Itinerary
Day 1 Arrival at Kathmandu
Our personnel will get you from the airport upon your arrival in Kathmandu and transport you to the designated hotel. You have the rest of the day or freedom to tour the area until the pre-briefing, which is scheduled for the evening.
Day 2 Flight to Lukla and trek to Phakding
Our guide will collect you from the hotel early in the morning and drive you to the airport. You will take a flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, which should take 25 to 30 minutes. Following an amazing flight, we made a safe landing in Lukla, where we met up with the remaining porters. From there, we travelled to the Phakding, which is located above Chaurikharka Village, and descended through Chheplung Village to reach the Ghat (2,530m). The holy Buddhist Mantra carved on a boulder along the route that parallels the Dudhkoshi River portrays the Nigmapa Buddhist sect, which is associated with the Sherpas. Our ascent to Phakding (2,640m) will take two to three hours starting from Lukla. For the remainder of the day, you are free to stroll through and explore the village. Stay at Phakding for the night.
Day 3 Phakding to Namche Bazaar
We reached the first bridge across the Dudh Koshi River after exiting the tea establishment. After that, the route stays on the left bank of the river and passes by a beautiful waterfall before entering Tok Tok and eventually Benkar. The 6,608-meter-tall Mount Thamserku Peak is seen from this location. We walk up the trail till we arrive at Chhamuwa Village’s riverbank, where people are working the surrounding fields.
After there, the route climbs to Monjo Village (2,835 m). From there, it’s a short distance to the 1976-founded Sagarmatha National Park entrance (1,148 sq km), where we have to turn in our permits. After that, the path drops to the river’s edge and enters Jorsale (2,830m). It would be advisable to have lunch here before heading to Namche Bazaar, as this is the final teahouse before Namche.
After another forty-five minutes of walking through the forest, we will arrive at the intersection; the fifth bridge is a hanging bridge that is situated pretty high over the lake. Then, there are often stunning vistas of the mountains, including Mt. Everest, along the path that meanders through the National Park’s forest. It would take two hours to reach the Namche Bazaar street. Stay the night at Sherpa Heritage in Namche Bazaar and enjoy the pleasant ambience.
Day 4 Namche Bazaar (Acclimatization Day)
Before the voyage, today is the day to unwind and get adjusted. We begin our day’s excursion by climbing the hill to the Everest View Hotel, which is situated above Namche Bazaar, and the Syangboche Airport. With stunning peaks such as Mt. Everest, Nupste, Ama Dablam, Kangtegha, Thamserku, Kusum Khangru, Kwangde, and Khumbi Yu La, this is one of the best vantage points to see the breathtaking alpine environment.
After that, we take the descending road through the mountain forest to the magnificent Sherpa village of Khumjung Village, where we visit the Hillary School, an ancient monastery that holds a Yeti skull, and Khunde Hospital as tourist attractions before returning to Namche Bazaar through a yak farm. In addition to visiting Khumjung Village, you can learn more about the region by visiting the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee (SPCC), the climbing museum, and the Sagarmath National Park headquarters. If not, you can just unwind at your hotel and explore the area. Stay in the Lodge for the night.
Day 5 Namche Bazaar to Tengboche/Debuche
Following a good day of acclimatisation in Namche, we are travelling to Tengboche today (3,867m). We ascend to the top of the hamlet next to the museum early in the morning. After there, the trail rises to a pleasant altitude above the Dudhkoshi River and continues through a forest with sporadic glimpses of towering mountains, leading to Kenjoma. From there, the trail from Khumjung, Gokyo, and Tengboche begins as we make our way to Sansa via a rhododendron forest. From there, the trail drops down to the riverbank close to Phunki Thanga (3,250m). Since this is the final teahouse before Tengboche, it would be ideal to have lunch here before ascending to Tengboche. You can get to Tengboiche in roughly two hours. There are often vistas of the surrounding landscape and mountains from the walk through woodlands.
Situated close to the summit of the ridge, Tengboche has an elevation of 3,867 metres. Tengboche is well-known for both its breathtaking mountain vistas and its well-known monastery. Other mountains, such as Kwangde, Tawachee, Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse Ama Dablam, Kantega, Thamserku, and so on, are also very visible in addition to “Mt. Everest,” the highest mountain on Earth. If we reach Tengboche early, we can climb to Debuche and spend the night there. The traveller has complete control over everything. If they want to stay at Tengboche, they should spend the night here.
Day 6 Thyangboche to Dingboche
You are welcome to participate in the monastery’s prayer session prior to breakfast. After that, the trail descends through a gorgeous pine and rhododendron forest covered in moss to Deboche (3,820m), from whence it’s a pleasant stroll to the settlement of Milingo over the Imja Khola. The road climbs and leads to Panboche Village after crossing the bridge. You may get breathtaking views of Ama Dablam from this location. Walking from Pangboche to the Imja Valley’s Somare (4,010m) and Orsho (4,190m) takes about twenty-five minutes.
This is the best place to have lunch and take in the breathtaking views of the mountains. We take the lower way at Warsa and continue to the Dingbuche village. We cross the Lobuche River and ascend to the summit of the hill, where the brilliant Buddhist prayer flag of Dingboche village (4,410m) flirts with a pile of stones. We will check into the teahouse for the night after a short stroll.
Day 7 Dingboche (Rest and Acclimatisation Day)
The second rest day at Dingboche will aid in your acclimatisation before ascending high passes. We ascend to Nangkartshang Peak (5,615 m) this day after breakfast, which is close to Dingboche Village and provides stunning views of the Imja Valley and Dingboche Village. These views include Mount Lhoste (8,516 m), the fourth-highest mountain in the world, Mount Makalu (8,481 m), and many more. It will take you two hours of steady climbing to reach the Nangkartshang Peak. After taking a few pictures and taking in the surroundings, we are spending the night back in Dingboche. You can spend the remainder of the day lounging or exploring the neighbourhood while indulging in delectable cuisine.
Day 8 Dingboche to Chhukung
Walking from Dingboche to Chhukung takes about two to three hours, but it seems like a longer distance due to the altitude and oxygen deprivation. After this quick stroll, your body will become more accustomed to being at such a high altitude. Once you get at Chhukung, you can explore Island Peak Base Camp, hike to the summit of Chhukung Ri (5,546m) for a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains, or just relax at the tea house.
The mountains of Lhotse (8,501m), Makalu (8,463m), Nuptse (7879m), Imja Tse/Island peak (6,189m), Barunche (7,220m), Amadablam (6,814m), Thamserku (6,608m), Kawangde, etc. are all breathtakingly visible from Chhukung Ri. The following day, as we cross the Kongma L Pass, we will also be able to glimpse Imza Lake and Glacier. We have to be ready for our first high pass of the trip, the 5,535-meter Kongma La Pass, this evening. Make sure you have enough water in all of your bottles, get some energy bars, a headlamp, and warm clothes. Inns offer overnight stays.
Day 9 Chhukung to Lobuche via Khongma La Pass
The short, steep hike up to Kongma La (5,535m) requires an extremely early breakfast and a packed lunch. You’ll probably find this pass to be a little harder than the hike you did the previous days because of the steep elevation gain. We follow a narrow, rocky road that descends straight west out of Chukhung and contours around several hillsides, most of which are not very steep, to reach the Pokalden Base Camp. We will reach another Pokalden Base Camp and a glistening lake directly below the pass after a few more, steeper hills.
After another half hour of hiking, we are treated to breathtaking views and insanely designed routes that lead right up to the edge of the cliff. After several hours, we eventually reached our highest pass, the 5,546-meter-high Kongma La. The peak of the Pass, which takes three to four hours to reach, offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains, Glacier Lake, and glacier. It takes an additional three to four hours to transit the Khumbu Glacier and reach Lobuche after a steep descent. Stay the night here.
Day 10 Lobuche to Gorakshep to EBC and back to Gorakshep
As it stands today, the path ascends gradually but occasionally steeply in the vicinity of the Khumbu Glacier. We travel across loose, unstable rock for much of the trek, which can be windy and offers beautiful views of mountains such as Mt Pumori (7,165m), Lingtren (6,749m), Khumbutse (6,665m), Nuptse (7,861m), etc. The highest teahouse in the world, Gorak Shep (5,140m), is reached after three to four hours of arduous hiking uphill. We will travel to the Everest base camp to see the Khumbu Icefall after lunch and a brief period of rest to rejuvenate. We will explore the glacier ridge and occasionally walk on the glacier for two to three hours during our excursion.
Because hiking routes might be complicated at times, we recommend that you follow our knowledgeable guide because the track will vary year due to glacier movement. The trek to Everest Base Camp is extremely strenuous because of the thin air at such a high altitude. Before reaching base camp, it passes through streams, moraines, and stony dunes. In April, expedition personnel will be living at Everest base camp, where you may find yourself in a metropolis. It takes two to three hours to go back to the Gorak Shep tea house after a fantastic day here, where you can spend the night in a lodge.
Day 11 Gorakshep to Kala Patthar to Dzongla
As it stands today, the path ascends gradually but occasionally steeply in the vicinity of the Khumbu Glacier. We travel across loose, unstable rock for much of the trek, which can be windy and offers beautiful views of mountains such as Mt Pumori (7,165m), Lingtren (6,749m), Khumbutse (6,665m), Nuptse (7,861m), etc. The highest teahouse in the world, Gorak Shep (5,140m), is reached after three to four hours of arduous hiking uphill. We will travel to the Everest base camp to see the Khumbu Icefall after lunch and a brief period of rest to rejuvenate. We will explore the glacier ridge and occasionally walk on the glacier for two to three hours during our excursion.

It takes two to three hours to go back to the Gorak Shep tea house after a fantastic day here, where you can spend the night in a lodge.
Day 12 Dzongla to Thangnak via Chola pass
Though we have left Everest behind, the views are still amazing today. However, Mt. Cho Oyu (8,153m), the sixth-highest mountain in the world, is still visible. The route climbs to Cho La Pass, and the ascent is strenuous in and of itself, with a stroll across the glacier’s gently sloping surface on the pass and a hard scramble across granite rocks. You may feel exhausted despite the spectacular vistas of the glacier’s course ahead of you. For the initial part of the descent, there are well-defined routes that zigzag down the mountainside; nevertheless, they are slick in snowy, rocky conditions.
Then we descend the sharp, boulder-filled hills to the Gokyo Valley, which is dotted with massive glaciers and turquoise lakes. We eventually get to the summit on a small inclination. From this point on, the route descends steadily as you follow a little river valley to the base, where we spend the night at Tangnak (4,700m), a Sherpa settlement concealed beneath a massive rock.
Day 13 Thangnak to Gokyo Lake
Following a belated breakfast, the journey passes via the largest glacier in the Nepal Himalayas, the Nagjumpa Glacier, and then ascends a road that links to the main route to Gokyo. Here, stunning lakes can be observed, and Siberian ducks can be seen swimming over the placid, reflective surface.
The fantastic hike from Thangnak takes two to three hours to reach the town in front of the third lake (Dudh Pokharai) in Gokyo. For the rest of the day, you can unwind at the hotel or go exploring up at Gokyo Peak (5,350m). This trip provides a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the region and the breathtaking, secluded Himalayan landscape. Spend the night here.
Day 14 Acclimatization day at Gokyo
Enjoy a day of leisure and discovery in the breathtaking Gokyo Valley. We’ll begin the strenuous walk early in the morning and ascend for over two hours to reach Gokyo Ri (5,360m). This summit is not as high as Kalapatthar, but it is much harder to reach because of its steady elevation. From the top of Gokyo Ri, you might catch a stunning view of the mountain’s peak turning golden at dawn. The four highest mountains in the world, Mount Everest (8,848 metres), Cho-Oyu (8,153 metres), Lhotse (8,516 metres), and Makalu (8,463 metres), among many more, are visible from the summit.
You can also take in the amazing view of Gokyo Valley, which includes the turquoise-colored Gokyo Lake, a teahouse, the surrounding edge of the Ngozumpa Glacier, and massive snow-capped mountains, as well as Cho-Yu Base Camp, which is situated north of the Ngozumpa Glacier, one of the largest glaciers in the world. Savour the moment and the vista from the top of Gokyo Ri for eternity. We spend the remainder of the day wandering back to Gokyo to unwind or explore the surrounding Cho-Yu base camp and the fifth lakes after making such amazing memories. We are going to stay the night at the teahouse.
Day 15 Gokyo to Lungden vis Renjola Pass
Today marks a significant day for the traversal of Renjo La (5,360m). Following a quiet breakfast, you leave your tent and go up through a wide curie to the ridge line ahead of you. Once we cross this last challenging bridge, we are rewarded with a breathtaking vista of Mount Everest and the blue lakes of Gokyo.
To get to your campsite on the western side of Gokyo, you must descend across moraine and parched glacial slabs. We will probably need ropes to go into the remote northern valley, which is 100 metres lower, between November and February. It is possible to witness Tibetan traders passing across the Nangpa La pass, which links Tibet with the Himalayas, in caravans of woolly yaks laden with goods. Remain at the teahouse in Lungden.
Day 16 Lungden to Thame
We set out late and follow the Bhote Kosi River the entire way down. We go down the Nangpa Valley, through several little villages, until we finally reach the town of Marlung, where we stop for lunch. From Marlung to Thami, the road winds through the Tauranga community before descending and undulating. We stay at a teahouse for the remainder of the day and just unwind.
Day 17 Thame to Kongde
After departing Thame, we make our way down to a sturdy suspension bridge that spans the Bhote Khola. There’s some interesting Buddhist rock art in the area, and you can often see Himalayan tahrs on the rock faces above and below from this location. After travelling via the village of Thamo, where we pause for lunch before continuing on our adventure, we return to Namche Bazaar.
In the late afternoon, we make a sharp descent to the enormous suspension bridge that spans the Dudhkoshi River. We stroll through Jorsale and stop for lunch in Monjo. After a short afternoon stroll in the blue pine and rhododendron forest of Benkar, which provides breathtaking views of Kusum Kangaru, we head back to our lodge in Phakding.
Day 18 Rest day at Kongde
Kongde is a little-known gem in the Khumbu Region. From the base of Kongde Ri, one can see a 360-degree panorama of the snow-capped giants, including Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, Lhotse, Thamserku, Cholatse, Nuptse, and Kusum Kanguru.
You might spend the day lounging at the lodge or hiking the nearby hill, Farak Ri. Admire inspiring views of Mount Everest and other mountains, as well as breath-taking views of the valleys and Sherpa towns. It takes two to three hours to ascend the slope.
Go back to your lodge in the evening and get some rest.
Day 19 Kongde to Phakding
Once you have taken in the breathtaking views of the mountains, you depart Kongde and descend to the lower height. The long trek passes through numerous Sherpa communities on the way to Phakding Pass. Move carefully and watch where you foot on the stone steps.
You will arrive at Phakding after a strenuous journey, spend the night at a lodge, and then relax throughout the day.
Day 20 Phakding to Lukla
On this final day of hiking, we take a quick stroll down the valley before making the last ascent to the Lukla airfield. You can use the remainder of the day as you see fit, and spend the night at a lodge in Lukla.
Day 21 Flight back to Kathmandu
We get up early in the morning to prepare for our plane’s arrival and the journey back to Kathmandu. When we return to our accommodation in Kathmandu, we are taken care of. You will have a farewell supper with RT employees.
Day 22 Departure Day
You’re going to leave Nepal today. After taking you to the airport, an employee of our business will bid you farewell.

Major Attraction Of Everest Three Passes Trek
The primary attraction of the Everest Three Passes Trek is an incredible vista that includes some of the highest peaks on Earth. As you enter the mysterious Gokyo Valley, your adventure takes you past a breathtaking lake and towards the treacherous Cho La Pass. At 5,420 metres, Cho La, which is tucked away in the Khumbu Valley, provides experienced hikers with an experience that is unmatched.
You will cross the impressive Ngozumpa Glacier on your way to Cho La, which will lend an element of adventure to your journey. The trail merges well with the well-known Everest Base Camp route in the east, offering a unique trekking experience with a combination of difficult and traditional landscapes.
Renjo La Pass (17,520 feet / 5,340 metres)
Renjo La Pass (5,340 meters/17,520 feet), a treasure along the Everest Three Passes Trek in Nepal, offers peace and spectacular beauty. This pass, which is tucked away in the Khumbu region, is one of the most beautiful and serene parts of the journey and is a crucial connection between the charming settlements of Thame and Gokyo.
Expect to be mesmerised by the trail’s allure as you pass through charming mediaeval villages, thick forests, and stunning alpine meadows that offer a close-up view of the local way of life and culture. Trekkers are rewarded with breathtaking views of the surrounding peaks, including the magnificent Mount Everest and other Himalayan giants, at the pass’s highest point, where their ascent culminates.
A fascinating valley is revealed once descending the other side of the pass, providing a chance to experience the Khumbu region and interact with the diverse Sherpa cultures. Renjo La Pass is a highlight of the Everest Three Passes Trek because it offers a cultural and visual feast in addition to a physical challenge.
Cho la pass (17,782 feet / 5,420 metres)
Reach new heights at the highest point of the Everest Three Passes Trek in Nepal, Cho La Pass (5,420 meters/17,782 ft). Located in the Khumbu area, this pass is one of the three high mountain crossings that connects the famous Everest Base Camp with the enchanted Gokyo Valley.
Trekkers are treated to unrivalled vistas of the surrounding peaks from Cho La Pass, with the imposing Mount Everest dominating the skyline. It takes skill to complete this route; it involves traversing glaciers and steep slopes, making it an arduous but ultimately rewarding trip.
Surrounded by a panoramic vista of the Himalayas, hikers have a great sense of success upon ascending Cho La Pass. The other side offers a fresh valley to explore and an opportunity to fully immerse oneself in the distinct customs and culture of the area. Cho La Pass is an essential component of the Everest Three Passes Trek because it is more than just a geographic intersection—it is a doorway to cultural and physical exploration.
Kongma la Pass measures 18,159 feet/5,535 metres)
Get ready for the ultimate test at Kongma La Pass (5,535 meters/18,159 feet), regarded as one of the hardest and most taxing parts of the Everest Three Passes Trek in Nepal. This pass, which is tucked away in the Khumbu region close to the bustling town of Namche Bazaar, is an essential conduit between the Gorak Shep region and the Chhukhung Valley.
Trekking the Kongma La Pass trail requires endurance because it passes through untamed areas, crosses glaciers, and has severe ascents and descents. Trekkers are richly rewarded with breathtaking vistas of the surrounding peaks, with the mighty Mount Everest commanding the landscape, despite the challenging barriers they must overcome.
With a broad, all-encompassing view of the Himalayas surrounding them, trekkers experience a deep sense of accomplishment as they stand triumphantly at the summit of Kongma La Pass. This pass is more than just a physical test; it’s a chance to access an amazing view and a symbol of the spirit of unwavering exploration. Get ready to conquer Kongma La Pass, where accomplishment and the grandeur of the Himalayas collide.
Essential Considerations Before Embarking On The Everest Three Passes Trek
Trekking the Everest Three Passes is an exciting adventure, but to ensure a safe and happy journey, careful planning is essential. Before you go, keep the following important things in mind:
- Physical Fitness: Due to the strenuous nature of the trek, a high level of physical fitness is required. Make sure you are physically fit and have the endurance to walk at high altitudes for several hours each day.
- Altitude Sickness: Because the walk takes you to high altitudes, altitude sickness is a real risk. Acclimatisation must be done correctly, and it is critical for your health to identify signs as soon as possible.
- Weather and Season: Late September to early December and late March to early June are the best times to go trekking. Recognise the monsoon season’s possible hazards and weather conditions.
- Travel Insurance: A complete policy is required for trekking in the Himalayas. To protect yourself from unanticipated difficulties, be sure your coverage includes emergency evacuation, medical costs, and personal liability.
- Permits and Fees: Acquire the required permits and pay the entry costs, which include the Sagarmatha National Park Permit and the TIMS card. Make sure you obtain the necessary documentation ahead of time and have it with you during the journey.
- Gear and Equipment: Having high-quality gear is essential for a safe and enjoyable walk. Make sure you bring camping equipment, clothes, and shoes that are suitable for the difficult terrain.
Confidently embark on your Everest Three Passes experience with the information and gear need for an unforgettable and secure travel.
Navigating The Challenges Of The Everest Three Passes Trek
Beginning the Everest Three Passes Trek involves significant obstacles that call for meticulous planning and preparation:
- Chola’s Slippery Ascent: Crampons are necessary to navigate the slick terrain on this strenuous physical ascent. This section of the hike presents a distinct combination of difficulties that put hikers’ abilities and stamina to the test.
- Kongma La Pass: The highest of the three passes, Kongma La Pass is situated between Chukhung and Lobuche settlements at an impressive height of 5,535 metres (18,160 ft). It’s a remarkable performance because of the physical effort caused by the thin air and steep elevation.
- Winter Suffering at Renjo La Pass: Rising to a height of 5,360 metres (17,585 feet) in the Khumbu Valley, Renjo La Pass is a severe barrier. It’s an incredibly demanding path, and doing it in the winter makes it even more difficult as hikers must negotiate adverse terrain.
It takes mental toughness in addition to physical skill to go through these passes. The Everest Three Passes Trek is an extreme adventure that offers a real test of willpower and fortitude in the face of obstacles posed by nature.
Prime Seasons For The Everest Three Passes Trek
The Everest Three Passes journey necessitates careful planning, and the spring and autumn seasons are particularly favourable for experienced trekkers for a number of reasons.
1. Good Weather: The weather is generally consistent and offers pleasant, sunny days throughout the spring (March, April, and May) and autumn (September, October, and November). This weather makes for perfect trekking conditions, enabling experienced hikers to tackle the difficult terrain with increased safety and comfort.
2. Clear Mountain Views: During these times of year, visibility is at its best, giving hikers a chance to enjoy expansive vistas of the high peaks, which include the well-known Mount Everest. Trekking is made more enjoyable and visually attractive by the clear, crisp sky that prevail in the spring and autumn.
3. Comfortable Temperature: These seasons’ temperatures are a perfect mix of warmth during the day and coolness at night. Trekkers travelling different altitudes will especially benefit from this equilibrium, which ensures a controllable and comfortable trekking environment.
4. Minimal Weather-Related Risks: Spring and autumn provide less weather-related risks than the monsoon season and harsh winter conditions. Less likelihood of precipitation and warmer weather make for a safer hiking experience—which is in line with what seasoned hikers want and anticipate.
Note: For the Everest Three Passes trip, choosing spring or autumn guarantees the best combination of weather—clear views of the mountains, temperate temperatures, and a lower chance of unfavourable weather events. These seasons offer the ideal window of opportunity for anyone looking for a demanding yet rewarding trekking adventure.
Food During Everest Three Passes Trek
In terms of nutrition, a range of timely and filling meals will be provided along the journey. For breakfast, the main and sometimes best options are bread or chapati, eggs, potatoes, porridge, fried Mars bars, and tea or coffee. There will be a variety of rice dishes, lentil soup, curried potatoes with veggies, greens, and papad for lunch. Dinners will be lighter food so as not to compromise health for the sake of a balanced diet.
During the walk, it is advised to avoid greasy foods, pizza, burgers, and other Western-style meals, as well as alcohol and tobacco. This cautious approach is intended to protect hikers’ health and wellbeing by making sure that food selections are appropriate for the physical demands of the walk. Choosing meals that are prepared locally not only improves the experience of trekking overall but also helps to ensure that you stay in good health throughout the journey.

The menu will mostly include traditional Nepalese cuisine, but if other world cuisines, such as Tibetan, Indian, Continental, Italian, etc., are offered, you can also savour them. You will be provided with breakfast, a farewell meal, and a welcome dinner throughout your time in Kathmandu.
Altitude Sickness
At a particular altitude, low oxygen levels can produce altitude sickness. It usually happens at elevations of 2500 metres or above. In rare circumstances, the illness may also develop below 2500 metres. Headaches, nausea or vomiting, exhaustion, lack of sleep, etc. are symptoms of the illness. Further complications from the illness may include HACE, HAPE, and AMS. If preventive steps are taken, the illness can be avoided; if it is not treated at the time, it could also be fatal. Acute Mountain Sickness, or AMS
HACE (High Altitude Cerebral Edema)
The illness directly affects the brain because it causes the brain to enlarge with fluid. The illness frequently poses a threat to life and needs to be treated very away. Disorientation, sluggishness, loss of coordination, memory loss, psychotic behaviour, nausea, vomiting, headaches, etc. are symptoms of the illness.
HAPE (High Altitude Pulmonary Edema)
The illness has an impact on the lungs since the disorder causes the lungs to enlarge from the accumulation of fluid, which can be fatal if left untreated. A prolonged cough, tightness in the chest, frothy sputum, suffocation during sleep, headache, blue skin, quick breathing, etc. are some of the symptoms of HAPE.
Prevention for Everest Three Passes Trek
If not treated in a timely manner, altitude sickness could result in fatal illnesses. The following steps could stop the illnesses that pose a serious risk to life:
- Gaining height gradually over several days
- Abstaining from tobacco and alcohol
- Consuming plenty water when on the walk
- Getting a complete medical examination at least six months before the trip
- Consuming a light yet high-calorie diet
