The Makalu Base Camp Trek is one of Nepal’s most rewarding adventures if you want to avoid the crowded Everest and Annapurna trails and experience a wilder, untouched part of the Himalayas, where the mountains feel raw, and the scenery just keeps surprising you. Nestled in the remote eastern Himalayas, the trail gives you sweeping views of some of the world’s tallest peaks, including Mount Makalu (8,463M, the world’s fifth highest mountain) and distant views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Kanchenjunga from certain points.
