Everest Base Camp with Gokyo Lake Helicopter Return Trek – 15 Days

Trekking in Nepal can range from easy to very challenging, depending on the route and altitude. Nepal offers a wide variety of treks, from gentle, flat walks to more demanding climbs and high-altitude routes. Generally, treks can be categorized into three difficulty levels: easy to moderate (up to 4,000 meters), moderate to challenging (4,000-5,500 meters), and challenging to very challenging (above 5,500 meters). Some treks, such as the Everest Base Camp and Annapurna Circuit, can be physically demanding and require a good level of fitness. Others, like the Everest Panorama and Langtang Valley treks, are more suitable for beginners. At Mount Elegance Treks and Expedition, we offer treks to suit all levels of ability and experience. Our experienced guides will assess your physical condition and recommend the most suitable itinerary to ensure a safe and enjoyable trekking experience in Nepal.
