About Kathmandu: Mt. Everest South Col Trek by Mountain Ascend
Embark on a 30-day expedition to the summit of Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world. Begin your journey in Kathmandu, where you'll explore the city and prepare for the climb. Then, trek to Everest Base Camp, passing through picturesque villages and experiencing the life of the mountain people.
From Base Camp, ascend to Camp I, where you'll see the Khumbu Glacier. Continue to Camp II and Camp III, located at the head of Lhotse. From this point onwards, use oxygen cylinders as you reach Camp IV, also known as the Death Zone.
