Nuptse (7,861m), and the captivating presence of the ridges of Mt. Ama Dablam (6,812m) - often referred to as the Matterhorn of the Himalayas.

Trekkers usually take a day to acclimatize before continuing their adventure, including a hike to Everest View Hotel (3,880m) for a breathtaking view of Everest and the surrounding peaks. The trek to Tengboche (3,860m) from Namche is a remarkable experience, offering stunning views of the Everest Ranges and Ama Dablam.
Continuing to Dingboche Village (4,410m), another acclimatization day allows trekkers to climb Nangkartshang Hill (5,083m) before heading to Lobuche (4,940m) via Thukla Pass (4,800m), a memorial site for climbers who perished in the Everest mountains.
