Mount Everest Introduction
Mt Everest is the highest mountain in the world measuring 8,848m (29,028feet) in height. It was first climbed on May 29, 1953 by a New Zealander Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay of Nepal .Mount Everest is also known by the Tibetan name Chomolangma (goddess mother of the snows), and by the Nepali name Sagarmatha (Mother of the Universe).
Climbing Everest treks to Everest Base Camp are becoming increasingly popular on both the north and south sides of the mountain .On the north side, a Buddhist monastery is one of two whose locations were selected specifically to allow religious contemplation of the great peak. The other side is the Thyangboche Monastery in Nepal. The once active Rangbuk monastery in Tibet has required much rejuvenation from the destruction it experienced following China’s invasion of Tibet.
What to expect from trekking in the off-season at Everest Base Camp?
Trekking in the off-season is not so famous in Nepal. One of the major reason to avoid trekking in the off-season is the down pouring monsoon. The rain causes various issues which can be a big hurdle while trekking in the off-season.
But it also does not mean that trekking is completely impossible during the off-season. The off-season for trekking starts from June to August which is the time for monsoon in Nepal. The northern Himalayan parts of the country receive a very small percentage of rainfall while compared to the southern Terai part of the country.
Trekking at the Everest Base camp can both be pleasant and headache during the off-season. The flights are not packed like the peak seasons. Also, you get the accommodation at a very cheaper price in off season like July and August
