- Pt. 2: Lukla to Namche Bazaar | Hiking the EVEREST BASE CAMP TREK | EBC 2022 // THIS is the story of how I said “Yes” to my very first international trek, hiking up to Everest Base Camp in Nepal.
Today was a LONG DAY and the OFFICIAL start of our trek up to Everest Base Camp.
From Lukla to Namche Bazaar, the elevation was:
2,845 meters to 3,440 meters
9,333 feet to 11,286 feet
Along the way, I had my first of many Ginger Lemon Honey Teas and Garlic Soups. We spun numerous prayer wheels, crossed over a bunch of bridges, saw a ton of different animals, hiked through the Sagarmatha National Park and hiked up the infamous Namche Hill in the rain, mud and dark.

In this video, you'll meet our whole, entire EBC trail family including our wonderful guide, Prakash AND our incredible Sherpas: Min, Sumon and Bupol. Today, we hiked from Lukla to Namche Bazaar, which was a BIG day filled with a fair amount of mileage, animals, bridges, yummy food and so much beautiful scenery. Nepal is such a magical place!
Do your best god bless everyone😊😊jaya nepal and thankyou for beautiful video
(Min, Suman and Bhupal) Correction
I don’t think they are Sherpas. Sherpas are one of the ethnicity/castes of Nepal who live in that region along with other ethnic people aswell. Sherpa word refers to people living in the east in Tibetan language but the West has a misunderstanding of calling everyone sherpa who carries load, do mountain guide etc which is not true.
@@mingmarlama7987 I'm glad you pointed this out because I'm still not 100% about this one myself. When I did the research, I thought our guys (Min, Bupol and Sumon) were porters, but when I asked out guide, he told me that they were Sherpas. Porter or Sherpa title aside, "our guys" (which we lovingly referred to them as along our trek) were absolutely AMAZING and an important part of our EBC Trek family. We couldn't and wouldn't wanted to have done this trek without Prakash, Min, Bupol or Sumon.
Welcome to the roof of the world (Nepal)🇳🇵🙏💗
Thank you!

This video series features my experience of being in Nepal with my friends and our wonderful guide, Prakash and I love using music that fits the mood of what we were all experiencing while we were out there. If you're looking for a "long quiet video" then I know there are other video creators on RUclips who create what you might be looking for. :)

There you go, you meet the Yak 😁
I loved seeing all of the free roaming yaks!!
Amazing video! Your constant smile is testament to the fact that you are having such a great time! I'm so glad you are. That part of the world is awesome. I had visited Kathmandu and other neighboring cities years ago. Your videos bring back so many memories. And the momos were delish! Do they still make them with pork? They're great on a cold day! Have fun and stay safe!
I love this! I couldn’t stop smiling during our entire trek, even when it got tougher up at the higher elevation. It was all just so magical. Can’t remember if I saw pork momo, but I did have plenty of the chicken and veggie momo. Yummy!!!
Another gem dropped. Love it.
Thank you!
😮❤❤

Loved to see ur vlog.
Glad you’re enjoying this video series. It’s been a lot of fun putting these videos together. 😀
❤❤❤
How was namche hill? Great video btw! I'm going next week solo trip..
The Namche Hill was tough! I put the camera away by this point because the rain got heavier, the trail was super muddy, it was getting dark and I was exhausted from a very long day. I brought it back out again once I had showered and we were having tea and dinner at the teahouse. Have a great trip!
We are about to do this trek in 3 weeks. So looking forward to it.
How exciting!! Three weeks will be here sooner than you know it. Hope you have an amazing trip!
loving it ❤ ❤ ❤
Glad you’re enjoying this video series. Part 3 goes live tomorrow! 🤩
Kathleen, what a wonderful opportunity you had to visit Nepal and do that trek! Excited to see the rest of your story! Curious what the large bundles were that several people you passed were carrying.
Glad you’re enjoying this series! These videos have been so fun to put together. The large bundles were anything from supplies, food or gear to empty plastic bottles.
wow ❤️👏
Glad you enjoyed the video! 😀
Beautiful video
Thank you! 😀
Thank you so much 🙏 mam for exploring the beautiful mountain range of Nepal & showing to the world through your vlog. We hope coming future you will explore many more wonderful
places of Nepal. You earn 1 sub☺️🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Already looking forward to coming back to Nepal for another trek. ❤️
❤️🇳🇵
😀
Namche Hill is a notoriously tough climb for a little more than 2 hours nonstop. I don’t see any trekker takes the time to stop and videotape Namche Hill but focus on their climb.
By the time we reached Namche Hill, it was pouring rain, getting dark and we were exhausted. I didn’t bring my camera out much towards the end of the day, until we were rested up at the teahouse.
@@TheHungryHiker It is a tough climb.
@@GODISMYSTERIOUS 100%
welcome to nepal waiting for nex video
Thank you! Part 3 comes out this Sunday! 😀
I love Nepal and nepalese people
Me too!
8:45 Yak parking 🤣
Yup! I thought that was so incredibly cute!!
We’re you carrying all of your things on your back? It seems like some of your companions had day packs while others had much larger multi day backpacks.
Everyone in our group carried day packs with everything we'd need throughout the day. Our amazing Sherpas (Min, Bupol and Sumon) covered our duffel bags to each of the teahouses we stayed at. Our duffel bags had all of the things we'd need overnight while staying in each of the teahouses. There were people along the trek who were carrying ALL of their gear, which meant they were carrying larger packs, but they weren't with us.
eager to the see the rest of the videos....
Glad you're enjoying this video series. Part 3 comes out this Sunday!
@@TheHungryHiker No doubt. waiting for the P-3.
How are the bathroom / toilet situation along the hike till the end? Are there always clean toilet and water available?
Great question and this is something I will cover in detail in a future video. Along our trek, we had flushing toilets in our teahouses up until Lobuche. From there, the bathrooms consisted of a toilet with a bucket of water. The water would acted as the "flushing" mechanism for the toilet. The bathrooms along our trek were always been, but not necessarily in the rooms we stayed in. As for drinking water, even though I brought a SteriPEN to treat water, we ended up buying and drinking bottled water during our entire trip, both along the trek and in Kathmandu.
How many hours for you to walked from where your plane landed to Namche Bazaar please?🙏
It took us all day to get to Namche Bazaar once our plane landed in Lukla. I have no idea exactly how many hours it took us, but we did get into our teahouse well after dark.
went here in 2019
I can't wait to come back to this area again!
Finally...
Annnnd, Part 3 goes live this Sunday!
@@TheHungryHiker ..Sunday???? OK
make video a bit longer 20-25 min
and we also want to hear the real conversation and you briefing your commentary and you team thoughts...make it more interesting
@@prabinbaral5471 I'll take that into consideration. Thanks!
Nice vlog 👍✌️
Thanks ✌️
❤❤❤❤ love from nepal ❤️❤️❤️🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!!
I'm waiting..
If you’re waiting for Part 3, it goes live this Sunday!
Will you come again to Nepal
I will definitely return back to Nepal for another trek :)
How long did the hike from Lukla to Namche take?
We hiked this section on the first day of our trek. We left Lukla at 11am and got to Namche after 7pm. It was a LONG day.
Love prom pokhara
Thank you!
Thanks for exploring beautiful khumbu region...please note that we don't refer someone carrying your bagpacks as sherpas.Sherpas are an ethnic group of people living scattered mostly in the north eastern part of the country..Those gentlemen helping with your bagpacks are from lower valley of khumbu region probaby Rais another ethnic group
Please excuse my mistake. When I asked our guide if our guys were porters or Sherpas, he told me that Min, Bupol and Sumon were Sherpas. Apparently I’m not the only one who’s made this mistake. Titles and names aside, Min, Bupol and Sumon were such important and incredible members of our EBC trekking family. ❤️
I recently did this solo, it took me maybe 3-4 days to start understanding how to walk at altitude. Had to break the habit of going (or trying) to hike too fast.
Why did you choose to hike to Namche on the first day? That’s a very long day, I would not want to be ascending Namche hill in dark, even descending it is hairy especially with the mud.
Slowing down our hiking pace was a constant challenge out there. Thankfully we had a wonderful guide (Prakash) to help guide us and remind us to slow down our pace so that we didn't overexert ourself when we were hiking at the higher altitudes. Hiking to Namche from Lukla was always part of our plan. Overall, our trek up to EBC was only 5 days with a helicopter ride back to Lukla. We knew coming into this that the hike out of Lukla was going to be a big day.
Question : do you think a portable oxigen concentrator could help to alleviate the high altitude sickness ?
I don't have any experience with using a portable oxygen concentrator so I can't say for sure if that would have been helpful or not.
@@TheHungryHiker thank you .
❤️🙏
Thank you!
Can a beginner also do this also do you suggest a solo climb ?
This trek could be for all different experience levels, but you’ll need to train for it. As for doing this solo, Nepal just passed legislation last year making it mandatory that every foreign traveler have a local guide for this trek. So I wouldn’t suggest doing this trek solo since it’s now considered illegal.
nepal🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵
Nepal is such a magical place!
🙏🥶🇳🇵
Namaste! We were lucky in that the weather didn't really get too cold until we reached over 15,000 feet. Up until that point, I was able to hike in shorts comfortably during the day. After 15,000 feet, I switched to pants and warmer layers. Luckily, we didn't run into any snow along the way. Just a bit of rain and clouds.
@@TheHungryHiker U guys are doing great.I hope u guys are Enjoying the Nepalese Himalayas beautiful vibes..🇳🇵🗻🗻
God bless u all🙏❤
Waiting for part 3....😍👍
Thank you! Part 3 goes live this Sunday!!
Thank you for nice compliment but I've a complaint, the vlog is too short. I expect at least 30+ minutes......
EXPECT??? Hahaha! Well, the good news is that there are 5 more videos in this series coming so stay tuned.
Why did you pick such sad music for parts 1 and 2?
That flight to Lukla was downright terrifying so I w as Ted the music to fit the mood that we were all experiencing.
Volg would be more better if you speak during hiking rather then just video. Cheers
We’ll, this is my story and I’ll tell/share it the way I want to: authentically from the heart.
Yes every one have their own way to present but I just give my suggestion so that your video will be more interesting and better but looks like you don’t like my suggestion.
Maybe more interesting for you. Based on how well this video is performing (it’s the highest watched/most engaged with video out of the last 10 videos I’ve posted on my channel), I’d say a huge majority of the viewers out there are enjoying the video just as it is. No need to change anything. Remember, what someone considers “better” is subjective. The metrics tell me everything I need to know. 😀
I also want to visit everest camp but i dont have money 😔
I get that. This trip wasn’t cheap, but was quite affordable and worth saving for.
Momo not Momos !! Cheers..
🙄
Great video. But sorry, it’s not Momos. It’s only momo.
Momos vs Momo = both are delicious!
voice over is badly needed in this video.
😂
