Everest Base Camp Solo Trek Part 11 | No Guide | No Porter | No Diamox | Return | Nepal | November

The Everest Base Camp trek on the south side, at an elevation of 5,364 m (17,598 ft), is one of the most popular trekking routes in the Himalayas and about 40,000 people per year make the trek there from Lukla airport. Trekkers usually fly from Kathmandu to Lukla to save time and energy before beginning the trek to the base camp. However, trekking to Lukla is possible. There are no roads from Kathmandu to Lukla and as a result, the only method of transporting large and heavy goods is by plane.

So good to watch a trek from start to finish, unlike so many which show only the half way destination and forgetting that the return is equally important .

[@ChetanShende]

Thank you very much..that’s true coming back safely is the full success

This is the power of an introvert.... Aisa jigra to ek introvert ke pass hi ho sakta hai....Vina kisi dost bandhu ke akele hi nikal gaye.. Watched the whole EBC series in one go.. Mazaa aa gaya sir Kasam se bhot mazaa aa gaya ...mene bhot sari solo travelling dekhi hai lekin apka solo travelling ekdam extreme level kaa hai...sahi maayne me aap jeevan ko jee rahe ho. mai v apki tarah ees duniya ke shor sharabe se dur kahi prakriti ke pass Jana chahta hu,un Parvaton hawaon ko mehsus karna chahta hu.. Mai avi ek student hu mere pass itne paise nahi Hai ki Mai Jaa saku lekin ek din mai jarur jauga. Tab tak ke liye aap jese logo ki nazaron se ghum leta hu.. To sir kya aap mujhe annpurna base camp v ghuma sakte ho?

Great series of videos with wonderful photography well framed! Especially appreciate the one with the memorials. Specifically that you took extra time by my friend and boss of the time, ‘96,

[@jjzap2935]

I’m the person who dropped Scott off at the airport . My last words to him were; safe traveling, have fun, Make it Happen & see you when you get back.

[@ChetanShende]

Oh really..Thank you so much for your words..I felt more blessed there..It was like all of those Brave Souls giving strengths to all trekkers and mountaineers..

[@jjzap2935]

Scott was an incredible human, in many ways superhuman. I’d love to buy several copies of his book/biography and put them there for people to read. Book: Mountain Madness Scott Fischer, Mount Everest & a life lived on high. Which is the only way to get to know him a little better now. I’m not alone of tge people that knew him in saying the portrayals of him in the “movies” suck… haha which now that I think about it is okay anyway because they wouldn’t have been able to get anyone who would be able to accurately portray him. He was one of a kind in a way most people can’t even imagine is possible! Thanks again for the stellar photography and inspiration to go visit his memorial myself!

[@ChetanShende]

@@jjzap2935 The film Everest gave me a lot of inspiration for my trekking enthusiasm.

[@ChetanShende]

@@jjzap2935 I would really love to read his Biography Books and some day again visit to the memorial and spend some time there..it’s not just my word that I am saying he inspired me but I did EBC trek solo because of that inspiration, and whatever treks I did, that helped me a lot, I am really soooo happy today that I am interacting with someone who was with Scott in real.. really nice to talk to you..

Plz tell Total treking cost lukla to lukla trek?... My big bro🙏🙏 you are my inspiration... I want to start my journey in this year🤗

[@ChetanShende]

As per this year 2021-2022, If we consider Starting from Lukla and return back to Lukla, cost will be in between 33K to 40K INR for 11-12 days…Apart from this, Kathmandu to Lukla round Trip Flight will be between 14k to 15k INR . Again reaching To Kathmandu and Return from Kathmandu will depend on the mode of travel Air or By Road..from Delhi to Kathmandu round trip flight cost me 19500 INR..and trekking gears I was having already..u can get all gears on rent from Kathmandu or from Lukla..Trekking gear budget is not included in the above cost I’m referring to

[@ChetanShende]

@@paglet313 You must need previous Himalayan High Altitude Trekking experience at least till 14000-15000 feet. I’ll not recommend to go there without previous experience..I did lots of preparation before this trek. I do solo treks in Sahyandri since year 2014. So I do have enough experience to handle situations.. and I also gained Himalayan trekking experience before going here.. so get yourself expertise well before..

[@matthewlomibao6509]

Great videos, thanks for sharing. I’d like to know how to book a flight from Lukla to Kathmandu as I won’t be flying in to start the trek. Do I just board the next available flight once the EBC trek is complete? Any advice would be appreciated.

[@ChetanShende]

If you are not from India, you will be able to book flights online from Airline’s website, for one way trip. After next day of finishing your trek it will be difficult to get flight tickets , but yes there are Sales offices of Airline at Lukla as well, and it take flight at next day May be little bit expensive.. so I would suggest if ur unable to book flights online give a call to any Domestic Airline who operates Between Kathmandu to Lukla..all the best ..take care..one more latest update I want to share with you from September 2022 local authorities mandated guide for trekking in Everest Region so try to search latest information before going 👍
