General Information
For many their journey to Nepal would
not be complete without a glimpse of the highest mountain
on Earth. For some it will be enough to view Everest from
the Kathmandu valley rim on a clear day, it is also possible
to sit in the comfort of a plane seat for the experience.
Others however settle only for a more intimate meeting with
the last earthly rung on
the stairway to the heavens. The Everest Region is within

120 kms North East of Kathmandu and covers an area of 1,148
