    Going Nepal Pvt. Ltd Arun Valley with Everest Base Camp Trek Arun Valley with Everest Base Camp Trek Best Season: March-April-May and September-October-November Arun Valley with Everest Base Camp Trek, Everest Region Trekking lie in Sagarmatha and Makalu-Barun National Park. It is the most extreme hard and famous trekking to visit the panoramic view of above eight thousand mountains in the world. The Arun valley and Everest base camp provide really superb views of both Mt Everest and Mount Makalu. The trek requires stamina and fitness to fully appreciate the beauty of the region, which provides some outstanding mountain views. Commencing with a flight to Tumlingtar to the East of Everest, the first week is spent trekking through virgin territory into the Solu Khumbu region before a push up on the main Everest trail to Kala Pattar for tremendous close-ups of Everest Nuptse and Lhotse along with many others before a journey back to Lukla and a flight to Kathmandu. An Arun valley trek is still remote but there are available tea house facilities for a small group and it is easy trekking routes up to Lukla follow to the Arun River. It will be trekking on these trails. This trekking is possible to operate in any season. If anyone would like to walk back to Jiri and take a bus to Kathmandu it is also possible or keeps continues to Everest base camp as well. Culturally, the Arun Trek is very interesting - moving from Sherpa through to Rai villages, then down to Chhetri and Brahmin villages.

  • Lukla Airport – Gateway to Himalayas
    Lukla Airport – Gateway to Himalayas Lukla Airport, located at 2,846 m altitude, is an extreme airport that provides the thrilling flight experience from Kathmandu to Lukla and vice versa. Known as Tenzing Hillary Airport, it lies in Lukla, Khumbu, in Solukhumbu District of Province No. 1 or Eastern Nepal. Being the gateway to Everest Base Camp, Lukla is one of the most extreme airports of the world, having runway at 9,400 feet on top of a 2,000 feet cliff. Flights from Kathmandu to Lukla takes place every day during daylight hours if weather favors flying. There is frequent rainfall in Lukla while the Kathmandu is shining brightly, making visibility problems, causing delay and cancellation of flights. The plane crash records make Lukla a frightening flight. Seven crashes have occurred after 2000, that have killed more than fifty passengers and crew. Having no safety cushion if the landing is missed or in case of an equipment failure, Lukla- bound flights do not have excellent safety. If you are planning to take a flight to Lukla, keep extra days included as the cancellation of the trip is not uncommon. The airplane's alternative is the helicopter that you can charter for $1,500 to $2,500, which will carry 5 to 6 people. But helicopter crashes are also recorded. In 2013, a helicopter crashed that killed one passenger. The beautiful Everest Base Camp trail makes trekker take Lukla-bound flights. If you are a die-hard trekker, you can trek instead of flying, which will add another ten days to your trip.

The dramatic growth of the tourism in- dustry has increased pressures on the environment and the National Park is heavily affected by the rapidly growing waste issue. Besides, major mass movements play an important role in the Himalaya and have been observed in SNPBZ. Also, seasonal monsoon floods, debris flows, rock falls, landslides and the creation of glacial lake outburst floods are frequently occurring in the re- gion. This paper explores the reciprocal interactions between the geo-environment and solid waste management in Everest’s SNPBZ. Therefore, geological characteristics and geomorphologi- cal processes, especially the two large rockslides in Lukla and Khumjung, as well as their conse- quences for rock quality, climatic and hydrologic conditions, are analyzed and simultaneously connected to the rapidly growing tourism-induced waste issue.
