| Those who wish to follow in the footsteps of Tenzing and Hillary must do the Everest trek from Jiri. This is a much longer trek compared to the one that starts from Lukla. Jiri, an idyllic hill station east of Kathmandu is reached by local bus from the capital in 8-10 hours. The trek from Jiri to Lukla takes an average of seven days and is a good means of preparing for the Everest Base Camp trek. The highest elevation reached before Lukla is Lamjura pass (3,530 m). The trek passes through parts of Solukhumbu district that enables trekkers to observe the traditions and customs of the Himalayan region. The trail is well served with good teahouses and campsites. The stopovers along the trail are likely to be at the villages of Deurali, Kenja, Sete, Lamjura, Junbesi, Tragsindho, Khari Khola and Surkhe | |||
