Your health is our main priority. All the meals you will get during the trek are fresh, hygienic, and locally sourced. The meal options during the trek are:

• Dal Bhaat Tarkari (rice, lentil soup seasonal vegetables, pickles, meat, and other side dishes).
• Noodles, Mo: Mo (dumplings), fried rice, curry dishes, porridge, macaroni, spaghetti, pizza, lasagna, and many more.

Besides the food included in the package, we also suggest you carry protein bars and dried fruits to eat during the trek.

Note: If you have any allergies or dietary preferences, please inform us during the booking process.

How do we plan the Everest Panorama Trek Itinerary?

A detailed and well-planned itinerary is very essential for a successful adventure. All the packages at Access Nepal To0urs and Trekking are carefully made with the help of experts. The trek itinerary is made in a way to gives you both fun, challenges, safety, and enough rest.

When trekking to high-altitude places, elevation is the major obstacle. When you climb higher, there will be less oxygen level. Likewise, your body requires some time to adapt to the height. That’s why rest days or acclimatization days are important.

On your 11-day Everest Panorama Trek itinerary, we have included one acclimatization day at Namche Bazaar (Day 5). This is to help your body get familiar with altitude and prevent yourself from getting altitude sickness.

Difficulty Level of Everest Panorama View Trek

The difficulty level of the Everest Panorama Trek is easy. However, you still have to be physically fit and well-prepared, and you can complete the trek without any struggle. This trek is suitable for every type of trekker.

The challenges that will make your trek difficult are long hours of trek, climates, elevation, and trails.

The highest point of this trek is Tengboche sitting at 3,860m. Though the probability of getting altitude sickness at this height is low, we still suggest you be careful. As you know “Precaution is better than cure.”

Altitude Sickness Prevention and Acclimatization Tips

The Everest Panorama trek is suitable for all types of trekkers. You don’t have to worry much about altitude sickness as the highest point you will be going is 3,860m. However, if you are coming from the plain areas, you are most prone to altitude sickness. That’s why we have included acclimatization day at Namche Bazaar.

To prevent from getting altitude sickness, our itinerary is prepared on the rule of “Climb High, Sleep Low.”

Other tips to avoid altitude sickness are drinking lots of water, walking gradually, and avoiding alcohol and smoking consumption. If you feel any symptoms like nausea, dizziness, weakness, and headache, immediately descend down or inform the guide.
