Day 8…we did it! On our eighth day of our charity challenge, it was an early start at 5.45am to make our final trek from Lebouce to Base Camp Everest. After hiking for 8 – 10 hours a day for the past week, we were determined to reach our final destination.

Day 7…that was tough!
On the seventh day of our trek to Base Camp, we embarked on the most challenging hike from Debouce to Lebouce. Breathing is becoming increasingly laboured as the air continues to thin. The journey however, was filled with more stunning views of the Himalayas and encounters with friendly locals and fellow hikers.

Day 6 of our Everest Base Camp trek was an acclimatisation day, which meant that we had to spend some time at a higher altitude to help our bodies acclimatise to the lower oxygen levels. We left Debuche early this morning and started trekking up towards a higher altitude. The trek was challenging, but the views were stunning. We could see the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas in the distance, and the valley below us looked like a painting.

Day 5 of our Everest base camp trek has been an exciting one. We left Debuche after breakfast and made our way to Dingboche. We had a relatively good night’s sleep, which was a refreshing change from the previous nights. The weather has been on our side once again, and there were very little hold-ups on the route.

Day 4 of the Everest Base Camp trek was the most challenging day thus far. After a restful night in Namche Bazar, we set off early this morning towards our destination for the day, Deboche. The morning was relatively straightforward, with a gradual ascent through the lush green forests of the Khumbu region. The scenery was breath-taking, and the fresh mountain air invigorated us for the day ahead.

After two days of trekking, my body was starting to get used to the altitude, but it was important to take a day to acclimatise to the increasing altitude. We started our ascent early in the morning, and the views were breath-taking.
