Meals on Everest Base Camp Trek

3 meals ( 1 Set Breakfast, 1 Item Lunch, and 1 Item Dinner ) will be served during the trekking days of Everest Base Camp Trek. The lunch is being served on the way while the dinner and the breakfast are usually served during the stay at the teahouses. There are choices available in the Everest Base Camp in comparison to the Langtang or Annapurna Trekking. You won’t get the yummy food as you usually eat at home but the taste of the meals available in the mountains is really different and mouth-watering. Pizza, Noodles, Sandwiches, etc are available. Trekking Trail Nepal do not recommend eating meat during the trekking days to EBC as we cannot guarantee for its freshness and it might upset your stomach and hamper your dream destination Everest Base Camp. But if you want, you can eat the non-vegetarian food items available. It’s your own choices from the menu to order the food. It gets ready after you ordered in the teahouses. So, kindly enjoy the 3 basic meals being provided during the whole trail of Best Everest Base Camp Trek . More about Meals on Trekking.

Everest Base Camp Trek Accommodation

You will have options for accommodation during the stay in Kathmandu valley. Trekking Trail Nepal provides tourist standard hotel with air-conditioned private room our guests. There is a master bed or two single beds in the rooms. Unless you are single, we offer one double room for 2 guests. If you have your own preference, kindly let us know ahead so that we can arrange accordingly for the comfortable stay. You Can upgrade the Accommodation in Kathmandu with Extra Cost for your Everest Base Camp Trek.

During the trekking in the Himalayas, please do not expect the best standard hotels. The hotels or lodges in the mountains are of a high standard providing all the basic facilities but it might be small in comparison to the hotels of Kathmandu. You will be amazed how these lodges/ hotels were built in such remote areas. Similar to the food, the accommodation is also better in Everest Base Camp than in Langtang or Annapurna trekking regions. In the mountains, it is usually twin sharing rooms. If you prefer for the single stay, you will have to pay extra charges for it. There are luxury standard rooms which are available but it is usually provided under the Everest Luxury Trekking. Though the accommodation is always in the lodges or teahouses in the mountains, we still advise you to have your own sleeping bag with you during the whole trekking.

Best Season for Everest Base Camp Trekking

The best recommended season for Everest Base Camp Trekking is usually spring and autumn seasons. Though the trekking can be organized during any time of the year, February to May and October to December are considered better for the trekking to Everest Base Camp. During these seasons, the views are clear and the stunning views of the magnificent mountains are eye-soothing and heart-touching. You will feel like to stay there for the rest of the life but it’s quite not possible. During monsoon, the sky is cloudy, visibility of the mountains is poor and it rains frequently leaving behind the wet and slippery roads. So, it is better not to plan the trekking during the monsoon. The blossoming month is usually March to April, and you can enjoy the Rhododendron blooming everywhere on the way along with the other flowers and green jungles. Since the Everest Base Camp Trek is a golden opportunity and a lifetime wish, we request you to plan your trip accordingly to make it life worthy. For More
