Everest Routes

South Col Route

The South Col Route, also known as the Southeast Ridge, is the most popular and widely used path to reach the summit of Mount Everest. Starting from the Nepal side, climbers ascend through the treacherous Khumbu Icefall, known for its towering ice seracs and crevasses.

North Col Route

Starting from the Tibetan side, this Basecamp Everest Climb Route presents a different set of challenges. Climbers begin at the Rongbuk Glacier, traversing the rocky terrain of the North Col. They then proceed through the infamous Yellow Band and negotiate the Second Step, a near-vertical rock face. The final stretch includes the Third Step, the Summit Pyramid, and finally reaching the summit of Mount Everest.

West Ridge Route

Considered one of the toughest Everest Climbing Routes, the West Ridge Route tests climbers' skills and endurance to the extreme. Starting from the Tibetan side, climbers face steep and icy slopes, navigating through the treacherous Khumbu Icefall and the challenging Lhotse Face. The route then follows the seldom-used West Ridge, characterized by exposed ridges and knife-edge traverses, culminating in an awe-inspiring climb to the summit.

East Face Route

Often regarded as one of the most difficult and daring Routes up Mt Everest, the East Face presents a formidable challenge to even the most seasoned climbers. Starting from the Tibet side, climbers face steep and technical terrain, including icefalls, seracs, and rockfall hazards. The route demands exceptional technical skills, a high level of fitness, and a fearless determination to conquer the world's highest peak.

Best Time to Climb

The Best Time for Basecamp Everest Climb is during the pre and post-monsoon seasons. The months of April to May and September to October offer the most favourable weather conditions, with stable temperatures and minimal precipitation. These windows provide climbers with a higher chance of success and safer climbing conditions.

Difficulty Level

Climbing Mount Everest is an extraordinary feat that demands physical and mental fortitude. The Basecamp Everest climb is considered extremely challenging due to the high altitude, unpredictable weather, and technical terrain. Climbers must be prepared to endure harsh conditions, face steep ascents, and overcome obstacles like the treacherous Khumbu Icefall and the daunting Hillary Step.

Training

Proper training is essential for anyone considering a Basecamp Everest Climb. Climbers must focus on building cardiovascular endurance, strength, and stamina. Training should include aerobic exercises, such as running and hiking, as well as weightlifting and core strengthening exercises. Acclimatization training is also crucial to adapt to high altitudes and reduce the risk of altitude sickness.

Costs and Permits

Embarking on a Basecamp Everest climb is a significant financial investment. Costs can range from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand dollars, depending on the expedition package chosen. These expenses cover permits, guide services, accommodation, food, equipment, and logistics. Additionally, climbers must obtain permits from the Nepalese government and adhere to the regulations set by the local authorities.
