Trip overview
Katmandu – Lukla – Namche-Bazaar – BC – summit – BC – Namche-Bazaar – Lukla - Katmandu
Why go there?
In spring 2020 we have decided to offer you a full service Everest Expedition from the South Side of Everest
The price includes:
- High-altitude sherpa — 1,5 for 1 member
- Guides — multiple Everest summiters — 1 for 5 members
- Oxygen cylinders "POISK" — 8 items for one climber
- fully equipped Base Camps 5100m
- we provide mattresses for common use in high camps
- 4 fully equipped High Camps 6100,6400, 7100m and 8000m — including tents, mattresses, gas-stoves, pans, gas-cylinders, dried food, oxygen bottles, delivered to High Camps by expedition Sherpas
All high-altitude Sherpas have Everest experience. They bring all shared equipment and oxygen cylinders in high camps and accompany team all the way from BC to the Summit
Our expedition starts in Katmandu: we meet in “Yak & Yeti” 5* hotel. We have transfers from the airport to the hotel for those arriving with later flights. First few days we do the formalities and organize excursions around Katmandu city.
Two days later we start our journey to Everest: we fly from Katmandu to Lukla and than we have about a week for trekking to Everest BC. In 6 days we get to the Everest BC (5350m). By this time yaks and porters bring our stuff, Sherpas are establishing BC. After 2-3 days rest in BC our Sherpas carry equipment to camps 6100m and 6400m. One day later after camps is ready, the expedition members start for first acclimatization.
During acclimatization we will reach Camp 7300m. Usually it is difficult to achieve due to the bad weather or lack of acclimatization. In the later case we will descend to BC or down to the Namche Bazar and have a rest.
So after May 15-17 we will all move to BC and start looking for a break in the weather for summit push.
The advantage of our expedition is that it does not start too early and that it finishes before May 31. The end of May is usually the best time for the ascent in terms of weather.
At the end we return to Katmandu. We stay at “Yak & Yeti” 5* hotel and from here we will depart for the airport to take a flight home, each of us taking a piece of Everest in his heart.
