| Kalapatthar
and Everest Base Camp Trek - 15 Days
 This
trek also goes through Namche and Tengpoche then heads toward Mt.
Everest. Exciting suspension bridges hanging over raging rivers
and long uphill hiking lets you know your approaching the highest
mountain in the world.
Groups
then head toward the small mountain of Kala Pattar
which sits across from Everest and Has the most spectacular views
of the mountain.
Most groups
then start the trek back to Lukla but if being at the actual base

trek from Lukla to Kala Pattar to Lukla takes a total of 14 days
and reaches an elevation of 5545 meters.
