Opis:
Today is an essential day as it is the second and last acclimatization day of the trek (you may remember the first of which was at Namche Bazaar).

As we did the previous time, we will use the day to reach a higher altitude and then return to Dingboche to spend the night.One famous saying in high-altitude mountaineering is “Climb high, sleeplow”, which means it is wise, and sometimes even essential (whileascending more than 305m 1,000ft at an altitude of above 3,050m /10,000 ft) to sleep at a lower altitude than the highest point reached during the day.This is the first step of our acclimatization hike, the Nangkartshang Hermitage, where many trekkers choose to stop. Given that weare always looking for more exceptional views and that we are feeling relatively well overall, we decide to push on and reach the summit then back to dingboche stay same tea house.
