Everest Base Camp Trek
Join our team and trek through breathtakingly beautiful scenery to reach Everest Base Camp and wonder in awe at the highest point on our Earth.
Nepal is a country in a league of its own with breathtakingly beautiful scenery, a fascinating culture and friendly people. Your route takes you via the Sherpa capital of Namche Bazaar through beautiful valleys, dense forests and across glacial rivers, enjoying tantalising glimpses of the mighty Everest before you reach your goal of Base Camp.
This is an open challenge, so you’ll be taking part with a group of like-minded people fundraising for a range of charities. You’ll still receive the same level of support as on our bespoke challenges, and with Discover Adventure’s highly experienced team you’re in good hands.
