Route Map

Compressed but complete. Two acclimatisation days kept in, no safety corners cut. The minimum responsible EBC itinerary.

Every overnight stop on the Everest Base Camp Trek, in order, with real GPS coordinates. Drag to pan, scroll to zoom, and use the layers control in the top-right corner to switch between street, satellite, and topographic terrain views.

Elevation Profile

Elevation in metres for each day of the Everest Base Camp Trek. The golden rule above 3,000 m is no more than 300-500 m of net gain per day, visible here as the slope between points.
