Everest Base Camp - Could I do that?

Sun, 23 Jan 2022 13:13:27 GMT

Is the Everest Base Camp trek achievable for me?

The infamous Everest Base Camp Trek is a very popular challenge for individuals, groups and charity organisations. Many people have considered taking part in this challenge but decide against it either through fear of not knowing what the trek entails or not believing that they can complete it successfully. We want to give you an insight into the trek and overall trip, allaying some fears and give you a feel for what to expect.

From landing in Kathmandu, Nepal you will be embraced into the Nepalese culture and made to feel very welcome by the local people, experiencing the sights and sounds of this bustling vast city. Usually after an overnight stay in Kathmandu we depart, heading to the airport for a short half hour plane journey to Lukla, one of the highest airports in the world nestled amongst the stunning Himalayan mountain range. This is a truly breathtaking experience in itself as you catch glimpses of the peak of Mount Everest and much more.

Upon landing at Lukla our groups meet up with the best Himalayan mountain guides and team of Sherpas who, together with our own UK Mountain Leaders, are with you every step of the way. You are in very safe hands in terms of walking safety, weather conditions, clothing advice, food and drink, plus any medical or first aid needs.

The average Everest Base Camp treks can be between 10 to 15 days long, tailored to each particular group. Some days are longer than others in terms of the amount of trekking. So for example, some days could be 8 hours of trekking (4 hours am/4 hours pm) but then there are slightly shorter days and a few days built in for the purpose of acclimatisation. During these days the idea is to allow people to adjust to higher altitude levels, walk to a higher altitude then walk back down slightly to a lower altitude and remain there over night. This is a method used to help the human body adjust to the increased altitude safely.

Each night the accommodation is a Nepalese Tea House. Don't be fooled by the name, these aren't luxurious English tearooms! However, they provide warmth, shelter, cooked meals, drinks and snacks for the night together with twin rooms ready for you to roll out your sleeping bag and climb into bed for some much earned and much needed rest. Nights on the trek are cold. They become extremely cold the higher up you get and the closer to Everest Base Camp you get. However, with the help of a 4 season sleeping bag and thermal layers you can genuinely feel very warm and cosy at night.

The views are spectacular throughout the trek, whichever way you turn - but keep an eye on the path for any yaks or mules, they don't take any prisoners! Along the way you encounter small villages and dwellings were you can get a glimpse of Nepalese mountain life. A highlight is a visit to the Tengboche Monastery where the monks welcome visitors into their monastery at certain times each day to listen to their chants and prayers. This is an experience not to be missed.

This isn't an easy trek, these challenges never are and shouldn't be! However, with a suitable level of fitness and health, the correct preparation, a strong determination and the camaraderie of your trekking group around you it is entirely possible. You can do it!

This trek is often rightly described as "life-changing". It is, in a very positive way. After the days of hiking up and down the vast valleys of the Himalayas, crossing the fast flowing mountain streams over the magnificent rope bridges, encountering the villagers, the animals of the mountains and taking in the magnificent views of famous mountains like Lhotse, Makulu and Kala Patthar, you reach the wonder of Everest Base Camp. It is joyous occasion, even for your fatigued body and mind. it make every single step worth it to have reached base camp at the highest mountain in the world. You are literally almost on top of the world!

From Everest Base Camp the trek heads back to Lukla Airport over a few days followed by a plane back to Kathmandu. There is plenty to do in Kathmandu over the next couple of days before flying home. Some people choose to rest and recuperate at the hotel. others head out into the city to visit the markets, shops, restaurants, bars, temples etc. There is a wide range of things to see and do. A traditional Nepalese evening with food, drink, music and dancing is popular.

How fit do I have to be to trek to Everest Base Camp?

You obviously need to have a good level of fitness and be well prepared for this trek. The important thing is to prepare for a number of continuous days of walking. It isn't a race, it is a steady day of walking, each day of the trek. We advise getting out and walking simply as much as you can. Ideally you need to build some hills and mountains into you training regime too so that your legs and body are used to inclines. We can help you to prepare.

Will I get altitude sickness?

Altitude sickness is a concern for a lot of people. They hear about it affecting people on mountains but don't really know too much about it in truth. The answer to this question is that we don't know. Anybody can suffer from altitude sickness, no matter how fit you are. However, there are ways and means of reducing the possibility of it. As mentioned above, certain days of the trek will be spent acclimatising so staying at the same accommodation and walking to a higher level that day before descending again to sleep. The "walk high, sleep low" method is popular and successful. Some people choose to take altitude sickness tablets. Again, another proven helpful tool to guard against altitude sickness. Your GP or pharmacy can advise on this. There are also altitude chambers around the UK where you can go and get your body accustomed to the impact of altitude before you leave for Nepal. We can point you in the right direction for altitude chamber sessions.

Will I need to buy a lot of expensive clothing and equipment?

The simple answer is - No. You will definitely need to take a decent rucksack, a larger holdall, 4 season sleeping bag, worn-in good quality walking boots, thermal layers, fleece(s), a good warm coat, waterproofs, gloves, hat and good walking socks, plus a few other bits and bobs. However, they don't need to be top of the range expensive items of clothing. There are plenty of retailers out there that sell these items of clothing at a reasonable price. Again, we can advise with this.

What will I eat and drink?

All the main meals are included in the trek - breakfast, lunch and dinner. At breakfast food ranges from eggs, to porridge and pancakes. During the rest of the day it varies from curries to pizzas, noodles to soup. There are also opportunities to buy snacks such as chocolate bars and crisps. You are encouraged to drink the likes of ginger and lemon tea to help with the increase in altitude but coffee, other teas and soft drinks are available. However, it is imperative to drink a lot of water and to keep very hydrated. You will be trekking with at least 2-3 litres of water in your rucksack during the day.

Will my guides be experienced?

Yes! On our challenges you will be accompanied by at least 1 of our Mountain Leaders (dependent on group size) so you can sit back on the planes and coaches as our staff take charge and help you to get from A to B. Once in the Himalayas we join up with our Nepalese guides. We use the very best guides in the Himalayas so you can be rest assured that you are in very safe hands. We will also have a team of Sherpas carrying your belongings (apart from your day rucksack) so you don't have to worry about that. It will all be at the next teahouse along, ready and waiting for you upon your arrival.

These are just a few popular questions that potential trekkers ask but we are always happy to answer any other queries. Just email us: info@conquerhiking.com.

We hope this has given you a flavour of what to expect on the Everest Base Camp trek. If you have read through this blog and would like more information on this challenge then please send us an email (info@conquerhiking.com) or send us a message through our social media channels (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram).

Charity of the Year 2021

Tue, 16 Feb 2021 09:48:51 GMT

At Conquer Hiking and Trekking we pride ourselves on organising and facilitating a range of walks and challenging events for all age groups and abilities. It is important to get people enjoying the great outdoors across the UK and beyond for both their physical and mental well-being.

We also work alongside various charities and other not-for-profit organisations, understanding just how vital fundraising is to them and their beneficiaries, even more so during these recent challenging times.

Each year we aim to give something back to a handful of charities from the entry fees to our various walks and events. A minimum donation of 10% of each entry fee from all of our public walks is donated to our chosen charity. We also support other charities with donations from other walks and events held throughout the year.

We are very pleased to announce that in 2021 our nominated charity and recipient of the public walk donations will be The Steve Prescott Foundation.

The Steve Prescott Foundation (SPF) is the very proud legacy of Steve Prescott MBE. Steve was diagnosed with a rare abdominal cancer pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) in 2006. Steve was a former professional rugby league international who undertook many challenges during his battle with cancer. He set up the SPF in 2007 and is the inspiration to people who support his chosen charities. He passed away in 2013 following pioneering multi visceral transplant surgery.

The donations to the SPF go to support The Christie Hospital in Manchester and the Rugby League Benevolent Fund.

To find out more about The Steve Prescott Foundation please visit their Facebook page or have a look at their website: www.steveprescottfoundation.co.uk.

Please keep an eye on our website, www.conquerhiking.com, and like/follow our Facebook page www.facebook.com/Conquerhiking, for news on all upcoming walks and events in 2021/2022. There are a few walks already lined up and open for general registration. We will be adding plenty of walks and events to the calendar throughout the year as and when the current restrictions are eased and lifted.

We are also encouraging individuals, groups and organisations to get in touch with us during the lockdown period to discuss how we can help them in organising a bespoke event. Together we can lay the groundwork now and put plans in place to enable your event to be ready to go once the restrictions are lifted. If you would like our help, experience and assistance in planning your walk or challenge then get in touch with your ideas by emailing info@conquerhiking.com and we can put a plan in place.

Old paths, new adventures - An introduction to our walks

Sat, 23 May 2020 13:41:14 GMT

Discovering the great outdoors with Conquer

Are you thinking of joining us on one or more of our hikes, treks or challenges? Are you looking to improve your physical and mental well-being? Are you looking to get into training for an upcoming challenge?

Whatever your reason or motivitation, we'd like to tell you a bit more about our hikes, who can join us, how you can join in and what clothing you will need.

Who can participate in Conquer Hiking and Trekking's walks?

The short answer is...Anyone!

We have different types of hikes and treks to cater for absolute beginners through to seasoned mountain climbers. Many of our hikes are dog-friendly and some are even pub-friendly with the chance to re-hydrate at the end of a hard yet enjoyable walk or enjoy a snack or meal in nearby coffee shops. You will find that most of our hikes take a circular route and therefore we will finish back at the starting point enabling you to find your transport easily to get home again.

Please do contact us if you would like to discuss our hikes and if you have any queries we can help you to select an appropriate hike for your needs and ability.

People come along for lots of different reasons. Some people are looking for an occasional guided hike across the Great British landscape, some to enjoy socialising with other walkers, some for general health and fitness and others to prepare for greater challenges ahead.

H ow can you get involved?

All of our advertised hikes are open to the general public on a first-come, first -served basis. If you see an advertised hike, trek or challenge event on our website or social media pages then please contact us (either via email or social media) to register your interest and we will email a registration form for you to complete. You don't need a membership as each event has a one-off payment (detailed on individual event advert). We will then let you know where to meet for the hike (usually the starting point), the start time and an approximate finish time.

For each trek we will guide you through some wonderful rural landscapes, walking at a suitable pace for the group and taking breaks at appropriate stages. Most importantly we will allow you to get as much enjoyment as possible from the walks and you will have ample opportunity to take in some wonderful views as we go along.

If you would like to put forward suggestions for future hikes and treks, we are always open to ideas and suggestions to please get in touch and speak to us.

We also arrange special events and challenges for groups, charities and organisations such as - The Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge, The National 3 Peaks Challenge, weekend treks and bootcamps, plus treks on and around some of the great mountains of the world. Again, get in touch with us for further information if you are looking for the trip and challenge of a lifetime.

What gear will I need to join Conquer's hikes?

Please be assured, you do not need the latest and greatest in outdoor pursuits clothing! It is not a fashion show and you will not be judged on your attire.

We will advise on a 'kit list' for each event when we send a registration form out. However, certainly one of the most important pieces of clothing is a comfortable pair of walking boots. Then for standard hikes we would advise you to bring a back pack or ruck sack (to carry food/drink, layers of clothing), waterproofs, warm hat, gloves, walking socks, suitable coat, layers for under coats, long pants, sunglasses and sunscreen. You may also find walking poles helpful but these can be inexpensive and we can advise you further if required.

We find that most people, even beginners, already have the majority of this clothing in their wardrobes. If you need any advice on clothing or equipment please let us know.

We would advise you to bring a spare set of clothes along with you as we cannot guarantee great weather on every hike, especially on higher ground!

We always advise participants to wear a smile! Although many of our hikes and treks are challenging, it is still important to get some enjoyment out of it and to have a laugh and a smile along the way.

Are the hikes safe?

Each of our hikes is staffed accordingly, dependant on the number of participants. You will always be within earshot of a member of the Conquer team should you require assistance and we will be walking with you throughout the course of the hike, checking on your well-being and on hand to answer any queries that you may have.

The Conquer team will be ready to deal with all eventualities. With years of experience in the hills, mountains and landscapes of the UK and beyond, plus full qualification in first-aid, we will guide you through a safe, enjoyable hike. If a participant needs to curtail their hike for any reason, we can deal with this safely and enable the rest of the group to continue on.

Any other questions?

We hope this blog has answered a few questions about us and our events. If you do have any queries then we would love to hear from you so we can provide a response.

You can contact us via email (info@conquerhiking.com), by phone (07841 333804) or via Facebook and Messenger.

We look forward to welcoming you on our walks and events later this year and we hope to make hiking and trekking your 'new normal' after the COVID-19 restrictions have been lifted.

Until then, stay safe.

The Conquer team
