The general weather in the mountainous region is always cold and breezy. However, Everest view trek is a rather lower altitude trek that takes you up to 3000 m above the sea level. This means, the weather is pretty stable throughout the year. Only in the peak winter you can see some snowfall otherwise Districk can be done any time of the year.
Everest view trek in Summer
The month of June and July is the warmest as well as the wettest month of the year. While other regions of Nepal receive about a hundred centimetre of rain each monsoon the amount of rainfall in lower Everest region is pretty low. Everest view trekking summer is definitely possible, but the mountains might be blocked due to the thick layer of fog. It might be a great time to explore the biodiversity of Everest but not the mountains.
Everest view trek In Autumn
October is the peak month for trekking in Everest and the entire region is crowded. You might want to to avoid the crowd by trekking in early September or late November. Since this is a festive month celebrating, Dashian and Tihar, you might get to enjoy the Nepalese celebrations. Also the mountain shine at their best in autumn and the picture appears perfect

Best Season For Everest View Trek
When it comes to Everest view trek, every season is the best. While Autumn is the most popular time of the month, it’s also a crowded one. We do recommend trekking in autumn if you want to capture beautiful pictures of the Himalayas. However, you can plan the trek any time of the year and complete it without much disturbances. Going for a slightly off season of monsoon or winter even gets some great discounts in the flight and hotel price.
Permit And Checkpoint Of Everest View Trek

If you are travelling independently without any travelling agency you might be able to complete the trick at a cheaper price Highway having a guide and portal by yourself do cost you a large amount. Also, due to language barrier it will be difficult to book your hotels and restaurant. Since Everest View Trek involves two way ticket to Lukla, it’s quite expensive. If you want a rather cheap trek, maybe you can look at Langtang Valley Trek.

Everest View Trek Difficulty And Fitness
This is a comfortable and easy trek in the Himalayas. You need to trek for 4 to 5 hours, for about four days only. While this trek does not need any previous experience or high altitude trek training ,some exercises and practises before the trek will obviously be helpful. You also don’t need any experience of using mountain gears or special skills.
You might choose keep your body strong with some short treks and cardio exercises in the gym, few weeks before the trek. However, even if you have zero preparations, you can easily walk to to Namche and get back. Also, if you have any problem during that trek you will always be accompanied by your expert guide who can help you. Also, since we’re trekking in a rather lower altitude the chances of altitude sickness is zero. So, you got nothing to worry about. Just keep yourself hydrated and that’s about it.

Reviews
Couldn’t recommend Himalayan Masters more for anyone looking for a trekking trip in Nepal
As a first-timer to Nepal and any trekking trips, Sandip was professional from our first conversation with him – he was able to help us with trail selection (based on our experience and preferences); trip preparation (such as equipment to purchase and bring). Items that are included/excluded as part of the package are also clearly written on the website (and fully delivered, if not more). What we really liked was how flexible trip planning was and how responsive Sandip was in answering our queries and helping us prepare for the trip.
As we arrive in Nepal – all accommodation, pick-ups and other transportation are well-arranged. The package was designed so that Himalayan masters also provide some necessary mountaineering gear – so all in all It was a truly hassle-free experience and we could focus on enjoying the trek and views Everest has to offer. All concerns we had with regard to adapting to the food / high altitude / cold weather / physical fitness are being well taken care of. The team is very experienced in high-altitude trekking and we could trust them with any questions we had. Sandip is also really just one message away most of the time so any questions were being addressed promptly. Due to weather conditions, or the flight from Lukla back to the city was cancelled – Sandip was very professional throughout and helped us arrange alternatives so that we could catch our international flight.
Everything aside, we set off to Nepal knowing that we’d enjoy the mountains, but the team at Himalayan Master just made you fall in love with it more. Sandip, our porter Bage is both genuine and really passionate about the mountains. They shared so many things about nature, culture and their experiences on the treks which made the trip so much more interesting. The way they talked about the peaks and expeditions they’ve had still stuck with me. You will on one hand be amazed at how well-versed they are with the Everest region and its everchanging conditions; and on the other hand, just great people to be around and spend time with.
Will definitely go back someday for more trails and would hope to trek with Himalayan Master again!

A review of our trip to the Everest view hotel with our guide Pasang. Me and my mom really enjoyed our time with him. He was very flexible and kind. He was able to change our schedule to our liking and capabilities. He was a knowledgeable guide and kept us informed and safe throughout our trek. He was a good leader and worked well coordinating our porter too. He even carried our stuff towards the end when the days got long and our legs were tired.

My favourite part of his guide was that he was relatable and he was down to earth. I would really recommend him for other tours. He is a really good addition to Himalayan masters
FAQs
Do I need a guide for Everest View Trek?
Yes, either it’s a month-long trek to the difficult landscape or a rather easy trek as Everest view , it’s always a great idea to hire a guide. If you are travelling in a peak season then you might find other travellers along the way to assist you. But in the off-season ,there’s always a chance to get lost, especially in winter when the trial is covered in snow. The guide will not only show you the path but also help you with hotels booking, listing out places to visit and things to do, and interacting with the local. The guide is specially handy in the difficult situations like altitude sickness or any other health issue during Everest View trekking.
