Does the idea of a luxury trek to Everest Base Camp appeal to you? The best seasons to undertake such a journey are spring (February to May) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is more stable and the skies are clear. However, in the winter months of December and January, trekkers also enjoy the beauty of fresh snowfall and crystal clear views of the Himalayas.
Until then, all that is left is to prepare yourself for the adventure of a lifetime. This is your chance to explore the enchanting wonders of Mother Nature and reach the foot of the world’s highest mountain with Discover Altitude Treks.
