2025 Solukhumbu Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

#CelebrateWithTrip It's time for us to bid farewell to the majestic mountain range that we ventured for nearly 8 days. it was so hard to say goodbye but we know we gonna be here once again hopefully to conquer the Everest Base Camp, atleast. We gonna miss our sherpa; Baba & Raj. The food, the hospitality, the amazing view and the people. But one thing for sure, we are not missing the coldness. I dont enjoy the need to freeze everytime we had to take ablution, wash our face, and even brushing our teeth. heheh. sleeping in the bag was also not fun. but we are glad to experience all that. On our way back, we took a picture to the highest unofficial starbucks outlet at Solukhumbu region. #hiking #mountain #everestpanoramatrek #nepal

#holidayseason Gorak Shep is a village near a frozen lake at an altitude of 5164 meters above sea level, not far from Everest. It is located in the Solukhumbu district of Eastern Nepal. The altitude above 5000 m means that the air is thinner and the senses are carried away. The scenery is breathtaking and there are many possibilities for excursions. In Sherpa language, Gorakshep means dead crow, because the terrain is not suitable for farming or agriculture. Therefore, the residents here are engaged in serving tourists and climbers as porters or guides. Gorak Shep is the last permanent settlement on the way to Everest Base Camp. Gorakshep has mountain shelters for porters and climbers and a high-altitude hotel. At this altitude, few people feel comfortable and many suffer from symptoms of altitude sickness. The best months for mountain hiking in this area are spring (March-April) and autumn (October-November). During these seasons, the views of the highest peaks are perfect and the temperatures are not too low. In winter (April-November), you can also go hiking; but most of the mountain lodges and hotels are closed, the trails are covered with snow and can be icy. Despite the remoteness, few tea houses and lodges have WIFI connection, and NCELL XNUMXG network is also available for better internet connection. There is also a project for the production and use of biogas. The territory of the dry lake is used to bury waste brought by the Sherpas from Everest. #awesomepic#couplestrip

#2024wish Two years ago, I embarked on a remarkable trek to Everest Base Camp, navigating through one of the world's finest hiking trails. The journey unfolded amidst breathtaking landscapes, weaving through towering peaks and serene valleys. The rugged terrain presented both challenges and awe-inspiring vistas, creating an extraordinary experience etched in memory. As I ascended, each step revealed the grandeur of the Himalayas, a testament to nature's majesty. The Everest Base Camp itself stood as a symbol of determination and achievement. The crisp mountain air and panoramic views painted an unforgettable backdrop. This trek, undoubtedly, remains one of the best experiences of my life, blending physical endurance with the unparalleled beauty of the world's highest peaks. In 2024, I wish to visit Pokhara.

Mount Everest is known in Nepal as "Sagarmatha", the goddess mother of the world. The way to Everest, the highest mountain in the world, starts with flying from Kathmandu in to Lukla. Pakhding is the first stop which takes 4-5 hours to reach. You can find Nepalese tea houses during the whole trek to rest in. Second route is Namche Bazaar (3440 m), takes 5-6 hour to reach. When you reach there the dramatic view of the Everest will be appearing for the first time from kilometres away! Beautiful landscape around you will change as you continue to climb higher and higher#mounteverest

When standing under Mount Everest, the temple looks small. As humans, we are even more tinier! Stunningly captured by @black.sail_ , we can sense the majesty of the world’s highest mountain.
