What's it like to travel alone in a snowy, remote area?

Solo Travel to the snowy and remote areas

By Manju MahatoPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

As a traveler, mountains, verdant forests, and less populated areas have always captivated me. It is one of my dreams to explore every location and the world's natural beauty. For me, the year 2022 was the best of my life. I decided to trek to Everest Base Camp this year. But the issue was: Can I do it by myself? Is it possible to do the entire journey alone to the mountain region?

Without thinking more, I went on this amazing trek. I finished a wonderful city tour in Kathmandu before beginning my climb. The experience was different on a day in Kathmandu. I had the opportunity to see numerous temples and World Heritage Sites. Pashupatinath, Swyambhunath, Kathmandu Dubar Square, and many other locations were among them. I also had a variety of flavorful and delicious Nepalese dishes. After a long day of touring, enjoying the evening with live music at the restaurant was pleasant.

I finished my day trip in Kathmandu and then began my incredible journey to Everest base camp. The beautiful green forest covered with red rhododendrons was so beautiful, along with the phenomenal mountain view at the back. The whole trekking route was vibrant and refreshing. I explored many famous places in the Everest region during my treks. I also got a chance to learn about the locals and their culture, traditions, and lifestyle. I also tasted the delicious local and traditional food, which is exceptional.

During the trek, I went to numerous well-known locations, like Namche Bazaar, the commercial center of the Everest region, and Lukla Airport, the deadliest airport in the world. Tengboche Monastery, one of the oldest monasteries, as well as other monasteries, including Dingboche and Pangboche, as well as shrines, and many others. The inhabitants of the area were really friendly and helpful. They provided us with delicious meals, and our interactions with them helped us understand their cultures, traditions, and way of life. We went to the monastery for prayers early in the morning and late in the evening when we were staying in Tengboche.

The magnificent view of majestic Mount Everest and its surrounding peaks was what greeted us when we first arrived in Kalapatthar on the main day. At that point, I understood that pursuing my dream of trekking to Everest Base Camp was worthwhile. I struggled to find the right words to describe how wonderful it was. We rarely experience the stunningly white mountains covered in snow, the bright sun, and the cold weather. The breathtaking view of Mount Everest, which occurred initially, was the best thing that has ever occurred. The second best thing is this Everest trek.

My dream was to go on this walk, and realizing that dream was the most incredible experience of my life. I was able to get over my fear of traveling alone because of it. Without a doubt, I would go on solo excursions again. We have all heard that happiness and travel go hand in hand, and this is actually true. Your achievement will provide you with happiness, health, and satisfaction, and help you overcome anxiety and fear. It was quite beneficial for me to complete this trek to Everest base camp.

Even though it was a solo trek for me, I can't thank Nepal Trek Adventure and Expedition enough for their assistance throughout the trek. As they are courteous to their clients and very professional in their work, I recommend this company to others. Additionally, their website offers all the important details on the Everest base camp trek. It was a great resource as it helped me get ready for this incredible adventure.

From my personal experience, if you have been dreaming about taking a trek through the Himalayas, then look no further than this all-inclusive Everest Base Camp trek from Nepal Trek Adventure.
