Everest Base Camp Trek in September

  September is regarded as one of the best months to trek to Everest Base Camp. September welcomes the number of tourists in Nepal from across the globe with amazing weather and focused visions.

The view of the Himalayas gets better with the climate. The warm and welcoming Sherpa’s and their beautiful heart taking smiles makes your journey more beautiful. The temperature during September is moderate in every elevation. The weather remains idle and there is very little chance of changing weather. The routes are of less pollution because the monsoon rain washed all the dust and pollution. The jaw-dropping views of the mountains look more stunning rather than any other season. The weather prediction in September can be trusted, but the prediction doesn’t always get right in off-seasons.  There are very less or no delays in Lukla flights during September. Everest Base Camp Trek in September gives you the best trekking experience. The Everest region receives very less rain during late September. The sky gets clear and the lush vegetation makes your trial wonderful. However, the trials get crowded with numbers of tourists as it is the best trekking season for EBC.

But, if you are an introvert you can choose less popular trekking routes like Jiri to Everest Base Camp Trek which has comparatively fewer tourists.
