 The Arun valley provides really superb views of both
Mt Everest and Makalu. It is located between the Sagarmatha
and Makalu-Barun National Parks. Trekking in this
valley provides an alternative approach to the Khumbu
region. We recommend this approach to those people
who have already been in the Everest region and want
to revisit Everest Base Camp (Kala Pattar) via a less
traveled route.
The trek requires stamina and fitness to fully appreciate
the beauty of the region. which provides some outstanding
mountain views. Commencing with a flight to Tumlingtar
to the East of Everest, the first week is spent trekking
through virgin territory into the Solu Khumbu region
before a push up on the main Everest trail to Kala
Pattar for tremendous close ups of Everest, Nuptse
and Lhotse along with many others before a journey
back to Lukla and a flight to Kathmandu.
