Everest region (Khumbu) – The Everest or Khumbu region is very popular trekking area in Nepal.  This region is very famous, not only for the highest mountain Everest but also for Sherpa village, monastery, flora and fauna, glaciers and water resources. Many big Glaciers and Dudh Koshi River, Bhote Koshi River flowed   from this region.

Everest base camp trek is so popular because of the highest mountain Everest.  Kalapathar is the best view point. The trek takes 13 days and reaches a maximum height of 5545m. at Kalapathar. The attractions include spectacular scenery and the outgoing Sherpa people of the Solu Khumbu, the region where Mt. Everest (8848m.) and its attendant lesser peaks are located.
