Jiri Everest base camp trek is a combinational trek that takes you to two of the fascinating trekking destinations of Nepal. This Everest region trek is popular for its natural and cultural sightseeing tour. This trekking is regarded as the most traditional trekking trail in the Everest region. This trekking route is popular from very ancient times and carries a historic significance. This is the same route that was used by the early expedition teams to climb Everest from Nepal part. Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa, were the first successful climbers of Mount Everest and they went through this trail to climb Mount Everest. After the regular flights to Lukla from Kathmandu this route is less used. Some trekkers still want to trek rather than fly to Lukla so this is a classic route for those.
Everest base camp trek offers you a delightful mighty Himalayas panorama, lush green forest, beautiful natural landscape, Sherpa cultural villages, snowcapped surroundings, and many more beautiful sightseeing places and beautiful surrounding.
This trekking usually starts from Jiri after six hours of drive from Kathmandu with a beautiful view on the way. As you arrive in Jiri you go through the places of Shivalaya, Bhandar, Set, Junbesi, Nuntala, Bupsa, and Ghat. As you come to Ghat, then from here we follow the current popular route from Lukla. While trekking we visit extremely delightful Sherpa villages and communities and baize in their culture, where you'll meet friendly people and reflect the colors, sights, and sounds of village life as well as the spirituality of Tibetan Buddhism so prevalent in the Himalayas. You can also experience famous monasteries and gumba through this trekking region. This trekking can enhance your natural desire and help you gain memories of a lifetime experience.
Tenzing-Hillary Airport or Lukla airport is one of the most thrilling airport of the world. Many travelers considered this airport as nerve-wracking experiences on landing time. The runway is only 527 meters (1,729 feet) long. So, only Helicopters, Dornier and Twin Otters planes can land here.
This airport is visual flight rules (VFR) without mordern rader system. Sudden changes in cloud cover, wind, and visibility can make flying difficult and dangerious for landing. Flights are oftern cancalled or delayed here due to such reasons. Sometime travelers need to wait for more than a day for flying to Lukla. Despite the risks, thousands of trekkers land safely at Lukla each year. It’s an adventure in itself and often the first real thrill of the Everest Base Camp journey.
If you don't want to land here and don't want helicopter flight too, Jiri route is perfect for you. Avoiding Lukla flight and trekking through old route not only saves you from nerve-warcking feeling, you will spend more days in Himalaya by walking.
