The word Sherpa is not a title and does not mean mountaineer, guide or
porter. Sherpa is the name of the ethnic group who inhabit the southern
flanks of the Himalayan range in north-east Nepal. Sherpas are of Tibetan
origin who migrated from the Kham province in Tibet about 200 years ago.
The Sherpa language is a dialect of Tibetan; and their religion is Buddhism.
Due to their natural acclimatization to high altitude, they are amongst the
best trekkers and mountaineers in Nepal
Everest Adventure - Trekking in Nepal
12 days in Nepal
Everest Adventure is custom designed trek for travellers who don't have the time and desire to spend sleepless nights in the high country
of the Everest Base Camp and Kala Pathar. The trek begins after a short flight from Kathmandu to
Tenzing-Hillary Airport at Lukla and follows the
classic expedition route of the '50s to Namche Bazaar. There are several vantage points with awesome views of Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Pumori,
the twin peaks of Ama Dablam, and the snowcapped panorama of other Himalayan giants. The other highlights of this trek are visiting delightful
Sherpa villages, less frequented side valley of Thame and meeting the friendly people. Also visiting the active monastery of Thyangboche to
experience the spirituality of Tibetan Buddhism so prevalent in this high country.
GRADE C (Moderate to Strenuous):
Everest Adventure is 7 days moderate to strenuous trekking on rocky terrain at medium to high elevation (max. 3962 m)
- 7 nights accommodation in local lodges - 4 nights in Kathmandu hotel. Everest Adventure Trek requires that you are in good physical condition
