ROUTE (II)
Kathmandu to Jiri is 188 km.but by bus it takes full day. This is the best way to do an Everest Base Camp trek. Because most of the people fly to Lukla and only trek the high-altitude portion of the route. This means that the portion of the trek from jiri to Lukla is often uncrowned, and there for excellent trekking country.
You follows the classic Everest Expedition route though hill village. Lots of climbing as the route crosses several ridge, than descends to cross a river. An excellent trek that offer good chance to acclimatize before heading to Everest Base Camp. |
