Everest Three Pass and Three Base Camp Trek - Essential Information
When is the best time for the Everest Three pass and three base Camp trek?
March-May(Spring) and September-End November (Autumn) are the best time to do this trek as the weather is clearer in the day with less snow and the evening is pleasant with fewer chances of snowfall or rain. Nature is more lively and beautiful along with the vegetation can be observed properly. The high passes are covered in less snow, making them easier to climb.
Is Physical and mental Fitness necessary for the trek?
People with good physical and mental fitness who perform regular exercise are recommended for this trek and people with heart disease and other injuries are to be consulted with their doctor before booking the trek as the trek days are long with a strenuous walk over some of the high passes and base camp of Everest region. In addition, high altitude experience is also a plus point.
Why are Extra days important for Everest Trekking?
The weather in the Everest region can change all of a sudden in minutes so sometimes the Lukla flight may be canceled for a few hours or maybe a day or two. You can miss your international flight due to bad weather so having extra days may be crucial when trekking on Everest.
