Youngest Person to do the Everest Base Camp Trek
The youngest person to do the Everest Base Camp Trek is Siddhi Mishra from India. He achieved this milestone at just 2 years, 11 months, 15 days in March 2024.
Likewise, Carter Dallas from Scotland is also believed to have succeeded this feat around 2 years old in late 2023. He was carried on his father’s back in between. Reaching the top is now possible for everyone. The only thing you will need is significant family support, preparation, and Sherpa guidance.
Accommodation during the Everest Base Camp Trek With Kids
The package includes all required accommodations throughout the Everest Base Camp Trek with kids. All the provided accommodations during the adventure are comfortable and come in twin-sharing rooms. The accommodation services may change as you climb higher.
During your stay in Kathmandu, hotel rooms are twin-sharing with attached toilets and bathrooms. Hot showers and internet are available for free in Kathmandu.
On trek, you’ll stay in Nepali teahouses, family-run guesthouses with basic twin-bed rooms (often on multiple-bed dormitory floors) and shared bathrooms.
Lower in the Khumbu (Lukla, Phakding, Namche), teahouses can be quite comfortable, warm dining rooms, hot showers (for a small fee), and even solar-charged Wi-Fi. Higher up (Dingboche, Lobuche, Gorak Shep), amenities are spartan: no shower or electricity after dark, single rooms lit by kerosene or solar lights, and few lodges, so booking is wise.
Throughout the trek, guides will book your rooms in advance to ensure availability. Kids usually share a room with parents or same-sex peers. Rooms typically come with pillows, blankets, and a mattress; we strongly recommend bringing a good down sleeping bag rated below -10°C, as nights at altitude can drop to -10°C or colder.
On average, basic teahouse rooms cost about $10-25 per night for two people (rates rise at higher altitudes). The industry-standard view is that “accommodation on the actual trek is quite cheap, making family budgeting easier. Each evening, warm meals are served family-style in the common dining hall.
Dietary Guidelines during the Everest Base Camp Trek With Kids
Teahouse menus are simple but child-friendly. Expect dal bhat (rice, lentils, veggies), noodle soups, pasta, omelettes, pancakes, and occasional “pizza” (flatbread with cheese). One trekking family noted that with a child’s peanut allergy, menus posed no problem, Nepali cooks rarely use peanuts, and their kids happily ate toast, rice, soup, and potatoes.
Vegetarians and vegans are well-cateredto (dal bhat is inherently vegan), and gluten-free diets can usually be managed with prior notice. Nevertheless, we advise bringing favorite snacks (granola bars, dried fruit, trail mix, etc.) and any special foods or supplements. Encourage kids to eat well each day (three meals plus snacks) to maintain energy, and drink plenty of water (bottled or purified). Tea houses also sell hot tea, coffee, and electrolyte drinks.
Note: above Namche Bazaar, menus drop meat and cheese options, focusing on simple carbs and veg for high altitude. We will plan children’s meals and caloric needs carefully; balanced nutrition is a key safety measure at elevation.
Things to Know Before Booking this Family Everest Base Camp Trek with Juniors
Everest Base Camp Trek is a moderate-level adventure. This trek takes you into the high-altitude and remote mountain villages. And if you are preparing for the Everest Base Camp Trek with Kids, you must prepare mentally and physically.
- Physical training for 2 or 3 months before the trek.
- Trek with a licensed and professional guide only.
- Pre-prepare your family mentally and physically beforehand.
- Consult your kids with a pediatrician
- Choose the safest and best trekking season.
- Go through the trip inclusions and their safety protocols.
- Book with an experienced and licensed local agency that provides good child care.
Ideal Age to do the EBC Trek With Kids
Children above 5 years old can do the Everest Base Camp Trek. Though children below 5 have also done this trek, with the youngest being 2 years 11 months old. But it requires great preparation and guidance.
Young kids are not suitable because they are vulnerable to the harsh conditions. Therefore, choose an itinerary like ours, which has extra days, safe trekking duration, acclimatization stops, and which follows a gradual elevation gain strategy.
If the logistics are not planned properly, your children have a high risk of getting altitude sickness. Access Nepal Tours and Trekking operates a trek under supervision.
Everest Base Camp Trek With Kids: Difficulty
The Everest Base Camp Trek difficulty level is moderate to strenuous. Since this package is designed for kids, it follows a slower pace and short hiking days. The Everest Base Camp Trek with Kids involves 3 to 5 hours of daily hiking on average. The trails are well-established with rocky and steep hills in a few sections.
Trekking at high altitude is already difficult even for adults. The highest points of this trek are 5,644 meters at the Kala Patthar viewpoint and Everest Base Camp at 5,364m. The Everest Base Camp route takes you through high-suspension bridges, pine forests, and windswept high camps. The major challenges of this trek are altitude and thin air. This makes breathing harder and might cause altitude sickness if not properly managed.
However, it’s not impossible to do this trek for kids. Generally fit and healthy 5+ year-olds can complete the Everest Base Camp Trek easily. Regular exercise and physical fitness are strongly recommended for all age trekkers. Train your kids by doing exercise to improve strength, energy, and endurance. Exercise daily for 2 or 3 months before the trek for better results. In comparison to adults, kids actually handle the fatigue and steep climbs better.
Our guides are professional and first aid trained. Throughout the trek, they will monitor the kids closely. In case of medical emergencies, we arrange the emergency helicopter evacuation too. Our Everest Base Camp Trek with Kids itinerary is also made under the strict safety protocols, includes gradual altitude gain, acclimatization days, and short trekking days.
Best Time to Do the Everest Base Camp Trek With Kids
The best times for the Everest Base Camp Trek are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). Spring and Autumn seasons are the peak trekking time in Nepal. Due to the stable weather conditions, great visibility, and comfortable temperature, this time of the year is popular to do the Everest Base Camp Trek.
During the spring season, the whole trail blooms with colourful rhododendrons and wild flowers. Trekking through the green and colourful forests in mild temperatures offers a great trekking experience.
Similarly, the autumn season brings great visibility, blue skies, and crisp mountain air. It is peak trekking season in Nepal. Since it falls around the major festivals of Nepal (Dashain and Tihar), you might get a chance to experience it firsthand.
It is best to avoid trekking to Everest Base Camp with kids in winter (December to February) and the monsoon (June to Aug). Trekking with kids during this season is not recommended. Winters are extremely cold and harsh at himalayas. Monsoon brings heavy rainfalls and causes muddy trails, leeches, etc.
Therefore, the Everest Base Camp Trek with Kids is best done around the main window (spring/fall). It is safer, more comfortable, and minimizes weather risk.
Everest Base Camp Trek Permits for Kids
To do the Everest Base Camp Trek with juniors, you will need two permits: the Sagarmatha National Park Entry Permit and the Khumbu Pasang Lhamu Rural Municipality Permit. These permits are essential for the conservation of national parks and funding local communities.
Both of these permits cost, and arrangements are included in the package. However, if you are doing this trek by yourself, you can obtain them from the Nepal Tourism Board office in Thamel. The Sagarmath National Park Entry Permit costs around NPR 3,000 (US$26) per person, and the Khumbu permit is NPR 2,000 (US$17).
Otherwise, we will arrange everything required before the Everest Base Camp Trek. To get permits, you have to provide passport photocopies and 2 passport photos. Your permits will be carried by your guide. You have to show the permit during the checkpoint inspections.
Note: Children’s trek permits costs are same as adults. All foreign visitors must have an arrival visa before trekking.
What to Expect on the Everest Base Camp Trek for Kids Trail?
The Everest Base Camp Trek With Kids is a child-oriented package highly recommended to do with family. This 19-day-long adventure offers breathtaking views and a new cultural experience that children love.
Hiking through calm pine forests to Buddhist stupas and mani walls, spotting the first peaks of Everest and Ama Dablam provide very new thrill for your young hearts. Visiting shops, bakeries, museums, and playgrounds built high in the Himalayas presents a different kind of enjoyment for kids.
Likewise, you will also pass through Pangboche and Tengboche villages, home to ancient monasteries and Mani Rimdu festival rituals. Another major highlight is trekking inside the Sagarmatha National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Children will love the breathtaking landscapes, Himalayan glaciers, waterfalls, snowfields, alpine meadows, and rhododendron forests. Along the route, kids can spot mountain goats, Himalayan pheasants, and other wildlife.
Due to the established route and services, even high-altitude trekking areas have a suitable environment for families with kids.

Is Travel Insurance Required for the Everest Base Camp Trek for Kids?
Yes, travel insurance is mandatory for kids to do this trek. All the travellers doing a trek in Nepal must have insurance.

Altitude Sickness & Prevention When Trekking with Kids
Altitude sickness is a major challenge when trekking with children. It equally affects the kids as it does adults. But the reassuring fact is that, naturally, kids are less prone to altitude sickness. However, unlike adults childeren do not voice their symptoms clearly, especially young ones below 10.

Gradual elevation is another key step to prevent AMs. Our itinerary also includes acclimatization days at Namche Bazaar and Dingboche.
The per day altitude gain in the Everest Base Camp Trek with kids is about 300m to 500m. Unlike classice route of Everest Base Camp, the junior trekking itinerary includes extra stops in between, like Lukla, then trek to Phakding, Monjo, and Namche Bazaar.
Our Everest Base Camp Trek with Kids is 19 days long, which is a very safe duration for children. Your children will be under the supervision of guides throughout the trip. Guides will teach them to report any headache, dizziness, or nausea immediately.
As parents, make sure to make them drink enough water to stay hydrated and feed them. Similarly, all guides provided for the Everest Base Camp Trek for kids are professional and first-aid trained.

Amazing time doing EBC trek with Access Nepal! I went with Access Nepal for my Everest Base Camp 14 day trek, and I had an incredible experience! From my very initial inquiry, Sadhana was quick to respond and answer any questions. She made me feel very comfortable and connected throughout the entire process, and provided me with all the relevant information leading up to my arrival. When we finally met in Kathmandu to discuss the trek, she was just as friendly and kind and made me feel at ease knowing I was starting the next morning. I was met by my guide Om Prakash at the Kathmandu airport. From there he was with me the entire time as we traveled to Lukla to begin our trek and until I returned to Kathmandu. Om Prakash was an excellent and friendly guide, with so much knowledge of the area, the culture, the route, where to stay and safe places to eat and drink, and he also took the best photos! It was very helpful to have a local speaking guide to handle flight and accommodation logistics on my behalf, making sure I have somewhere to stay and eat every night. Throughout the trek, he managed my health and recommended me the best course of action when I wasn’t feeling 100%. He set the trekking pace accordingly to ensure my best success. Our porter, Bidur, was also extremely lovely during the trek. He handled my things with proper care, always made sure to have it ready on time by the evening, was extremely friendly and nice to talk to, and provided excellent service and companionship. Overall I had a 10/10 experience with Access Nepal: the trip coordinator Sadhana, my guide Om Prakash and my porter Bidur. I would recommend going with Access Nepal if you are looking to conquer the EBC trek or any similar in Nepal!
