Everest Region
The Everest region trek, which has the second-most tourists after the Annapurna region trek, boasts the most stunning and dramatic scenery in all of Nepal. The Sagarmatha National Park protects the region, which is home to the Yeti, highland Sherpas, and Mt. Everest (8848m), the highest mountain in the world. Red pandas, snow leopards, musk deer, Himalayan tahr, marten, and pika (Himalayan mouse) are just a few of the animals that call the national park home. There are also more than 115 different species of birds, as well as highland plants like juniper, silver fir, hemlock, pine, rhododendron, and alpine plants.
Outstanding natural beauty persuaded UNESCO to include this region in the World Natural Heritage Site list in 1979 AD. Meanwhile, the Sherpas who live in this area have popularized it via their culture and traditions, making it a once-in-a-lifetime destination.
From Kathmandu, an exhilarating 35-minute flight will get you to the Lukla airfield, where your trek to Mount Everest begins. The Sherpa ethnic group, who practice Himalayan Buddhism, has colonized a sizable portion of the region. Gokyo, Khumbu, and Imja valleys are excellent examples of the rich monastic culture and traditions practiced by highland residents. The monasteries are the center of Sherpa culture, and they are located in places like Thame, Khumjung, Junbesi, Namche, Tyangboche, and Pangboche. The Sherpa celebrate Dumje, Mani Rimdhu, and Lhosar as their three main holidays.
