Essential Information
Travel insurance
Travel
insurance for each of our company's travel routes is a prerequisite for booking
a vacation. You must have at least one emergency and repatriation insurance
that should cover the cost of the mountain rescue. Read the terms of your
insurers carefully, especially make sure that the following is covered: 1)
activity (i.e., tourism, trekking or mountaineering) 2) maximum altitude
reached on the trek 3) evacuation of the helicopter for the case of an
emergency. You must understand that you are ultimately responsible for all
costs associated with evacuation and return procedures and that it is your
responsibility to bear the costs of evacuations or medical treatment. You
should be fully aware of the effects of organizing your travel insurance and
understand the limitations and exclusions of your policy. Please note that
under certain circumstances, our company leader can initiate helicopter rescue
(or other necessary means) in medical emergencies without first asking your
insurance company for approval.
Physical condition and experience
requirements
The Luxury
Everest Trek is moderate. If you can walk about 5 to 6 hours a day, you can
easily walk longer hours with a light backpack. The trail is relatively more
comfortable for those who regularly walk at higher altitudes. We kindly ask you
to run and train regularly at least a few months before the start of your trip.
Past hiking experiences would be a bonus, but you do no technical skills for
this trip. It is also essential that you consult with your doctor before
booking the trek.
Altitude
acclimatization is the adaptation process to lower the oxygen content at higher
altitudes to avoid altitude sickness. We have booked two separate days to
complete the hike and minimize the risk of acute mountain sickness, two different
days in Namche Bazaar and Gokyo.
The difficulty of trekking in the Everest base camp is tiring. At temperatures down to -15 degrees Celsius, you have to walk almost 7to 8 hours a day. Also, strenuous excursions are much longer than moderate plus hikes. Tiring trips take an average of 13 to 20 days. Trekking in such cold weather and for such a long period requires the right level of fitness. Also, you need mental strength to complete these trips.
Because altitude sickness poses a high risk when walking the Everest Base Camp Trek, you should not hurry during the trek. You have to do your slow and steady hike to get to Everest base camp without being exhausted. On average, you can walk 6 to 7 hours a day. However, the higher you go, the more difficult it will be to walk.
We suggest you do Cardiovascular exercises such as running, cycling, and jogging 3-4 days a week for a few months before the trip can be beneficial. You can also do other muscle strengthening and endurance training sessions. Examining how your body responds to high altitude increases the success rate of your trip.
Fall and spring are the best seasons for trekking at Everest Base Camp. During these times, the weather is fewer likely to get great. The humidity is low, and the chance of rain is also very low. In winter, we can have a foggy climate, but on bright days the snow in these mountains thickens by a few extra centimeters, which increases the beauty of the Himalayas. However, the temperature this season drops below freezing. During the summer, the mountains are exposed to heavy rainfall on most days. It is also the least suitable season for the flight. At this time of year, the weather can become drastic in seconds. We plan the hike according to the weather forecast, giving priority to your safety. Even in autumn and spring, you should prepare for some cold nights as you approach the base camp.
