Everest Base Camp Trek
he trek to the east face of Everest known as the Kangshung Face is one of the most gorgeous in the world. This trek is relatively unknown and it passes through pristine, untouched valleys and lakes. In fact, the entire region from Kharta to the Kama Valley - extending to the Arun Valley on the Nepal side - is part of the blessed land of Guru Rinpoche called "Be-yul Khembalung" or the Hidden Valley.
The whole region abounds with holy lakes, mountains, and the sacKangshung Facered "Kharta Tsechu", the long life water spring. Kharta and the Kama Valley are characterized by magnificent alpine scenery and rich flora and contain the highest known forests in the world. Three of the world's highest peaks Everest 8848 m, Lhotse 8501 m, and Makalu 8463 m overlook the valley.
