What kind of physical shape do I need to be in to trek to Everest Base Camp?
Excellent cardio-vascular conditioning and muscles that are used to hiking will make your trip much more enjoyable. Our goal is to climb Kala Patar at 18,700 feet, and walk on broken glacial moraine all the way into Base Camp, at 17,500 feet. You will spend 16 days in a land where life is simple, trails are steep and the air is thin. Begin training today if you want to get the most from this trip.
