During this trip we provide you accommodation in  a top five star category hotel in Kathmandu and in the trek you will have a three star category hotel for accommodation.

Best Season for Everest Comfort Trek

Spring (March to May)and fall (September to November) are the best times to go on the Everest Comfort Trek. The weather is stable, the skies are clear, and the views of the mountains are amazing during these months. In the spring, the trail is lined with blooming rhododendron forests, and in the fall, the air is crisp and the views of the Himalayas are stunning.

In the winter (December to February), temperatures drop and snow falls at higher elevations, making trekking harder. In the summer (June to August), heavy rains make trails slippery.
