Itinerary description

Show original
Here is a gpx summary of what we did during the trek.
The description is written in Greek (I'm bored to write it in English as well)
The translation is automatic by google translate.

The trek lasted 14 days.
In detail, what we did each day: (I'll fill it in little by little)

Day 1
Lukla - Phakding
Because the route was short, I made an additional route
Day 1 (extra route)
Phakding - Pema Chholing Monastery - Phakding

Day 2
Phakding - Namche Bazaar

Day 3 (acclimatization day)
Most people go up to the Everest view hotel, drink their coffee, take photos of Everest and descend again from the same.
I preferred to do a satisfying round trip.
Namche Bazaar - Everest view - Khumjung - Khunde - Hillary Memorial - Syanbotche - Namche Bazaar

Day 4
This route passes through Mong La, which is normally not included in the classic route. I did above elevations. But it's worth doing.
Namche Bazaar - Mong La (3985) - Phortse - Tengboche - Deboche - Panboche

Day 5
Today we have a short ride, less than 2 hours.
Pangboche - Dingboche
Day 5 (extra route)
Because the route to Dingboche is short, before we go, we take a walk from Ama Dablam base camp
Panboche - Ama Dablam base camp - Panboche

Day 6 (acclimatization day)
Before we go for coffee at the well-known 4410
we also do a few elevation hikes, so as to raise pulses.
Dingboche - Nangkartshang - Dingboche

Day 7.
Way too short. In less than 90 minutes we are at our destination.
Dingboche - Chukhung
Day 7 (extra route)
Since we came quickly, in order to spend our day productively, we also go for a walk to Island peak base camp
Chukhung - Island peak base camp - Chukhung

Day 8
The hardest route of our trek. We pass through the Kongma La pass.
Chhukung Via Kongma La pass to Lobuche

Day 9
The day has arrived. We are going to see the Everest base camp!
Lobuche - Gorakshep - Everest base camp - Gorakshep

Day 10
Gorakshep - Labutse - Dzongla

Day 11
We are going through the second pass today. To approach the pass we walk on a glacier.
I had a gripon with me. It's overkill and not needed. But they are needed
spikes

Day 12
Today we do the third pass.
Gokyo Via Renjola Pass (5360m) to Lungden

Day 13
Lungden - Namche

Day 14
Namche Bazar - Lukla

I continue straight for the normal path of ebc. Left I'll go to do Mong La. This means more altitude and kilometers. However, the path is worth it
