Everest Advanced Base Camp Trek in Tibet
Tibet Everest Advance Base Camp Trek (6340m/20800ft) is the highest trek of the world where you will get to experience the beautiful landscape of Tibet also known as The Roof of the World. Your trip starts at Lhasa staying 3 nights there for acclimatization. We will explore Lhasa city including Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, Norbulingka Palaces along with other main city attractions. On the next day, we will drive to Gyantse- Shigatse-Ronbuk (via Xegar/Tingri) from Lhasa.
We will also visit Tibetan Monasteries: Khumbum Stupa, Palkhor Monastery, Panchen Lama’s Tashilhunpo Monastery in between travel to Rongbuk. We will trek to Everest Advance Base Camp following the route used by the Everest Summiteers taking you as close to the Everest without any climbing permits.
This route is typically used by climbers attempting to the summit who continue on past Advanced Base Camp and follow the North Col and then the Northeast Ridge to the summit. The trek to Camp 3 and the base of the North Col via the East Rongbuk Glacier is an incredible journey.
