Overview

Ama Dablam Base Camp Trek, one of the highly acclaimed treks in the Everest region offers a chance for you to get closer to the world’s highest mountains including Everest (8848.86m), Ama Dablam (6812m), Lhotse (8516m), and Nuptse (7861m). Having a literal meaning of mother’s necklace, Ama Dablam is considered one of the most beautiful and scenic peaks in the whole world. Trekking through the Sherpa villages, Buddhist monasteries, and rhododendron-filled forest while looking at the majestic views of Mount Everest and other peaks, this trek allows enjoying 360-degree panoramic views of Himalayan giants once you reach the base camp of Mt. Ama Dablam (4500m). Trek to this base camp not only provides spectacular views but also gives a chance for you to explore the traditional daily lifestyle of the Sherpa community, their religious practice, festivals, and way of life in Khumbu valley. Less crowded compared to Everest Base Camp Trek, this trek can be your opportunity to find spiritual peace and tranquility in the Himalayas.
