Makalu Base Camp Trek

Trip Overview:

The Makalu Base Camp Trek is one of Nepal’s most remote and rewarding treks, leading adventurers to the base of Mount Makalu (8,485m) — the fifth highest mountain in the world. Located in Makalu Barun National Park, the trek offers dramatic contrasts in scenery, from lush lowland forests and terraced farmland to rugged alpine terrain and high Himalayan glaciers.

This off-the-beaten-path journey offers a true wilderness experience with less crowded trails, rich biodiversity, and close encounters with local Rai and Sherpa cultures. The highlight is reaching Makalu Base Camp (5,050m), surrounded by towering peaks like Everest, Lhotse, Baruntse, and Chamlang.

Ideal for experienced trekkers, this trek provides a unique adventure in one of Nepal’s most untouched mountain regions.

Highlights:

  • Reach the foot of Mount Makalu (8,485m) — the 5th highest mountain in the world
  • Trek through the untouched and remote Makalu Barun National Park
  • Explore diverse landscapes: subtropical forests, alpine meadows, and glacial valleys
  • Stunning views of Everest, Lhotse, Baruntse, Chamlang, and Makalu itself
  • Encounter local Rai, Limbu, and Sherpa communities
  • A quiet and less-traveled alternative to popular trekking routes
