The Everest Base Camp Trek is counted as one of the most difficult and challenging. Five people from Surat, one from Ahmedabad, and one from Pune were part of this adventurous trek. Jayesh Patel, Rajesh Mordia, Shailesh Savani, Shreyansh Shah, Smital Shah, and Janhvi Gohil, along with Dharmendra Savani, vice chairman of LP Savani Group, have successfully completed this adventurous camp.

Dharmendra Savani shared the experience of this journey. They all reached Ramachip by road from Kathmandu. From here, it was a flight to Lukla, and the distance was only about fifteen minutes. But the flight was delayed for hours due to bad weather. Finally, after hours of waiting, they were able to fly and reached Lukla in fifteen minutes. From here, their trekking journey to the base camp was to begin. It was already estimated that there would be many challenges. Finally, they all started the trek and continued on the inaccessible mountain roads. In 10 to 12 hours of trekking every day, they cover a distance of barely 10 to 12 km. After covering such a distance, staying overnight, and starting again in the morning, they thus reached the Everest base camp by completing a distance of 5364 meters and successfully completing a big adventure in life. Everyone completed the 5550-metre trek to Kalapatthar beyond the base camp. They mentioned while sharing their experience that this trip was and will remain an adventurous and unforgettable life experience for all of them.

Dharmendra Savani said that the goal of completing the trek to Everest Base Camp was set, but it was not easy to achieve. For this, they started practicing six months ago. Along with climbing and descending 200 floors every day, diet is also important during the journey, so as a result of healthy eating and rigorous practice, he was able to successfully complete this adventure.
