Everest Base Camp trek Day 3 is the classic acclimatization hike from Namche Bazaar up to the Everest View Hotel, one of the highest placed hotels in the world. Dave and Kim share the climb and the panoramic Himalayan views from the top. A classic rest day done right on the way to base camp.
The Namche Acclimatization Hike
On Day 3, Dave and Kim hike above Namche Bazaar to the Everest View Hotel, then return to Namche. The episode records the acclimatization outing in their itinerary.
The Everest View Hotel
Perched on a ridge above Namche, the Everest View Hotel is famous for its panoramic terrace facing Mount Everest and the surrounding giants of the Khumbu. For many trekkers, this is the first clear look at Everest itself, and it is a highlight even for those who never plan to go higher. The hotel holds a reputation as one of the highest placed hotels anywhere in the world.
An Out-and-Back Day
The extra day gives this part of the series a different pace from a point-to-point trek: the family walks out from Namche, visits the hotel viewpoint and returns to the same base.
