A successful Mount Everest expedition is the apex dream for all climbers. The feeling of standing on the top of the world is second to none. Global alpinists take on this incredible adventure regardless of the physical pressure, costs, and risks. 

Mount Everest stands between Nepal and Tibet, located in the Mahalangur Himal sub-range of the Himalayas. This mighty peak symbolizes human endurance, determination, and the spirit of exploration. Since the first attempt in 1924, many determined climbers have tried their luck at summiting the world’s tallest peak. However, it wasn’t until 1954 that Mount Everest was first conquered, making this near-impossible feat a reality. To this day, thousands of attempts have been made. While many expeditions made history, many others had disastrous endings.  

Several elements play a crucial role in the successful summit of Mount Everest.  To climb Mount Everest, you will require months of preparation. Some climbers further engage in rigorous physical and strength training for a prolonged duration to ensure that no stone is left unturned during the preparation stage.

Likewise, your Sherpa support staff is pivotal in helping you throughout your journey. They provide a reliable support system that guides the climbers and ensures their safety throughout the 61-day Mount Everest expedition. The expedition begins in Lukla. Climbers maintain a steady pace as they trek to Everest Base Camp. The climb enables them to acclimate to the Himalayas' high-altitude conditions and minimize the risks of altitude-related ailments. 

Upon reaching Mount Everest Base Camp, the climbers prepare to ascend Mount Everest. The climbing period generally lasts 45 days, passing through four camps before finally summiting the world’s tallest peak.

Mount Everest Expedition Camp Information: Four Camps at Different Altitudes 

During the Mount Everest climbing expedition, you will set camp at four prominent points. Each camp is located at a different altitude to allow climbers to acclimatize. As altitude increases, you will experience a decrease in oxygen level. Gradual acclimatization at the four camps helps adjust the decreasing oxygen level, reducing the risks of altitude sickness as they move closer to the summit. 

The key camps at different altitudes and their significance are stated below:

Camp 1: Camp 1 is located at the Khumbu Icefall at 6000 meters (20,000 feet). This is a moderate altitude where you can begin to acclimatize. In Camp 1, test your endurance and see if you can take on further challenges.

Camp 2: This camp is set up at approximately 6400 meters (21,000 feet) toward the foot of the Lhotse wall by your support staff. This is another acclimatization point. After reaching Camp 2, you return to EBC to maintain altitude adaptation.

Camp 3: Camp 3 is at the midway point from the Lhotse Face. You will find a spectacular view of the Himalayan landscape from the camp. Spend up to three nights at around 7100 meters (23294 feet) in Camp 3. Remember that the air gradually gets thinner. So, if required, you can request the use of oxygen cylinders to regulate the oxygen flow.

Camp 4: Camp 4 is the final rest point before your expedition team pushes for the Everest summit. Situated at an altitude of 8000 meters (26300 feet), this camp, also known as South Col, is located near the death zone. The conditions in Camp 4 can be extreme, with strong winds and chilling temperatures. You will spend a total of two days in Camp 4. On your ascent, you will set camp here and likewise spend another day as you descend.

Peak Climbing in Nepal: Preparing for Mount Everest Expedition

Before heading for a major expedition, we recommend that you climb smaller peaks. Expert climbers suggest that these preliminary climbs will help you acclimatize and get used to the high-altitude conditions of Mount Everest. Peak climbing before heading to Mount Everest also helps climbers improve their technical strength. It is crucial to get familiar with the physical and mental endurance required during the climb. 

As you acclimate to the Everest summit ascent, your guide will take you on several peak climbing expeditions in the Everest region. In this process, you will descend from various camps in Mount Everest and head to a lower-altitude area such as Lobuche or Dingboche. 

From Lobuche, your expedition team will climb Lobuche Peak. After a successful ascent of Lobuche Peak, you will head to Dingboche. From here, you will take on the Island Peak expedition. Both of these peaks help you to improve your technical skills and boost morale before your Everest expedition and improve the chances of a successful Mount Everest climbing expedition. 

Among many alternatives, Mount Makalu (8,485 meters) and Ama Dablam (6812 meters) are also excellent alternatives to improve your ice and rock climbing techniques. You will find similarities in the altitude, technical challenges, and steep terrains of Mount Makalu to that of Mount Everest. Similarly, Cho Oyu (8,188m), climbed from Tibet, is a less demanding 8,000-meter peak that helps climbers experience high-altitude conditions with comparatively lower risks.

Best Time for Mount Everest Expedition

Climbing Mount Everest requires proper planning and research to increase the possibility of a successful attempt. Therefore, learning about the weather patterns and seasons is crucial. Inadequate planning decreases the chances of success and risks the lives of mountaineers and the expedition team. 

Spring is the ideal season to climb Mount Everest in 2025 and 2026. The spring months from April to May offer stable weather conditions. At higher altitudes, the winds decrease and the temperatures rise, making the conditions relatively moderate. You will also find that the snow is more stable. This significantly reduces the risk of avalanches and increases your chances of a successful attempt. Days are longer in spring, with better visibility for climbing. However, since more than 70% of summit attempts happen in spring, chances are that traffic congestion is high, especially during the limited climbing window.

Autumn is the secondary climbing option. While you will find some attempts between late September and early November, unpredictable weather and shorter climbing windows are the major risks. Unlike spring, autumn nights are colder with possibility of early winter storms. However, you will find fewer attempts compared to spring. 

Likewise, it is best to avoid climbing Mount Everest during the monsoon season (June to August) and winter (December to February). During monsoon season, you will experience heavy snowfall with high chances of avalanches. Furthermore, the poor visibility and extreme weather conditions make climbing risky. 

In the winter season, the high altitude reaches sub-zero temperatures. The extreme cold and high winds with heavy snow accumulation significantly reduce the chances of a successful Mount Everest expedition.

Mount Everest Expedition | 61-Day Itinerary Itinerary
Day-to-DayExpand all

Your journey to Mount Everest's summit begins at Kathmandu’s Tribhuvan International Airport. Upon landing, you will find our representative, holding a placard, at the airport. Next, you will navigate through the congested Kathmandu roads as you make your way to your hotel. Take this time to familiarize yourself with the views of the country’s capital. 

After taking some time to rest and unwind, you can explore the different parts of the city. If you like a lively environment, you can head to the tourist hub of Thamel and enjoy some live music in one of the bustling bars. As for those who choose to explore the culture and heritage of the ancient city of Kathmandu, you can get a rickshaw and explore the cultural hub of Kathmandu Durbar Square, also locally known as Basantapur.

On the second day, you will meet with your expedition team and guide. They will provide you with last-minute preparation tips, give you details about the climb, build a strategy considering the weather and other crucial conditions in the Everest region, and ensure you have all the essential gear and equipment for the climb. You will also receive an emergency briefing stating what to do and what to avoid if such circumstances arise. 

The briefing will help you clear any doubts and head to Everest with a clear plan. Since you are meeting your expedition team and guide for the first time, take this opportunity to get to get to know them better, as the success of your attempt will highly depend on them.

Today, you will leave early for the domestic terminal in the Tribhuvan International Airport for the Kathmandu-Lukla flight. The weather conditions in the Himalayas can be extreme, therefore, you will only find a short transfer window during the early hours of the day. You will find flights to Lukla from Kathmandu between 6 am and 11 am. During the peak season, you may need to spend an extra day driving to Ramechap for the Lukla flight. The flights to Lukla operate via twin-otter airplanes. So, be ready for a short yet adventurous flight to the gateway to Everest. 

During the 35-minute flight, you get a surreal view of the mountains and amazing Himalayan landscapes. After reaching Lukla, you will begin your trek following the EBC trails. Your first stop is Phakding. To get to Phakding, you will take on a 3 to 4-hour hike through the rugged Himalayan terrains, embracing the views along the way.

Your next destination is Namche Bazaar, the commercial hub of the Khumbu region. You will trek 5 to 6 hours along the yak pasture and the Sagarmatha National Park to the famed Namche Bazaar. Along the way, you will pass through villages like Totok, Benkar, and Monjo. After passing the checkpoint at Monjo, you will take on an ascent to a higher altitude. On the way, find the stunning Thamserku (6608 meters) and Kongede Ri (6187 meters) and cross the iconic Hillary Suspension Bridge. As you head to Namche Bazaar, you will also get the first distant view of the mighty Mount Everest from the Everest Viewpoint. 

After reaching Namche Bazaar, you will settle in your tea house/lodge. Being the only commercial hub of the Everest region, you have diverse culinary options in cozy cafes and luxurious hotels amid the beautiful nature in this Sherpa town.

While trekking in the Himalayas, you must get sufficient rest and stop at acclimatization points to help your body cope with the thinning air. The Everest expedition is strategically planned with proper acclimatization stops to ensure that all climbers get sufficient rest and minimize the risks of altitude-related ailments. Our first acclimatization stop is at Namche Bazaar.

During the rest day, you can immerse yourself in the local customs and traditions of this Sherpa town. Alternatively, you can go on a short hike to the Everest View Hotel to capture the panoramic vistas of the Himalayas and the surrounding landscape. The hotel is also a vantage point for a good view of Mount Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Pumori, Ama Dablam, and other surrounding peaks. 

A detour to Khumjung Village is another popular activity in Namche. Famous for the yeti scalp monastery, many visitors visit this quaint village to get a glimpse of the scalp of the mythical yeti.

The trails today will take you into the more rugged, high-altitude terrain of the Khumbu region. Your journey begins with a gradual descent through lush rhododendron forests towards Imja Khola. After reaching Imja Khola, you will cross a suspension bridge adorned with prayer flags to reach the ancient village of Pangboche. Take some time to take in the spiritual aura at the famous Pangboche Monastery. 

You will continue your hike, climbing toward the Shomare and Orsho villages and through the alpine meadows and pasturelands to Dingboche. In Dingboche, you will head to your teahouse/lodge to unwind and get some rest. Here, you will enjoy scenic views of Himalayan peaks, including Ama Dablam, Island Peak, and Lhotse.

The Dingboche acclimatization stop is the second rest stop. As the altitude increases, you need to allow your body to cope with the high-altitude atmosphere and reduce the risks of altitude-related ailments. 

In Dingboche, you have a few hiking and exploration opportunities. The 4 to 5-hour Nangksar Pshang Peak round-trip journey is a good way to introduce your body to high-altitude conditions at a gradual pace. The hike takes you to sacred Buddhist sites, providing incredible views of Mount Makalu. Alternatively, you can climb Nagarjuna Hill to capture the Ama Dablam, Everest, and Lhotse panorama. You can also explore Dingboche’s terraced farms. The farmlands here are unique as irrigation in this region is done using glacial meltwater. 

Dingboche is also known as the “Summer Valley”. Here, you will find the stone-walled fields as you visit local bakeries of the region.

The trek from Dingboche to Lobuche is challenging as you enter the rugged Himalayan terrain. Your trek begins with a gradual climb along the Khumbu Glacier moraine. From here, you can get a beautiful view of the towering Himalayas. As you continue your journey, you will reach the Thukla Pass, where you can find memorials honoring climbers and Sherpas who lost their lives on Everest. 

After crossing the Thukla Pass, you will find more barren trails surrounded by majestic views of the Himalayas. As you reach Lobuche, you are met with a beautiful scenery of ice and glacial moraine stretched to a great distance.

You head to the Everest Base Camp from Lobuche through a more strenuous path. The first leg of the day’s trek takes you to Gorakshep across the rugged Himalayan moraine alongside the Khumbu Glacier. After reaching Gorakshep, you head to the Everest Base Camp, relishing the surreal views of the ice falls and glaciers. As the final stretch approaches, you will take on gradual ascents over rocky terrain to reach the day’s destination. 

In  EBC, you will get some rest and prepare for the big ascent to the world’s tallest peak. Here, you will spend time making last-minute preparations. Your guide and the Sherpa support staff will assist you in this process.

After all preparations in EBC are over and you have completed your acclimatization, the quest to the Everest summit begins. Over the next few weeks, you will follow a structured climb that involves moving between camps before making the final push to the Everest summit. This is a crucial period for you and your expedition team as it helps boost your morale and physical endurance. During this period, you will face several scenarios, including harsh weather, extreme conditions, and technical challenges. 

Climbing Rotation for Acclimatization 

Similar to previous days, you will need to acclimatize to adapt to the increasing elevations. While climbing Mount Everest, you will follow the climb high and sleep low strategy. This means that each day, you will ascend to a higher camp and return to a lower altitude to allow your body to adjust. During this period, you will be rotating mainly between four camps of Mount Everest. 

Peak Climbing Before the Summit Push

As a part of the acclimatization period, you can climb Island Peak (6,476 meters) and Lobuche Peak (6,119 meters). These peaks provide essential exposure to mountaineers and help you refine your crampon and ice axe techniques. To climb these peaks, you will descend from the camps in Everest to a lower altitude in Dingboche or Lobuche and head out to these peaks. 

Summit Push

The push to the Everest summit happens at night. To take advantage of the stable morning weather, the expedition team prepared for the final push from around 10 p.m. to midnight. The route passes through several landmarks, such as the Balcony (8400 meters), the South Summit (8,750 meters), and the Hilary Step. 

After days of gruesome effort, you will finally reach the top of the world. Conquering Mount Everest at 8,848 meters is a triumphant moment. You are filled with deep satisfaction as well as exhaustion. 

Descend to Base Camp

After spending 15 to 30 minutes on the summit of Mount Everest, you prepare for the return. You must be careful as you climb down to a lower altitude as fatigue and high altitude can make you vulnerable. 

Though the body is weak, your heart is full of pride. You can reflect on this magnificent journey and the immense challenges you have overcome over the past weeks.

After a night of celebration and much-needed rest, it’s time to get back to work. Over the past few weeks, you have produced waste. You, alongside your expedition team, will get together and dispose of your waste, ensuring you leave no traces of your expedition behind. 

Now, you will trek to Gorakshep. If you want to cut your journey short, you can book a helicopter return flight, which will take you to Kathmandu. Or you can continue your trek to Pheriche.

The remainder of your trek is comfortable as you will mostly descend to a lower altitude. Today, you will pass through Imja Khola, Shomare, and Pangboche. The terrain gradually transitions from rocky landscapes to lush rhododendrons and pine forests. You will have Ama Dablam, Everest, and Lhotse walking by your side throughout your journey to Tengboche. In Tengboche, you can visit the iconic Tengboche Monastery and witness the evening prayers.

Your journey today takes you to the commercial hub of Khumbu, where you will retrace your path through familiar trails. The trek will take you through lush forests and steep descents toward the Hilary Suspension Bridge. From here, you will cross the Dudh Koshi River and head to Monjo before eventually reaching Namche Bazaar.

Today is the final day of your two-month-long Everest expedition. Early in the morning, you will journey through lush pine and fir forests. Enjoy the pleasant walk as you pass through the charming Sherpa settlements along the way.

Spend the final night in the Everest region with your team and staff. Tips are customary in Nepal. Trekkers are encouraged to tip the support team to show gratitude for their hard work.

Rest well tonight, as an early departure awaits you the next morning.

You will take a short but thrilling flight to Kathmandu. Enjoy the aerial view of the Himalayas on the flight. In the evening, you will meet with your expedition team for a final time to celebrate your accomplishment over dinner.

This is your final day in Kathmandu. You can either explore the city at your own pace or take the day to relax. If you are leaving the country today, our representative will assist you in transferring to the airport.

Essential Information

How Hard Is It to Climb Mount Everest?

Mount Everest is the highest point on Earth. Located at 8848 meters from sea level, the quest to the summit is a tough endeavor. You will require months, if not years, of training to take on this extremely high-altitude adventure. Before the summit expedition, you should undergo gruesome training and preparation to be physically and mentally fit for the ascent. As Sir Edmund Hillary stated, “It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.” Alongside physical toughness, you should be mentally prepared to take on all the challenges, including sudden changes in weather, the harsh environment of the mountain, unfavorable climbing conditions, and several obstacles. 

Also, the extreme altitude of the “death zone” above 8000 meters has dangerously low oxygen levels. To prepare for the summit push beyond this zone, you should conduct strenuous rotation climbs. This helps you acclimatize to the conditions of Everest. Additionally, every step can be exhausting at high elevations with ever-present risks of frostbite, avalanches, and altitude-related sickness. 

However, despite the extreme altitude, you will find that the Mount Everest expedition is still possible with intensive training. Additionally, your gear and equipment, like supplemental oxygen, crampons, and ice axes, support you throughout the climb. Also, you will have your support staff and guides who will help navigate the way through fixed ropes and ladders for easy access over crevasses, steep ice walls, and exposed ridges.

Mount Everest Expedition | 61-Day Itinerary FAQs

Typically, it takes around 60 to 70 days to climb Mount Everest. This includes trekking to EBC, acclimatization, and summit attempts.

There are designated toilets at the base camp. At higher camps, you will use waste bags or designated crevasses.

There is a 50 to 60 percent success rate.

You will experience sub-zero conditions. The temperatures can drop to -40°C (-40°F) or lower. Additionally, the winds are harsh at the summit, often reaching 160-200 km/h (100-125 mph) or more.

If you experience symptoms related to altitude sickness, inform your guide immediately. In most cases, this can be managed with Diamox and rest. However, in severe cases, you will need to descend and possibly get an emergency helicopter evacuation.

The most significant dangers include avalanches, falls, crevasse crossings, altitude sickness, frostbite, exhaustion, and sudden weather changes.

You will get a variety of food, including carbohydrate-rich food like pasta, rice, potatoes, lentils, and dehydrated meals. Snacks like energy bars, chocolates, and dried fruits are also available for a quick boost of energy.

Your Sherpa support staff prepares your food while camping. They can cook for you up to Camp 3. After Camp 4, you will rely on dried fruits, packaged food, and energy bars.

No, rescue helicopters cannot reach the summit of Mount Everest due to thin air, low lift capacity, and extreme weather conditions. The highest practical rescue is usually around Camp 2 (6,400m / 21,000ft), with rare exceptions under ideal conditions.

A standard Mount Everest expedition typically requires 1 guide and 2 to 3 Sherpa support staff. However, based on your budget, you can hire additional support staff. A top-tier luxury expedition may include 2 guides and 4 to 6 Sherpas per climber. You may also include personal chefs, medical staff, and porters for added comfort.

If you run out of oxygen, you may face symptoms of hypoxia, which include confusion, loss of coordination, unconsciousness, and even death. However, climbers guides and Sherpa support staff usually carry extra backup cylinders. In case no oxygen is available, the only option is to descend immediately.

Recovering the body from Everest is extremely difficult, costly, and dangerous. If a climber dies at a lower altitude, a team of Sherpa and rescuers can attempt to retrieve the body. However, above 7000 meters, it is nearly impossible to recover the body.

You can continue the expedition if a member of your expedition team dies, depending on the circumstances, expedition rules, and personal choice. However, many climbers opt to descend, especially if morale, team strength, or safety is compromised.

If a climber falls into a crevasse, the response depends on the depth and severity of the fall. If they are roped in, teammates and Sherpas can attempt an immediate rescue.
