Everest North - Advanced Base Camp Trek (Private Trip)
Altitude 6,340m Grade: T5
Everest North - Advanced Base Camp Trek (Private Trip)
The trek up to North Advanced Base Camp takes you far beyond the normal Base Camp trek, and offers the most spectacular views of Everest and its North Face.
Everest 2019 Trek & World Record Rugby Attempts
The North side of Everest is steeped in the history of the early attempts to climb Everest by George Mallory and his team. It forms a magnificent arena to stage the world's highest rugby matches! The "pitch" is sandwiched between Lhakpa Ri (7,045m)and Everest. The trek up to North Advanced Base Camp takes you far beyond the normal Base Camp trek, and offers the most spectacular views of Everest and its North Face. At this height, you will be just over one vertical mile directly below Everest's inspiring windswept summit.

Insurance
It is essential for a trip of this type that you are adequately insured. When researching insurance options, please ensure the policy covers you for the following:

- Repatriation
- The altitude that you are expected to attain
- The location especially when travelling to Antarctica
- Grade of trek/climb/expedition
- Medical cover
