More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of Kathmandu’s early light into a thin air that already tastes of stone and distant glaciers. After a sharp 30-minute flight to Lukla the valley opens like a map of ridgelines; rivers dare you across swinging suspension bridges and rhododendron forests give way to moraine and ice. By the third day the skyline is a hard-edged necklace of peaks—Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse—each one pushing the weather and your limits.
