Everest Base Camp trek Day 7 follows Dave and Kim from Dingboche all the way to Lobuche, with amazing views and weather along the trail. This video shows the high Himalayan scenery as the trek pushes into its final stretch toward base camp. Filmed on the trail in Nepal in 2022.
Dingboche to Lobuche
After an acclimatization day in Dingboche, Day 7 is a full trekking day up the valley to Lobuche. The route climbs steadily into higher, harsher terrain where the air gets thinner and the landscape turns to rock and ice. Dave and Kim film the journey so viewers can see exactly what this section of the Everest trail looks like.
Amazing Views and Weather
Dave highlights that the views and weather had been amazing, a lucky break at this altitude where conditions can change fast. Clear skies on the upper trail mean the surrounding Himalayan peaks are on full display, and this episode is one of the most scenic in the whole trek series.
Approaching the Final Villages
Lobuche is one of the last overnight stops before Gorekshep and Everest Base Camp itself. By this point in the trek, every day is shaped by altitude, and the video shows the slower, deliberate pace that high Himalayan trekking demands. It is honest footage of what the final approach to base camp really feels like. Dave and Kim take it step by step, and the footage rewards anyone curious about trekking at this altitude.
