If you're eager to explore the Everest region but have limited time, consider taking our ten-day tour. You'll stay in a luxurious Himalayan lodge at night, and during the day you can either trek or take a helicopter ride through the area. One of the highlights of the trip is visiting Kongde, a panoramic ridgeline with stunning views of the Everest region that is not often visited by trekkers.
Embark on a trail from Thame to Kongde that winds through a beautiful forest of rhododendrons and junipers, past streams, waterfalls, and magnificent mountain views. Kongde is situated on a high plateau, flanked by the towering, snow-covered Kongde Ri. Experience a lavish stay in Kongde, indulging in 360-degree views of Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Cholatse, and other peaks.
The route from Thame to Kongde involves walking on narrow paths with sheer drops on the exposed side, which can be overwhelming for those unaccustomed to high mountain terrain. Prior experience with high-altitude trekking is recommended. If you're up for the challenge, dust off your hiking boots and embark on this adventure - it's sure to be a memorable journey.
