One of   the best known and most visited treks in the Everest region , in Sagarmatha National Park (Sagarmatha being the Nepalese name for Everest).

This trek can be done, according to your desire, in accommodation in lodges or camping. Due to the growing success of this type of trek, accommodation in lodges has developed a lot and offers very good quality services.

This trek offers, like many treks in Nepal, a great diversity of landscapes, ranging from low-lying rice fields to snow-capped peaks. You will approach the Ama Dablam, which shares the limelight with the Macchapuchare for the most majestic mountains of  Nepal . You will evolve in Sherpa country.

Here you are offered a circuit up to  Kala Pathar , “little summit” of more than 5000 meters which offers a breathtaking view of 360 °, with sights on Everest, Pumori Peak, Nuptse, Ama Dablam in the distance … But many variations are possible depending on your desires and your physical form.
