Overview

Everest Luxury Lodge Trek is true to what its name sounds because its itinerary includes accommodation in Everest Summit Lodge and Yeti Mountain Homes, which are the most renowned hotels of the Everest Region for their comfort and which have beautiful gardens. These hotels have well-accomplished bedrooms, as well as attached bathroom and western toilets that are rarely found in other lodges.

Each of these mountains ranges above 8000 m plus. All these mountains that you see and all the trekking trail that you follow are in the Sagarmatha National Park.

This park is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is also a home to different species of floras and different kinds of faunas, including an endangered one like a snow leopard, and last but not least, it is also a home to a renowned monastery of the Everest Region called the Tengboche Monastery.
