Acclimatisation
The team will be able to acclimatise to the culture, climate and altitude of Nepal by completing short treks to NunThala, Kharikhola and Namche Bazaar either side of the community project.

Project
The project phase is likely to be community-based and could involve tasks such as tree planting, digging irrigation ditches, renovating playgrounds or painting schools in the Kharikhola area. The project phase will offer a wonderful opportunity to mix with the extremely friendly local people.   

Main trekking phase
The trek to Everest base camp climbs from the village of Namche Bazaar and heads east to Lobouche at just under 5000m. After a night at Gorak Shep, the highest lodge in the world, you will then travel up a glacier to Everest Base Camp; here you will have the once in a lifetime experience of watching the sun rise behind Everest from the summit of Kala Patar.

Rest and relaxation in Nepal
There are many fascinating sites in Kathmandu to visit such as Durbar Square or the Monkey Temple and of course there is lots of shopping in the tourist area of Thamel.

This is a sample itinerary that may be subject to some change depending on local conditions, contact us for more information.
