The Goldilocks Month for Your Mount Everest Expedition
October is the most popular month for Everest trekking, and for good reason. The monsoon has cleared the air, and the weather is stable—perfect for seeing the Mount Everest summit in all its glory.
The dust levels are at their lowest in October. The views of Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam are HD-quality every single day. This is why photographers flock to the Everest Base Camp trail now.
While nights are cold, daytime trekking temperatures are perfect. You can hike in a T-shirt in the lower valleys, making the Mount Everest expedition approach much more enjoyable.
The teahouses are full of energy. You’ll meet explorers from every corner of the globe. The shared goal of reaching the Mount Everest summit region creates an incredible atmosphere.
If you don't mind the crowds, October offers the best conditions for a successful and beautiful Everest trekking experience.
