01 / THE EXPERIENCE

Discover the journey

Read the full journey overview

Inspired by Sir Chris Bonnington’s new route on Everest in 1975 this trek introduces a new twist on the traditional treks in the Everest region. Whilst you don’t trek to base camp you will explore valleys and passes very rarely visited by trekkers in the region. You trek away from the crowds staying in lodges on the approach and camping in more remote locations. The highlight of the trek is a challenging crossing of an unknown pass north of the Renjo La.
