K2 Base Camp Trek - Best Trekking Trail of Karakoram

The Trekking choice is completely yours, based upon what type of trekking, what you want to achieve and what kind of experience you want to get from the trip. Do you want to reach the base of the gigantic Himalayan range? Do you want to trek to the vintage viewpoint of the Mt. Everest and other mountain peaks? Do you want to pass through the highest passes of the Everest Region? Do you want to pass through the traditional villages with unique cultures? Or do you want to just vanish in the serenity of the nature of the Himalayas to be free from your hectic life schedule? The other consideration is the length of the trek and the season you like to trek. For example, the higher passes often close due to heavy snowfall from December to February but the lower elevation treks like the Annapurna Poon Hill, Everest View Trek, etc. are open 12-months round. A brief introduction to the different types of treks is listed for your convenience to choose the trek. We are ever ready to make and arrange the best itinerary for your trips, a memorable and fascinating one. Solo travelers or traveling with friends are heartily welcome to give us the opportunity to serve you the fullest for making your dream come true. Contact us for more information on setting your own trekking itinerary.

For your convenience, our trekking trips are graded as ‘Easy’, ‘Moderate’ or ‘Strenuous’. The grading is done on the basis of the duration of the trip, altitude, and number of hours to trek per day.

EASY – Trekking holidays are scheduled to be free from the hassle of the busy life. For easy trekking trips, you do not need to have the high level of physical endurance but the most important attributes for easy trekking trips are an open and peaceful mind, a sense of humor, adaptability and the optimism in life. These factors affect the fluency of the trek.

MODERATE - A reasonable fitness level and good health, please expect to walk for up to 4 hours at a time on steep paths, often with sections of large uphill and downhill. You should be exercising a few times a week for this trip to get maximum enjoyment out of the trip. The altitude can go up high to 4500 m with the side trips to higher altitude too. 

STRENUOUS – Trekking for at least 6 hours every day often over the Rocky Mountains and plain terrain at high altitude is really a tedious job. You will have to be physically fit and healthy with regular exercise habits in the week to increase the endurance levels. Any training done on hills, for instance, walking, cycling, running, hiking, etc. is usually beneficial.

Kilimanjaro trek is one of the toughest treks in the world. But if we see the success rate, it can be considered a difficult trek. If we compare Kilimanjaro Trek to Everest Base Camp Trek and K2 Base Camp Trek, it comes in between. Kilimanjaro Trek is more difficult than Everest Base Camp Trek Nepal and easier than K2 Base Camp Trek in Pakistan.

Machame Route to the summit of Kilimanjaro is the most popular route. The amazing views of nature, and diverse topography from deserts to rainforest makes Machame Route the most popular and shortest one. The success rate of the summit and the medium length of days and itinerary attracts many many tourists which makes this overcrowded route too.

August September and October month is the best month for Kilimanjaro Trek. But few of the trekking company also offers summit and climbing even in October and November. August - October is busier then compare to October-November.

On another side of the year, December end to March is also the good time to climb Kilimanjaro. But nature will be more dry but clean.

In short you need a good travel insurance. Your travel or medical insurance must cover the medical issue, high altitude sickness, possible accidents and injury and emergency evacuation. We have to say this for safety precaution. Trekking Trail Nepal having ZERO RESCUE record with 100% success rate, you can join Kilimanjaro Trek with us.
