8 Days Everest Trek Difficulty and Physical Fitness
The short and easy trek to the Everest viewpoint is a family-friendly trip that does not go too high, the maximum altitude of the trek is 3800 meters. We have organized this trek even for the groups traveling with kids aged 5 years and above. They enjoyed the hike thoroughly. But, the second day’s hike from Phakding to Namche Bazaar is a bit long and challenging as the trails from Monjo to Namche are quite steep and get higher altitudes too.
For this part, some of our clients who felt it hard had hired a horse and rode all the way from Phakding to Namche Bazaar. Even though, it is a short and easy trek you are required to be in good shape to do this 8 days Everest trek.
With professional guidance from our crew, anyone with a reasonably fit can go on this trek. Previous trekking or hiking experience is not required.
Best Season for 8 Days Everest Hiking Tour
Autumn (last September to November) and Spring (mid-March to mid-May) are the best seasons to go on the Everest trek. The weather will be warm and clear with spectacular views. If you want to avoid the rush time and crowds then winter (December to February) will be an ideal time to go on this trek. However, the cold weather makes trekking at this time of the season difficult for many people.
If you love to see different kinds of flowers, the summer season will be perfect for you to trek in this region to explore the rare flora. Where monsoon (late May to mid-September) makes everything unclear and slippery and a flight to Lukla is always uncertain during this time of year.
