Very few have stood on Everest’s daunting summit, yet trekking to its flanks is still an adventure of the highest sort. You'll trek through lively Sherpa villages, and take an optional hike to the 18,000-foot summit of Kala Patar for superlative views of the surrounding Himalayan giants, including Everest. No place is more strongly associated with MTS than Nepal, since it is here that we laid the cornerstone of our passion for adventure in the late 1960s by organizing the first commercial treks in the country.
