Nepal's Worst Trekking Season Got Us SCARED

Episode 2 of the Jiri - Lukla - Three Passes and Everest Base Camp Trek.
This trekking series took place in September/October 2024.
Where We Stayed:
Highland Sherpa Guesthouse (Deurali)
Riverside Guesthouse (Kinja)
We continue our trek from Jiri to Lukla with the goal of reaching Everest Base Camp (EBC) and the three passes. We pass through Shivalaya, Deurali and Kinja. The late monsoon season in Nepal is the worst trekking season this year, causing heavy rains and floods as well as dangerous landslides that got us scared on our adventure through the Himalayas.

“No phones in sight”…what a wonderful observation. Being disconnected and reconnecting with real living.

[@dasensonadv]

I've been to Nepal....the people is amazing (Commenting from Kuala Lumpur)

[@adraff81]

[@dasensonadv]

[@Iamashleyknapp]

Yay, I’m so happy y’all uploaded! I’ve been waiting for this video! Y’all have such great videos

[@TravelsonToast]

[@invisiblechains969]

one of my fav counties i ever visited could happily live up in those mountains so peaceful

[@georgekotecha3355]

What a trip guys, bless you all red at the end! The views look incredible and Mario loving the singing, apparently singing at high altitude gets more oxygen into your lungs and stops you getting altitude sickness 😂 Much love to you both xx

[@maiyiayangs8670]

I like Nepal mountain i watching their videos Love this ❤

[@ZabbyY114]

Have a safe & sound journey

[@TravelsonToast]

Thank you!

[@pj-vq3by]

13 minute mark we call those 'puff balls'(common name) in the west...and i loved Olivias hopeful, "it doesn't get you high does it" haha

[@TravelsonToast]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed that part! 😅

[@booklover555]

What beautiful views, nature and the lovely little villages along your trek!! Thank you for sharing this. I’m a traveler too but I know I wouldn’t be able to do this type of climb. I’m living it through both of you.

[@TravelsonToast]

We're happy you're enjoying the adventure!

[@hamronpl6329]

Welcome to Nepal and please carefully carry on your steps for trekking 🎉

[@Mr_राई]

[@alanbaldwin7277]

Great video, keep safe guys.

[@testtest-wj5tu]

Love you both doing extreme hiking no one exactually does that, beside very very few.

[@chiniyaduwal]

Great to watch the original path which i did 15yr ago. i hope this video will inspire many others to do real EBC trek.

[@TravelsonToast]

We hope so too!

[@AmarLama-ov2li]

In those jungle areas you should be careful and not have eachother too far

[@karipintakivi9153]

Namaste as a greeting is fine at lower elevations, but after reaching Sherpa country you should switch to "tashi delek", meaning good luck and good health in Tibetan (Sherpa language is one of the over 40 Tibetan dialects).

[@ChuriNgamula-h6w]

I would say just stick with namaste

[@slavexplorer]

have a fun guys :)))

[@surenkunwar5875]

I am a Nepalese citizen watching from Europe European people having good times in Nepal :D

[@suzanmagar6323]

Missed my days when I was in Nepal

[@sureshkhatri6476]

Hello Hi Namaskar Iam From Kathamandu Nepal .

[@lichanyanthan5684]

October and November is best for trekking....after monsoon.

[@Diiartymiind]

I hope you enjoy there

[@TravelsonToast]

So far we love it here!

[@karipintakivi9153]

From Jiri to Lukla? Why Lukla, it is a detour and a 200m extra climb from the trail to Namche.

[@TravelsonToast]

We didn't expect good lodges on the way to namche and needed wifi and laundry services, but now we know for next time!

[@nepaleseinchina]

We believe this is the good season but earlier rain washed many stuffs.

[@emerislinmer]

Thats crazy that a soft drink costs almost as much as a room for a night.

[@TravelsonToast]

Yeah, the rooms are probably the most affordable part of the trek.

[@paragsatyal6891]

That structure with tablets are called mani walls, those tablet have “Om Mane Padme Hum” inscribed on them in Tibetan script, it’s the most important chant/mantra in Tibetan Buddhism. You’ll find the same mantra carved on huge boulders, prayer flags and prayer wheels. Inside the prayer wheels are flags with the mantra printed hundreds and thousands of times, and each time you spin the prayer wheel it has a multiplier effect, as is the belief. You might even find people (especially older people) softly chanting the mantra as they go about their day.

[@karipintakivi9153]

Always pass mani walls and prayer wheels from the left, then possible to touch /spin them with your right hand.

[@TravelsonToast]

Thank you so much for this interesting information!

[@kamalmoktan7126]

well come to nepal n my home town shivalaya chuchure

[@pradipgrg4472]

❤❤❤

[@sellebranzuela5763]

When did you guys travel? Hows Kathmandu after the flood? Im thinking to go this November. Is it now good to travel? And explore the City of Kathmandu

[@angrymaniac53]

The monsoon has pretty much ended. It ended late but it has ended. Not sure if the roads has been cleaned buy yeah it should be okay to travel now. It's dashain and tihar month. So many people would be returning to their villages. Considering how lakhs of people are leaving each day it's definitely okay.

[@TravelsonToast]

Yes it's OK to travel now!

[@Chancelofi333]

nepali children assum candy when they see foreigner

[@MattFinch-f2w]

October is best.

[@sandeepbasnet5457]

[@karipintakivi9153]

Awful roads... Hiking in is the only way to go, I have walked in from Jiri 3 times (1985, 1998, 2000) once from Dhap (2018), twice out to Jiri/Shivalaya (1985, 2009). Great memories. Here is something we experienced in 2000 when in Jumbesi: Sir Edmund Hillary visiting the village: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYLVlpqjbsh3lc0

[@TravelsonToast]

Wow that's really impressive!

[@kcsanzay3551]

[@SonOfTheMostHighGod777]

🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪👏👏👏

[@sngvlog6957]

You guys are risk into yourself trekking alone. You guys really need a guide. Guide will help you find the way . Going wrong way. Very dangerous

[@TravelsonToast]

We appreciate your advice, we did our research before going and guides aren't necessary for this region, plus we wanted to enjoy alone 🙂

[@kb5341]

You crazy ppl ,its reason its called off season ..it Can go realy wroung .go back crazy KZbinr sorry

[@TravelsonToast]

Sorry, we didn't realise that October and November is rainy season in Nepal. Which month isn't rainy?

[@凌星-v6u]
