This is the walk to the base of Everest itself, following the Sherpa trading trails of the Khumbu from the mountain airstrip at Lukla to the glacier at 5,364 m. This 8-day highlights itinerary strings together the essential stages — Lukla, Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche and Gorak Shep — for trekkers who are already fit and short on time.

Altitude, not distance, is the real difficulty. The classic route builds in extra acclimatisation days at Namche and Dingboche; on this compressed version you should be confident with altitude, walk slowly, and turn back if symptoms appear.

Getting there. Fly to Kathmandu, then take the short, dramatic mountain flight to Lukla (2,860 m), where the trek begins. Most trekkers walk back down the same valleys, or fly out from Lukla; some take a helicopter from Gorak Shep or Pheriche to save the return days.

Permits & tickets. You need the Sagarmatha National Park entry permit and the local Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality permit, both bought en route or in Kathmandu. A licensed guide is now required for trekking in the region.
