Alternatively, you can choose to camp in tents provided by trekking companies. Keep in mind that facilities are basic, and amenities like showers may not be available.

At Everest Base Camp stay overnight, the food is simple yet hearty, largely depending on what the travel agency can manage and offer. Expect to eat dal bhat, a traditional Nepali dish popular among trekkers and mountaineers. The menu also includes dishes like noodle soup, pasta, and fruit.
Meals are often prepared using locally sourced ingredients such as fresh vegetables and grains, cooked using portable stoves or gas burners. The cook and support staff hired by our trekking agency prepare all the meals, often going to great lengths to ensure trekkers are well-fed and satisfied.

- Breakfast: Eggs, bread, pancakes, Tibetan bread, with hot beverages like coffee or tea.

- Dinner: Dal bhat, noodles, pasta, stir-fried vegetables, momo, and soup.
Altitude: EBC is situated at an altitude of approximately 5,364 meters (17,598 feet) above sea level. Acclimatization is crucial to avoid altitude sickness, so it’s recommended to ascend gradually and spend a few days at intermediate altitudes before reaching EBC. Symptoms of altitude sickness include headache, nausea, and dizziness.
Weather: Weather conditions at EBC can be harsh and unpredictable, with temperatures often dropping below freezing, especially at night. It’s essential to pack appropriate clothing for cold weather, including thermal layers, a warm sleeping bag, a down jacket, gloves, and a hat. Additionally, be prepared for windy conditions and the possibility of snowfall.
Health and Safety: Trekkers should be in good physical condition and consult with a healthcare professional before undertaking the trek. It’s essential to stay hydrated, eat nutritious meals, and listen to your body’s signals. In case of any health concerns, there are medical facilities available at lower altitudes, but evacuation from EBC in case of emergencies can be challenging.
Permits and Guides: Trekkers need to obtain permits to enter Sagarmatha National Park and the Khumbu region, where EBC is located. Additionally, hiring a licensed guide or joining a trekking group is recommended for navigation, safety, and local insight.
Packing List: Some essential items to pack for the EBC trek include sturdy hiking boots, trekking poles, a headlamp, sunscreen, sunglasses, a first aid kit, water purification tablets, and snacks. It’s also advisable to bring cash, as ATM access is limited in the Everest region.
Trekking Routes: There are several trekking routes to EBC, with the most popular starting from Lukla and passing through villages like Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, and Dingboche. The trek typically takes around 12-17 days round trip from Lukla, but the duration can vary depending on the itinerary and acclimatization schedule.
