Day 09–Trek from Lobuche to Gorakshep (5200m)/ Excursion to EBC (5420 m) about 6 hours
After a leisurely breakfast we follow the broad valley running parallel to Khumbu Glacier. The trail ascends only gradually to the moraines of ChangriNupGlacier; from here we make a series of small ascents and descents over a rocky trail lined with cairns that leads eventually to GorakShep (5200m). After lunch we set off on our excursion to Everest Base Camp. This will be a fun filled high altitude walk along the Khumbu glacier to this triumph and tragedy spot at the elevation of 5430m.
