Equipment Checklist

The main emphasis while trekking is on keeping warm and dry while still being lightweight. You should bring a rucksack or backpack for the gear required during the day. Your pack should contain items such as warm clothes, a jacket, a camera, water bottles, a personal first aid kit, and snacks. The weight limit is 5kg. A porter will carry the rest of your personal equipment packed in a duffel or kit bag. The weight limit for your duffel bag is 15 kg however it is different in the case of peak climbing and expedition.

A Note on Packing 

For your international flights, we recommend that you pack all your equipment in your two duffle bags or suitcase. Do not simply pack your backpack (since the straps can be damaged by the baggage handling machines). It is important to lock these bags for their trip. Depending on the airport, you may be able to put your travel locks on after TSA has searched the bags. If not, Lock the bags with Zip Ties. If the TSA cuts off the zip-tie to search your bag, they will replace it. You will still need the travel locks to lock your bags in the hotel and during the trek. Generally, you will take one duffel on the trek , and leave one in the hotel in Kathmandu with your belongings for your time in the city. Your trek in duffel will only be accessible in the evenings (with items such as changes of clothing, sleeping bag), and your day pack will hold vitals such as water, layering, blister kit, and camera.

Conclusion:

As the weather condition is unpredictable in the Himalayan region, you need to be prepared at all times. A day can start sunny with clear skies and later become cold and windy at the high altitudes.

Sometimes, it can rain and snow during the trekking period.  You need to remember that for a successful trekking journey, your physical comfort must be the first priority.

 

Note:

Please note that these items listed above will vary according to the season, trek duration. Please remember that your luggage will be carried by the porter, but you need to carry a daypack on your own. We also suggest you pack only necessary items to keep the weight of your equipment to a minimum.

In general, the trek is mostly moderate and slightly difficult at some places. Trekking to Namche Bazaar from Lukla itself is a challenging walk as the trail is very steep and sloppy. The farthest point on the trek is Tengboche at 3,870m (12,697ft.). You will take an acclimatization hike up to Everest View Hotel which is situated at 3,962m (13,000ft.) while you are in Namche Bazaar. This is in fact, the highest point on the trek. If you are physically fit and mentally strong with a strong determination, then this trek is not as difficult as one can reckon. The only factor that attributes to the difficulty of this trek is the altitude and the long walking hours on uneven terrains for several days.

The most popular months for trekking in the Everest region are March, April, May, October and November, as these months are when the conditions are at their best. The spring and the autumn tend to offer reasonable temperatures, clear skies, little-to-no rain, and less chance of problematic snowfall.
