Experience Everest Viewpoint

Getting There

  • Walking

    Starting from the main square in Namche Bazaar, head towards the Namche Monastery, which is located on the hill just above the square. Follow the signs that say 'Everest Viewpoint' and continue uphill along the main trail. The path is well-marked and you will see other hikers making their way up. After about 30 minutes of hiking, you will reach a viewpoint where you can see stunning views of the Everest range. Be sure to take your time, enjoy the scenery, and take breaks if needed, as the altitude can be challenging.

  • Walking

    If you prefer a more leisurely route, you can also take a slightly longer path that branches off to the right shortly after leaving the main square. This path winds through beautiful pine forests and offers a more secluded experience. Follow the path until you reach a fork; take the left path that leads uphill. After approximately 40 minutes, you will arrive at the Everest Viewpoint. This route is beautiful and provides a different perspective of the surrounding landscape.
