The trek is considered challenging and physically demanding due to the altitude and rugged terrain. It is recommended for individuals who are in good physical condition and have some prior hiking experience.
The best time to go on the trek is from September to November and from March to May. The weather is generally clear and stable during these months, providing good visibility of the mountains.
Accommodation during the trek is mainly in teahouses or lodges. These are simple, basic accommodations with shared bathrooms. Some teahouses may have electricity and hot water, but this is not guaranteed.
During the trek, you will have three meals per day: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Meals will be served at various teahouses and will include options such as pizza, noodles, dumplings, sandwiches, Dal Bhat, porridges, bakery items, coffee, and tea.

During peak travel seasons such as spring and pre-winter, Lukla flights may take off from Manthali Airport in Ramechap. This is done to avoid congestion at Kathmandu Airport. The Lukla airport is the busiest among the STOL runways operated from Kathmandu, and to avoid congestion at the airport and limit the load, all flights to Lukla may be redirected to Ramechap for smooth operation.
You should pack warm clothing, hiking boots, a sleeping bag, a down jacket, a waterproof jacket, a hat, gloves, a headlamp, a water bottle, a first aid kit, toiletries, and personal medications.
