- Pt. 5: Dingboche to Lobuche | Hiking the EVEREST BASE CAMP TREK | EBC 2022 // THIS is the story of how I said “Yes” to my very first international trek, hiking up to Everest Base Camp in Nepal.
Coming out of Dingboche, we had a pretty good climb, which would lead us to hiking through the Nepalese Flats. We were treated to beautiful, warm, clear weather and were able to enjoy all of the incredible scenery around us.
For lunch, we stopped at Thukla and enjoyed more Ginger Lemon Honey Tea and Dal Bhat. After lunch, we made the steep climb up to Thukla Pass, which sits at 4,830 meters or 15,748 feet.
When you see photos and videos of the Everest Base Camp trek, you’ve more than likely seen Thukla Pass. Thukla Pass was a somber and humbling experience seeing all of the different memorials for fallen climbers and failed expeditions on Mount Everest. There were so many memorials here.
After Thukla Pass, we hiked through more Nepalese Falts, which would eventually lead us into Lobuche for the evening. Here, we would visit the world’s highest bakery and sleep at over 16,000 feet.
In the morning, we would head off for one of the biggest days of our entire trek - Everest Base Camp.
From Dingboche to Lobuche
Elevation:
4,410 meters to 4,910 meters
14,469 feet to 16,108 feet

Get ready for more magnificent mountains videos in this video. We got lucky with the weather AGAIN!
"The Sierra Nevada range (In reference to my JMT thru-hike I did back in June here in the United States), THOSE are hills compared to these mountains. THESE are mountains."
"Sometimes uphill, sometimes downhill....sometimes ABC, sometimes EBC..."
Waw verry nice views keep it uploading
Glad you enjoyed this one!
❤❤❤
Great artistry with your camera/editing/soundtrack work. Really enjoying this series.
Thank you so much. I tried to convey the feelings and emotions I was experiencing in these moments through the videos. I think I did a pretty good job with this one because it made me cry as I rewatched it. I can't wait to go back to Nepal!!
seems like a heaven on the earth awesome scenes of himalays
It truly is heaven on Earth being there amongst the Himalaya mountains, if you love mountains as much as I do. 😍
Amazing editing! Love your story telling technique. You pace it all so well! Great job. 👍. Can't wait for more.
Thank you!! :)
The elevation you all are experiencing is impressive. Be safe and can’t wait for more.
Thanks! 😀
Beautiful
I 100% agree. This whole area was beautiful and felt surreal to even be there hiking through it.
Great series! Mahalos!
Thank you!
Nice job! Thukla pass scared me when I first saw it coming from Dingboche.
The climb up to Thukla Pass was no joke!!
Breathtaking, another cinematic showcase! 🎥🎥
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. :)
So so excited for you all.keep those videos coming stay safe out there!
Thank you!! There are still two more videos left in this series. Part 6 goes live on Wednesday. PLUS, I just finished editing a whole video going over all of the gear I brought with me for our trek along with answering some of the most asked questions I've been getting about how we planned our trek. The EBC Packing List + FAQ video will give live here on November 9th. Stay tuned for more from this amazing trip!!
Leaving us hanging!!! Torturous!!
Hahaha!! Part 6 goes live this Wednesday!! 😀
Awesome views. Wish you all the best trip of a lifetime!
Thank you! This trek was definitely a trip of a lifetime. I'm excited for my return back to Nepal for another trek!
That's some hungry hiking
This trek made me VERY hungry. Thank goodness for all of the delicious Dal Bhat along the way up to EBC.
@@TheHungryHiker looked Great
Great, well done!!!!!!
Thank you!! We're still trekking! There are still two more videos to go in my "Hiking the Everest Base Camp Trek" video series. Stay tuned! Part 6 goes live this Wednesday.
Very impressed
Glad you're enjoying this video series. Part 6 goes live on Wednesday!!
it is so humbling watching those mountains. I can see how it takes your breath away. Amazing!! Keep charging on. Namaste
It was incredibly humbling hiking amongst these mountains. Even at over 15,000 feet, these mountains were still towering over us. It felt surreal and magical. And yes, this trek literally took my breath away. :)
awesome.......when i completed Annapurn Circuit Trek.....i struggled to sleep for the last 2 nights..in fact i had no sleep the last night before we went trrough Thoronlga Pass at 5416 meters....loving the vlogs and looking forward to the last one...
Sleeping at the higher elevation was Dey’s challenge. I tossed and turned on the last couple nights with broken sleep, but still managed to get a few hours of sleep here and there.
Awesome video and series! This is a bucket list item and watching it helps to get over the apprehension hurdle. When the series is complete, I bet viewers would love to see a breakdown of equipment, what you used, what you didn't use, why you made some of the choices you did, and/or what you might do differently. I know I would. For instance, I suspect you skipped filters in lieu of SteriPEN because filters can freeze... Regardless, thanks for all the great content!
Thanks for watching and glad you're enjoying this video series!! It's been so fun to go back and re-live my trip to Nepal all over again by creating these videos.
You must have been reading my mind! I just finished editing a video where I go through ALL of the gear I brought with me for this trip (what I used, didn't use and why) along with answering some of the most questions I've been getting asked about how we planned our trek. It's a long (30 minutes) and detailed video and will go live here on my UA-cam Channel on November 9th so stay tuned!! We still have two more videos to go in this series. :)
NICE...
I absolutely loved this section along our trek. Literally took our breath away.
did in 2013, it was SO AWESOME one of my best trek!!!!!
Love it! I can’t wait to go back for another trek!
🇳🇵🥶🙏
Glad you enjoyed the video! Part 7 goes live this Sunday so stay tuned. This trip isn't quite over yet.
I'm planning to visit next year
Awesome! This trip will change your life. I know it changed mine. 😀 For those interested in planning an EBC Trek, I just got done putting together a video featuring all of the gear I brought (and why) and answer all of the most asked questions I’ve been getting about how we planned our trip to Nepal. That video will go live on my UA-cam Channel on 11/9 so stay tuned!!
my beautiful country nepal
Nepal is very beautiful indeed!!❤️
Congrats
Thank you!! We're still trekking! There are still two more videos to go in my "Hiking the Everest Base Camp Trek" video series. Stay tuned! Part 6 goes live this Wednesday.
Really enjoying watching your videos to EBC, I will be going up in 3 months with Life Himalaya also, I would like to know what. Camera did you use to film, or did you use an Apple iphone, I’m still deciding. Also was there plenty of PowerPoints for you to charge your electronics? Thank you
Planning on March to be in Nepal to hike. I have plan to be there for 3 month so that I can visit as much as possible.
Three months is a good amount of time. You’ll be able to see so much!!
@@TheHungryHiker yeah. I am being tired of city life and every day is same thing. Wanna to be with nature with beautiful Himalaya. Wanted to be in peace ...
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you!!
Was your editing done, when you got back home? Any upset stomachs between the 5 of you? Amazing scenery
Yes! I started editing all of my videos two weeks after I got back home here in the United States. I needed some extra time to absorb and reflect on everything that happened along our trek before I was ready to share it with the world. I think a couple people struggled with minor stomach issues, but it was only for a short amount of time.
Good luck 🤞,🇳🇵
Thank you!
Hi, where did you stay in Dingboche? Thanks
I’d love to know what limits or guidelines they had for monitoring you saturations. In school we had many math problems where we had to figure out the partial pressure of oxygen at Everest altitude and how it affected numbers in the body… but that was 20 years ago! Lol. And how did the altitude feel etc? I’m sure you’ll touch on that in your following videos. I love this series and the adventure you had!
Not sure exactly what the limits or guidelines were for our vitals that our guide was monitoring, but I know that no one in our group came close to having any issues at the higher elevation. The higher we got, the harder it was to breathe. I know I felt a whole lot more tired at the higher elevation, which is why we all hiked slow, slow, slow. Thank goodness for Diamox, cough drops, lots of water and delicious food along this trek. 😀
I hope you have been taking notes and comparing recipes between all the stops you've been getting dahl bat at. I've tried to find that around me (at a restaurant), but no luck. Indian food is about as close as I have been able to come and I don't think it is all that close. Hope to see an Everest/ Nepal inspired cooking video or two after this trip. Thanks for sharing. What a cool experience.
I LOVE this idea!!!! This winter I'll be working on lots of new food videos for my channel and will be sure to add a Nepal inspired backpacking cooking video to the lineup. Thanks for the great idea!
I did find a Nepalese restaurant nearby and can't wait to check it out soon. I've been craving Dal Bhat and Mono everyday since I've come back from Nepal.
Really incredible video! What were the dates of your trek - I am going very soon?
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video. We did our EBC trek in September of this year, Sept 19th through the 24th. I've put together a whole, very detailed video covering all of the gear I brought with me for this trek along with how we planned our trek, details of our trek and answered some of the most asked questions I've been getting about our trek in an upcoming video that will go live here on my UA-cam Channel on 11/9. If that's something you'd be interested, be sure to subscribe to my UA-cam Channel and hit the Bell icon so that you're notified as soon as my new videos go live. Happy trip planning! When is your trip to Nepal?
@@TheHungryHiker Thank you! That’s really great to know - I will definitely give the videos a watch. I leave next week on Wednesday 9th of November and my trek starts on the 12th of November.
Have an awesome trip!!!
I find it doubly tragic how many climbers have died on the mountain, and their bodies remain... often as trail markers. Like the unknown climber known as "green boots, or "Scott Fischer (4:55). Y'all be REAL careful, this is no game.
I agree. The site of the memorials up at Thukla Pass were very humbling. I took time to visit as many of the memorials as I could, reading all of the different signs and plaques. Even though we didn't summit Mount Everest on this trip, hiking in this area is really challenging. Not only being up at such a high elevation, but also weather conditions can change in an instant. You have to be prepared for anything that might come your way. Luckily, we had an amazing guide who helped us stay safe and have a successful trek up to EBC.
You all are champions!!!!!!
Crazy altitudes there. Hopefully no one got altitude sickness. BTW, No offense to the Nepalese hotels but you meals look a little sparse.
In regards to your comment about meals in the teahouses along the EBC trek: Whenever you order Dal Bhat, you are always offered seconds. What you're seeing in the video is just the first round of each meal. You can literally have as much of the Dal Bhat dish as you want. Trust me, no one ever went hungry along our trek. :)
Thank you for the update. After a few days of watching I never saw a seconds serving being brought out. Though maybe no one needed any.
That’s because I was too busy eating to catch the second servings being offered on video. 😂 Rest assured, I happily accepted each of the second servings that were offered to me. 😀
Sometime uphill sometime downhil resham fi ri ri haha 😄 he's killin' it
I agree. Prakash's songs are the absolute BEST!!
Have you answered this already but what company did you guys use?
Yup! I’ve answered this one in Part 1 and our trekking company’s information is in the video description for each of my Nepal videos. Since you missed it, we used Life Himalaya Trekking and they were awesome! lifehimalayatrekking.com
@@TheHungryHiker well if I ain’t oblivious and don’t pay attention 🤣
@@sonyarenee8436 No worries! Happy to help!
What do you think happen with all the plastic water bottles you bought? Why didn’t you purified tap water?
Our guide told us that all of the plastic bottles are brought down to the lower elevations by porters where they are recycled. We saw a number of porters heading down the trail with loads of bottles. If you have been watching all of the videos in this series, you’ll see a few of them. I go into detail about why I didn’t purify water along our trek in a future video coming out on my UA-cam Channel on 11/13.
Good one
Awaiting summit part😊
Yay! Part 6 goes live on Wednesday!! EBC or BUST! 😀
Or daughter is up there tonight, she will be up soon to go to basecamp 😁
I hope your daughter is having the time of her life up there in Nepal!!
I really have some questions
How to reach this place?
How much it cost ?
Watch this video. It will answer all of your questions about this trip: ua-cam.com/video/JTpRr2FXDMk/v-deo.htmlsi=MMM1h-MdeNBFk1H6
Take care ❤️
Thank you!! We're still trekking! There are still two more videos to go in my "Hiking the Everest Base Camp Trek" video series. Stay tuned! Part 6 goes live this Wednesday.
@@TheHungryHiker sure 😊
Im waiting your video everyday... your videos was amazing ...
Awesome!
Can i have your instagram id
@@VikramVikram09 My Instagram handle is in the video description for each of my videos: @_thehungryhiker :)
A guy from my country just lost his life under the Hillary-steps, I hope this hiking doesn't inspire you to reach the top while risking your life. Wishing you the best and be safe out there.
As sad as that is, people die every day. There's a certain amount of risk in everything we do. We can't let the fear of what "could" happen hold us back from doing the things we want to do and make us happy. Life's too short to live in a bubble.
do you love yaks with their bell on the way?
I do!! Each time I hear a yak bell, it brings me right back to our EBC trek and all of our incredible memories.
It could sounds better if you named the dog BURGER instead of momo 😎
Cute idea, but I think I'll stick with "MoMO." Sentimental reasons..
Waw verry nice views keep it uploading
Yay! Part 6 goes live this Wednesday!
I have watched all of your videos
