About Trip
Ama Dablam base camp trek is a new trekking package in the Everest region. It is more sort of an offbeat trek, however doable for beginner trekkers. The Ama Dablam base camp trail has two major steep, trodden sections- one when you'll approach Namche Bazaar (3,441 m), and another steep section goes from Pangboche (3,930 m) to the Ama Dablam base camp (4,600 m).
The Ama Dablam base camp trekking leads to the lap of Mount Ama Dablam. It is a 13 days program that lets you explore the ancient monuments in Kathmandu before the adventurous treks begin in the eastern Himalayan mountains in Nepal. The trek is very adventurous and lets you explore the Sherpa lifestyle & witness jaw-dropping mountain views.
The Ama Dablam base camp trek route is a fantastic alternative to the very famous Everest base camp trek. Unlike the EBC trek, the Ama Dablam base camp trek for 13 days does not go above 5,000 meters. The trail is also less steep. You can also combine the Ama Dablam base camp trek with the Everest base camp trek with us or add a helicopter return at the end of the trek.
Mount Ama Dablam is situated 6,812 meters above sea level. It is one of the very technically difficult mountains to climb in the Himalayas. However, trekking to the base camp of Mount Ama Dablam is not challenging at all. With our strong support, you can make it to the Ama Dablam Base Camp safely and without any hassle.
The word Ama Dablam has a beautiful meaning behind it, which means Mother's Necklace. Ama is a Nepali word for mother, whereas Dablam means a unique piece of traditional jewellery worn by Sherpa women. The hanging glacier from the mountain resembles Dablam. Similarly, the perspective of the mountain, when seen from the Tengboche village, is described as a mother's hand protecting her child on each side.
Quite interesting right? Well, what is more, interesting is the journey itself. Apart from the adventure, if we take the cultural experience and intimate interactions with the locals into consideration, the Ama Dablam Base Camp trek in Nepal lets you forget your worries, be grateful for what you have, and teach you to be humble. You will learn about the importance of simple living while unwinding and rejuvenating.
