Everest View Panorama Trek or also known as Tengboche Trek is very pleasurable alpine trekking at a maximum height of 3860 m. The highlights of this trekking are Sherpa village, Monastery, Mountain View and Eco-hiking. The Tengboche trek starts from Lukla (2,840 m.) and passes through Namche Bazaar. Namche Bazaar is a beautiful Sherpa village.
Tengboche is a popular place because of its big monastery and view point. We will find a lot of Yak and Jopkyo (crossed cow and yak) on the way; these large domesticated animals are a major means of transportation for this region. We will find many types of Himalayan trees and wildlife in this region. We can see Chir pine, Blue pine, Juniper, different types of rhododendron and many kinds of herbs and flowers. We may well have sightings of spectacular birds like the Impheyan Pheasant (national bird of Nepal), Crimson-horned Pheasant, Golden Eagle etc. and animals like musk deer (rare animal in the world) and Himalayan Tahr (a large mountain ungulate, and others.
The Everest region is the home of the Sherpa people and is geographically unique. We will pass the many Sherpa villages where we will get the opportunity to learn their daily activities, people and culture. In this trip we will see Buddhist monuments, prayer flags, Stupas, Chortens, Monasteries, temples, prayer wheels and memorial places along the way. Merging together with the natural beauty of the Himalayas and cultural ethos of the local Sherpa community, this trek creates a lifetime of unforgettable memories.

Une belle aventure
On a fait deux trecks avec Rai, l’un jusque Poon hill et l’autre de Luckla à Namche Bazar. Rai parle bien l’anglais, s’adapte à la vitesse de marche du groupe et en général c’est quelqu’un de très agréable et sympathique. Si je retourne au Népal je reprendrai de suite de nouveau Rai.
En plus de ca c’est un excellent joueur, on a passé quelques soirées à jouer aux cartes.
Merci poir cette belle aventure !
