Everest
Region |
| The Everest region is located in the northeast
of Nepal. The most visited part of this region is
Solokhumbu district, home of the legendary Sherpas
and the highest peak of the world, the Mt, Everest
at 8,848 meters. To the north of Solokhumbu is Everest
National park, while to the east is the Makalu Barun
National Park .The major ethnic groups that live
in the Everest region are Sherpas, Rais, Tamangs,
Brahmans and Chhettris. |

Diverse range of wildlife and vegetation are seen in
the region. Animals to be sighted are mountain goat,
musk deer and barking deer in the forests. Birds include
Impeyan Pheasant (Danfe), ravens, crows, choughs and
snow pigeons. The best time to visit is springs and
autumn . Popular trekking areas are Everest Base Camp,
Gokyo Valley, Lukla , Pike Danda, Dudh kunda, Salleri,
Chiwong Circuit, Hinkhu, Hongu Valleys and Everest to
Arun Valley . Interesting landmarks near Syangboche
are Khumjung school built by Sir Edmund Hillary in 1961
and Khunde Hospital north of Namche Bazaar established
in 1968. How to trek in Everest region depends on the
route chosen. Tea house trekking is possible on the
main trail to Everest Base Camp or the route up Gokyo
Valley . The trail from Jiri to Lukla also has tea house
on the way.
Entry Point:
Everest region can be reached by air or on foot, buses
to Jiri leave from the new bus park in Kathmandu. Jiri
is a ten- hour drive from Kathmandu. By air, there are
three options . The most convenient for Everest trek
is Lukla, which is serviced by many airlines with daily
flights from Kathmandu . Another option is the airstrip
at Phaplu , near the district headquarter which is serviced
by daily flights from the capital. The last choice is
the small airstrip at Syangboche which is located above
Namche Bazaar. Despite being an option, altitude makes
it an impractical and unwise choice as an arrival destination
for acclimatization reasons.
