Best Time for Everest Base Camp Photography Trek in 2025-2026

The best time for Everest Base Camp Photography Trek with Sleep in Everest Base Camp depends on the weather and climatic conditions. While the spring and autumn months are regarded to be the ideal time for this incredible venture, you may have a slight window in the winter season as well.

If you are traveling in spring, between March and May, you will find the conditions in the Himalayas fair and stable. The temperatures are mild with low chances of rain. Along the trail, you will find blooming rhododendrons and other wildflowers. Also, the view of the mountains and other landscapes has better visibility.

Likewise, autumn (September to November) is the peak trekking season in the Everest region. Like the spring season, autumn also has stable weather with clear visibility. However, autumn is a bit cooler and there is an even lesser chance of rain during these months. Along the way, you will find fellow trekkers flocking the area. Due to a large influx of tourists in autumn, you may find it difficult to get a room. Therefore, we advise booking in advance.

Previously, winter treks to Everest Base Camp were not typically recommended. However, due to global warming, the conditions in the Himalayas are favorable for trekking. Despite snow and chilly weather, you will find the daytime temperatures manageable. You may find occasional fogs disrupting your views, but there are also large windows where you can enjoy the stunning landscape and the panoramic mountain vistas.

However, trekking in the monsoon is not advisable. There are always chances of high rainfall contributing to slippery trails and limited mountain views. If you are new to the conditions of the Everest region, we recommend avoiding photography adventures in the monsoon.

We will be flying in a twin-otter airplane. During the peak season, we may be required to drive to Ramechhap to catch our flight to Lukla. However, this diversion possibility is slim.

During the flight, we will get the first taste of the surreal mountains and amazing landscapes of the Himalayas. After a 35-minute flight, we will reach Lukla. From here, we will take on the EBC trails. Our first stop is Phakding.

These sites provide incredible views of Mount Makalu. Alternatively, you can climb Nagarjuna Hill to capture the Ama Dablam, Everest, and Lhotse panorama.

The images of the Milky Way over the snow-capped peaks are breathtaking from here. Wake up before sunrise to capture the magnificent view of the sun emerging over the mountains as the golden rays paint the sky in different hues of gold and orange.

Today, we retrace our path back to Gorakshep. Our journey takes us through the rugged terrain offering magnificent views of the Himalayas. As we descend, we can find a more expansive surrounding vista with mountains on the backdrop of the vast glacial fields.

Once we reach Gorakshep, we advise heading to bed early as we will take on another ascent to Kala Patthar before sunrise.

Our trek today begins with a challenging morning ascent. The aim is to reach Kala Patthar before sunrise. From Kala Patthar, we can catch the iconic view of the Everest peak. Also, we can capture the sunrise over the world’s tallest peak and its surrounding mountains. We will find the golden rays of the sun spread over Everest, Nuptse, and Pumori offering an incredible photo opportunity.

After spending some time in Kala Patthar, we begin our descent to Pheriche. The trail takes us through rugged landscapes, glacial moraines, and alpine meadows. Every corner of the trek offers a photo opportunity. However, walk at a steady pace to reach our destined tea house/lodge in Pheriche before dark.

The trek from Pheriche to Namche begins shortly after breakfast. We take on a descent through the diverse landscape comprising the alpine meadows of Pheriche, then take on the rhododendron forests, and vibrant greenery. Along the trail, views of Ama Dablam and Thamserku give us company.
