    Hiking

    Gorakshep is the last settlement before reaching Everest Base Camp. In fact, from Gorakshep, it is possible to reach Everest Base Camp in just two hours' walk. Gorakshep is located at 5,164 meters altitude. From Gorakshep it is possible to reach Kala Patthar, a splendid panoramic point, walking for about an hour and a half.

    Hiking

    This is the last settlement before Everest base camp. This however is very expensive and always crowded. From here Base camp is within 2-3 hours proximity and also Kalapatthar is in similar distance. Charging phones also cost you money here.
