Everest View Trek is a special package, carefully designed to meet the expectations of those travel enthusiasts who don’t have time or are not fit enough to make it to the Everest Base Camp. During this trip, you will trek up to Namche (acclimatization altitude), from where you will see the gleaming Everest peak with other countless anonymous ranges. This view is just incredible. But, if you have both time and spirit, then skip the Everest View Trek and go for Everest Base Camp Trek. The views grow more beautiful as you gain altitude.
With its scenic natural beauty, smiling hospitable people and rich cultural heritage, Mt. Everest, along with entire Everest region, is a much-admired trekking destination. In fact, Everest is one of the few places on Earth, where the whole humanity wants to step in, at least for a few minutes. It is the center of global attraction. While this is true, we can’t deny the fact that this region is also blessed with the presence of unique flora and fauna, which can make your expedition more thrilling.
Going all the way to the base camp of Mt. Everest or Everest Base Camp (EBC) might not be something that everybody can do in their free time as they might not have the required number of days in their holidays to reach there and return back in time. Also, an entire trek to Everest Base Camp is a bit challenging in itself. So, for the people who don’t want to go for a trek all the way up to 5,340 meters above sea level and explore the EBC, they can simply choose a much simpler trek. And that trek is our Everest View Trek.
If you take a look at our itinerary, you will see that it only takes about 8 days to finish the entire trek. What’s more is that you will even be able to watch the awe-inspiring views of Mt. Everest with plenty of time at your disposal by hiking to Everest View Hotel from Namche Bazaar.

Generally, monsoon is considered to be the worst season to kick off on any trek; so is the case here. It is because the trail becomes slippery and climbing up the steep terrain becomes challenging due to rainwater. Also, in Nepal, summer blends with the monsoon, so it is better to ignore summer as well.
Winter, on the other hand, is frosty in Everest. The temperature might plummet to -20oC, which is, apparently freezing. But still, Everest view Trek can be attempted in Winter because you are not climbing as high as Lobuche or Gorakshep. Your maximum elevation is 3440 m, so winter can be a time when you can go for trekking in Everest.
However, the best season to go for Everest View Trek is during Autumn and Spring, in terms of temperature and trail. But, among them, spring is the best season. During Spring, rhododendron blooms, and the surrounding will be filled by colors and the pleasant smell of the flowers.
To conclude, go for Everest view Trek on Spring.

At first, it was very difficult for me to choose a genuine company, because there are a lot of companies outside in the internet, each of them boasting themselves as the best. Among them, I shortlisted and communicated to few companies. While doing so, the response that I got from the Holy Mountain Treks was pretty clear, and they seemed to know more about Everest. So, I went on my trip with this company. Now, I feel very lucky to choose Holy Mountain Treks for guiding my trip to Everest View Trek. My guide Ram Chandra was very helpful, and he knew a lot about the place. He took me to the Everest View Point at Namche and monasteries that are around the Namche. I didn’t have time, so I returned from Namche. But, next time, I promise to go up to Everest Base Camp. Thank you, Ram Chandra, for everything. Also, many many thanks to Holy Mountain Treks. You all had been amazingly helpful.
