The Everest Base Camp (EBC) Trek is a thrilling but tough journey that takes you to over 5,000 meters (16,500 feet) above sea level. It involves trekking for 5-7 hours daily on steep, uneven paths. While you don’t need to be a professional athlete, having good stamina, strong legs, and the ability to handle long hikes is key.
