🇳🇵 . Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Lukla 🇳🇵
.
Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Lukla to Phakding.
.
👍🏼 यह फकडिंग के लिए एक बहुत अच्छा सौम्य ट्रेक है।हिमाचल जैसा लगता है।
.
📍 Trek: Lukla (2840m) to Phakding (2610m). 
Accommodation: Hotel Sherpa Phakding (2610m)
Duration: 3.5 hours
Distance: 5.1 mile (8.2kms)
Net elevation gain/loss: -204m
.
🏚 The town of Lukla is centred around a long street with shops selling souvenirs and outdoor gear. At the end is the Pasang Lhamu Gate with a statue of Pasang Lhamu, who was the first Nepalese woman to summit Mt. Everest. After this comes the Khumbu Pasanglhamu Rural Municipality Office to purchase the first of two regional trekking permits.
.
🎟  The permit fee is 2000NPR (£12.80) if not part of an included package.
.
🚶‍♂️ The trek from Lukla to Phakding takes you through fantastic scenery. Enjoy the verdant pine trees and wildlife of the national park with glimpses of the mountains ahead. The trail is a mix of dirt and some rocky sections, passing through small local villages. 
.
🌉  A few suspension bridges occasionally appear, with more to come in the following days. Approaching Phakding, there are views of the Dhudh Kosi River, the source of which is Gokyo Lake.
.
🍲 The Everest Summiter Lodge (2600m) makes a good lunch stop.
.
💷  Daily food and drink costs are around £15 at the low end and £25 at the upper end. Lunch costs around 550NPR (£3.52) and tea/coffee 150NPR (£0.96).

🇳🇵 . Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Fly fr 🇳🇵
.
Day 5 - Everest Base Camp Trek - Fly from Kathmandu (KTM) to Lukla (LUA).
.
👍🏼 यह उड़ान खतरनाक है लेकिन मजेदार भी है। दिल्ली से काठमांडू और फिर लुक्ला के लिए उड़ान भरें।
.
📍Officially known as Tenzing-Hillary Airport, Nepal's busiest domestic hub. At 2846m (9337ft), the short runway is only 527m (1729ft) with a 12% gradient which makes landing risky. 
.
✈️ Considered the most dangerous airport in the world, flight schedules are determined by the weather in both Kathmandu and Lukla. With no fixed seating, sit on the left-hand side approaching Lukla for the best views of the Himalayas and the opposite side when leaving Lukla. Over 60 flights per day operate during the peak trekking season, with an average flight time of around 35 minutes.
.
🚁 The helicopter company @air_dynasty_heli offers services to and from Lukla, including emergency evacuations and charter flights.
.
👨‍✈️ Only experienced pilots who have completed over 100 short takeoff and landing missions can operate here. The hair-raising approach leaves no margin for error. Airline services include @nepalairlinesra @yetiairlines 
.
⛔️ Accidents and incidents do occur, so safety is paramount.
.
🧳 Due to the flight, rules on baggage weight are strict. Checked-in luggage is a maximum of 10kg, and carry on is 5kg. Extra weight is chargeable but not advised.
.
Fun fact: Only radio communication is used for landings and take-offs with no air navigation or radar system.
