How many meters above sea level is Everest Base Camp?

Everest base camp is 5200 meters above sea level.

Mount Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world, and its altitude is naturally high. Even on this mountain, there are still people bravely climbing it, and China even set up the Everest base camp on it. Everest base camp is still some distance from the summit. Dongpo Base Camp is located in Gamagou, Qudang Township, Dingri County, with an altitude of 5,200 meters and a linear distance of about 19 kilometers from the summit of Mount Everest.

Mount Qomolangma is located on the Sino-Nepalese border in the middle of the Himalayas, and the Dongpo base camp is located in Gamagou, Qudang Township, just south of Dingri County, Shigatse Prefecture, Tibet. It is not difficult to find a ride from Shigatse to Lazi County until the new date, but the probability of taking a ride from the remaining 100 km to the base camp is quite low. It is recommended to charter a car from Lhasa or Shigatse.

Matters needing attention in going to Everest base camp

There is no shuttle bus to Mount Everest in Lhasa, so it is more convenient to charter a car from Lhasa or join a pure Mount Everest tour group. If you charter a bus to Everest, try not to sit too crowded, the distance is far, and some sections are not easy to walk. Remember to bring your border card when you go to Everest. Everest base camp has a high altitude and cold weather. Remember to do a good job of resisting high altitude, cold and warmth before departure.

Due to the limitation of conditions, the diet in Everest Base Camp is relatively simple, with little selectivity and much higher price, and the rice there is difficult to cook. In case you are not used to the food there, remember to bring some food, such as chocolate, compressed biscuits, red bull, especially friends who drive, which are tired and can resist fatigue.
