How to plan Everest Base Camp trek



How to plan Everest base camp trek
To reach the Everest base camp is dream for many travelers and to see the mount everest and other nearby peak from close distance is such a wonderful experience. Mount Everest is the tallest mountain in the world and also known as roof of the world. The best possibility for not climbers is to see from Nepalese side of course. We have to trek through the wonderful Sherpa land to reach the mount Everest base camp .
When to go
The best time to trek Everest base camp is in autumn season i.e. from sep to November and mar to may as well . we should avoid monsoon June/July/august to avoid the possible rain, cloud and landslides. For base camp we should also have to consider the chilly winter with cold breeze, icy air/water etc.
The best time to go
The best time to go to Everest base camp trek is in march/April/may and sep/October/Never when the the daytime temperature used to be like 15/200 c  and night time temperature also doesn’t goes so far then freezing level.
Avoid winter time
For the safety of the trekkers we would like to suggest you to avoid winter time because its really chilly at base camp and Gorakshep where you have to spend overnight. And the trail used to be full of snow or icy. To avoid the possible danger we can see the mount Everest from lower altitude settlement like Tengboche , Namche also worthy for the winter time.
Don’t trek in monsoon time June/July  
For the safety of the trekkers we would like you to suggest not to trek in monsoon time to avoid possible rain, landslide, bugs & insects etc. Though most of the time mountain is surrounded by cloud.
Permits required
For foreigners except Nepalese you need to have National park permit and TIMS card.  If you trekking with agency, the agency will deal with all your permit and entrance permits. If you trekking individuals as solo trekker you need to do all by yourself. For solo trekkers to get the national park permit you either you have to visit tourism board office or can get at National park gate in Jorsalle at the entrance of national park. For Tims card either you have to visit TAAN (trekking agencies association of Nepal) office in Thamel or you can buy at TIMS check post at the trail.
