If you've ever dreamed of approaching the top of the world without being an extreme mountaineer, you cannot get closer to that than hiking to Mount Everest Base Camp! On the way, you will be rewarded by beautiful sceneries, breathtaking Himalaya panorama and lovely culture of local people also known as Sherpa. If your fitness is in average shape, you’re good to go. However, be aware to expect around 6-8 hours of hiking every day. On the other hand, you will not need to climb, use snowshoes or ropes during the trek. So, take your time and enjoy the landscape to reduce the efforts and prevent altitude sickness. Slowly hiking and lots of drinking are highly important! You will probably meet people with completely different fitness levels and ages. Nevertheless, you have to pay attention to your health to recognize signs of altitude sickness. Do not ascend and stay at that altitude or descend if your symptoms do not get better. However, if you walk slowly and take your acclimatization rests, it will be an extremely valuable experience!
