Packing for a trek to Everest Base Camp requires finding the perfect balance between staying warm, keeping dry, and not carrying too much weight. In this guide, we break down the absolute essentials you need to carry in your duffel bag and daypack, including base layers, insulating jackets, sturdy trekking boots, sleeping bags, and personal medications. Proper layering is key, as temperatures can range from warm and sunny during the day to well below freezing at night. Make sure to pack high-quality gear, and remember that you can rent or buy most of it in Kathmandu or Pokhara if needed.
