Mount Everest Base Camp - Nepal

Adventurers flock to the world’s highest mountain above sea level, Mount Everest. Located on the border of Nepal, this infamous peak is considered one of the deadliest hiking and camping destinations in the world, but that has hardly deterred people from seeking the experience. Traveling to this region exposes you to risks such as freezing, frostbite, snow blindness, exhaustion, hypoxia, and hypothermia, not to mention the severe altitude sickness that has claimed lives in the past.

For those looking to attempt the climb, it is crucial to start training about a year before your intended visit, training for at least 5 days a week.
