Join #TeamHDA for this once in a lifetime trek to the Mount Everest Base Camp
Nepal is a country in a league of its own with breathtakingly beautiful scenery, a fascinating culture and friendly people. Meeting the villagers whilst trekking through this landlocked gem of a nation is one of its greatest pleasures.
Event information:
The route will take you via the Sherpa capital of Namche Bazaar through beautiful valleys, dense forests and across glacial rivers, enjoying tantalising glimpses of the mighty Everest before you reach the destination - Base Camp.
There is also time built in to trek to the summit of Kalapatar, the famous Everest viewpoint, and wonder at views of the highest mountain on the planet at sunrise.
You will also have time to explore the colourful and frenetic capital of Kathmandu.
