Next is the small village of Jorsale which will be reached after crossing a high suspension bridge and walking for about 2 hours alongside a striking trek trail.

After crossing this bridge, we shall walk for another 2 to 3 hours on steep Himalayan terrain and later arrive at the outstanding Sherpa town of Namche Bazaar.

Stay overnight in Namche Bazaar.

Rest Day at Namche

As scheduled, today we are planning to stay at Namche Bazaar for acclimatization purposes. Situated at a high altitude of 3,450 meters above sea level, Namche Bazaar is the perfect place to help our bodies acclimatize and adjust to the environmental changes of such high altitudes. Due to change in weather, altitude and the rigorous exercise of walking terrains, a day is taken off the schedule for trekkers to rest and enjoy the sites around Namche Bazaar. During this day, trekkers can hike a little up towards the Everest View Hotel for spectacular views of Mt. Everest and Mt. Ama Dablam alongside others snow capped giants. Lastly, the major aim of this day is to prevent any possible symptoms of High Altitude Sickness which may hamper the remaining trek days.

Stay overnight in Namche Bazaar.

Trek from Namche to Tengboche (3860 M AMSL)

As the sun shines over the beautiful hills and valleys of Khumbu region, you need to wake up and have your breakfast as we plan on leaving Namche Bazaar today. Following a trail that traverses from Choi Gang to Kyanjuma Foundation, we descend down to a suspension bridge across Dudh Koshi River. After crossing the bridge and passing a few tea houses en route, the trail reaches Phunki Thanga. Pointing towards the next destination, a pleasant walk uphill begins that goes through a blended trail of forest and shrubs.

Continuing on with our trek, we walk through the beautiful meadow fields, several tea houses and ultimately reach Pheriche, after 3 hours of trek from Pangboche village.

Rest Day at Pheriche

You have to keep in mind that while trekking at very high altitude, your body tires out faster and needs time to recuperate itself. Hence, just like Namche Bazaar, we are going to stay in Pheriche for the day and give our body the much-needed rest which it solely deserves. It is a free day so either you can rest or roam around the surrounding areas of Pheriche village. That is totally up to you. But we suggest going out and enjoying the natural surroundings while taking memorable photographs will be more enjoyable than just sitting inside your lodge/tea house.
