Silver Hut Expedition 50th anniversary trek

Would you like to visit the Himalayas but have a maximum of two weeks holiday time? This trek is designed for those who would like to see Everest and trek amongst the Himalayan Giants, but don't have time to go all the way to Everest Base Camp. The high point of this itinerary is Ama Dablam Base Camp (4,570m) - a wonderful grassy site nestled below one of the world's most iconic mountain profiles.

In November 2011, this trek will be two days longer, with a side trip to the village of Khumjung, and an extra day in Kathmandu - see details of the "Silver Hut Expedition" 50th anniversary trek... read more
