Mount Everest – The Roof of the World

Mount Everest, towering at 8,848 meters, is not just the highest peak on Earth – it’s a symbol of adventure, resilience, and awe-inspiring natural beauty. Nestled in the Himalayas between Nepal and Tibet, this legendary mountain draws trekkers, climbers, and dreamers from every corner of the globe.

Visitors don’t come just to summit – many explore Everest Base Camp, experience Sherpa culture, or simply marvel at the immense scale of the Himalayas. The journey is as powerful as the destination.

Getting to the Everest region often begins in Kathmandu, followed by a flight to Lukla and a breathtaking trek through villages like Namche Bazaar and Tengboche.

Before you plan your route, check the local weather – mountain climates shift rapidly and preparation is key.

This guide shares the essence of Everest: how to reach it, what to see, and why it’s one of the most humbling places on Earth.
