in the Khumbu region.

You will take a step back down the hill from Tengboche to Monjo. Monjo is a beautiful village that lies just north of Phakding. Monjo is the alternative stopping point of Phakding, and it is the major stopping point of our Everest Panorama Trek itinerary. The Monjo village adorned with cultural importance has a lot of lodges and guesthouses built in a way that shows the ancient and modern culture of the Khumbu region.

The Everest View trek is full of amusement and worthiness, offering many experiences under the same trek.

Travel tips for Everest Panorama Trek 

  • There won’t be any ATM above Namche Bazar, so make sure you have enough hard cash to spend for the rest of your trekking except for the inclusions in your package.
