It's a challenging route that requires a lot of experience and good physical condition. You'll pass through snowfields such as Shipton La &amp; Keke La, which are located above 4000m and covered in deep snow, making it difficult to trek. The snow blizzards and strong winds add to the challenge. You'll also encounter big boulders before reaching Yangle Kharka, which requires good balance and experience to navigate. The trek involves constant ascent and descent between 3500m to 4200m, and you'll climb (and descend) 8500m overall, including the viewpoint at 5900m elevation. However, all the hard work pays off when you witness the breathtaking mountain, river and lake sceneries that are unlike anything you've ever seen before. One of the most striking things about this trek is that you'll rarely see other hikers on the route. This gives you a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture and see firsthand how the Sherpa people live their everyday lives. We highly recommend using a local company like Makalu Arun Social Trek (MAST) and local guides\/porters like Mr Suk Bahadur Ghimire and Mr Ratna Bahadur Rai, who have extensive knowledge of the area and are incredibly helpful.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1683072000\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-s\/08\/10\/44\/4c\/arun-u.jpg\" alt=\"arun u profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> arun u <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>The best and the only trekking company registered in Makalu region<\/strong>\nRight from the beginning Mr. Tejanath was very involved and helped with the planning and obtaining all the permits.

The Makalu Base Camp trek seemed ideal as I wanted to have close up views of the mountains and trek somewhere that wasn\u2019t too commercialised or busy.Makalu Arun Social Treks (MAST) was mentioned in the Lonely Planet guide book and, after looking at their website and reading the good Tripadvisor reviews, I decided that the service they were offering was what I wanted. What I wanted was a good porter\/guide at a reasonable rate and for someone to organise the required transportation and other aspects of the trek like the TIMS card.MAST was set up to help fund an orphanage but no longer does this as the government has taken over this responsibility. MAST is run by Tejanath who is a retired English school teacher who lives in Khandbari. This year they haven\u2019t organised many treks and mine was their fourth trek for the year. Tejanath was extremely helpful from the moment I contacted him and always promptly replied. He prefers Whatsapp so we soon switched to that and he is happy to talk on Whatsapp also.Tejanath allocated me a porter\/guide called Suk (aka Strong Man) who was very good and friendly, strong enough to carry all my gear and spoke some English. He also lives in Seduwa, which is at the start of the trek, so he knew the trek and the local people very well. I didn\u2019t expect him to speak English and the only problem was that he thought his English was better than it was. As a result it was sometimes a bit difficult and frustrating trying to understand him.Tejanath personally met me at Tumlingtar airport and brought me by tuk tuk to my hotel in Khandbari and also took me back to the airport. He and his wife were both very hospitable and looked after me very well whilst I was in Khandbari. The trek was very well organised and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending MAST for the Makalu Base Camp trek. It is much better and cheaper to use MAST than a Kathmandu based trekking agency. I also think that the Makalu trek is excellent and one gets very close up to so many 6,000 to 8,000 metre peaks. You can fairly easily get up to 5,738 metres on this trek, which is higher than on a lot of other treks in Nepal.I have posted a trip report on the Tripadvisor travel forum:https:\/\/www.tripadvisor.co.uk\/ShowTopic-g293889-i9243-k14193957-Lower_Dolpo_and_Makalu_Base_Camp_Treks_Trip_Report-Nepal.html<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1668556800\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-o\/1a\/f6\/e7\/99\/default-avatar-2020-57.jpg\" alt=\"ELCAMINENTE profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> ELCAMINENTE <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>Makalu basecamp yrek<\/strong>\nI returned to Nepal for the 8th time, to do Makalu basecamp trek in October 2022, starting from Phaplu to the Arun river and up the high passes to the Barun river towards the basecamp and back the same way to Tumlingtar. I used the services of Makalu-Arun social trek (MAST) because it fits my budget supplying a porter\/guide only (a porter who knows the trail). The walk was great and Tejanath of MAST took care of all the details. Really there was no need for a guide as the trail was clear all the way and it was nice to walk alone in the nature as my porter was most of the time well ahead or behind. Here follows some notes for other travellers :1- For the first time i noticed a lot of Nepali trekkers on the trail, this will definitely make the experience richer and change the old image of trekking in the Himalayas forever.2- The trail is a lodge trek with new and big lodges all the way, there are even smaller lodges halfway for lunch or a less crowded experience. Note that prices here are higher than elsewhere in Nepal (rooms from 500 to 700 per person and same for a Dahlbat). The smaller lodges tend to charge more than the big ones.3- the big \"draw back\" for this trek is the terrible jeep ride from Khandbari to Num, really 4 to 5 hours of non stop shaking through deep muddy trenches and big rocks. I hope that the national park authority will really try to find a walking alternative adding 2 more days to the trek.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1666224000\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-o\/1a\/f6\/e8\/91\/default-avatar-2020-62.jpg\" alt=\"splixer profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> splixer <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>Scenic and strenuous hike in the Himalays<\/strong>\nI completed the Makalu Base Camp trek early October and had a great experience. The trek itself is a pretty hard one. Harder than Everest Base Camp and the Annapurna Cicuit trek which I did back in 2016. But it is more rewarding. Still a pristine off-the-beaten path trail. Especially the Barun valley is heaven on earth. During 14 days I just met one foreign tourist. Besides him just friendly locals on the trail. On the lower section of the trail you will see mainly Hindu people. The higher you go the more Bhuddist people you will meet. This gives the trek a nice contrast. Accommodations and food a pretty basic on this trek (don\u2019t expect deep fried chocolate bars). I recommend vegetarian food while hiking in order to prevent food poisoning.With MAST you pay for the porter guide and transportation in advance. Your personal expenses on the trek you pay as you go. This consists mainly of food and accommodation. Sometimes I experienced some bigger price differences between the accommodations\/food places. I recommend you confirm the price in advance at these places. In short this is a more cost-effective way to hike. If you go for a Kathmandu based agencies you could easily spend double the price.My guide was a local from Seduwa village on the trail. He was very strong and helpful person. However I experienced a culture-shock sometimes \ud83d\ude09.While hiking I recommend to get up as early as possible to experience clear conditions. Yes, it still rains a lot even during mid-September. Also you should bring good hiking sticks hence the trek can be quite technical at some points. Expect landslide areas and rough river crossings.In a nutshell I recommend this trek to the experienced hiker. This is not a hike for rookies. But it is definitely worth the struggle. Your reward will be higher than on other treks in Nepal.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1576454400\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-o\/1a\/f6\/e9\/bb\/default-avatar-2020-65.jpg\" alt=\"Sham Tatkare profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> Sham Tatkare <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>Brief Trek Report and Feedback about Makalu Arun Social Trek (MAST)<\/strong>\nMakalu (27,820 ft.) is worlds 5th highest mountain. It is located at 20 km southeast of Mount Everest, Nepal. Our journey and trek route was, Pune - Delhi - Kathmandu - Biratnagar \u2013 Dharan \u2013 Khandbari - Num \u2013 Seduwa \u2013 Tashigaon - Danda kharka \u2013 Khongma \u2013 Dobato - Yangle kharka - Shiv Dhara - Langmale Kharka - Makalu Base Camp. Trek route is initially through Arun valley and then we enter in to Barun Valley. Due to lack of basic facilities &amp; development, this region of Himalaya has been preserved in its best form. Quality of air, water and vast variety of fauna &amp; flora are really exceptional. Barun valley has many Rudraksha trees and medical plants (Jadi-Buti). As per local belief, people living in Barun valley never have any disease and look much younger than their age. Recently (April 2019) Yati foot prints were reported by Indian army expedition team near Langmale Kharka. Tashigaon is the famous village of high altitude specialist mountaineers i.e. \u201cThe Sherpas\u201d. At Danda Kharka, near Tashigaon, we had a tea break. The hotel owner Sherpa Mr. Lakpa Gylzen, 22 years age, casually told us that he had climbed Mount Everest twice and few more peaks. I felt ashamed that Everest climber was serving tea to an ordinary trekker like me. . . Shiv Dhara is a 500 feet tall waterfall, on the mouth of a huge dome shape cave. It is believed that God Shiva using his Trishul made a hole in the cave (top side) to solve water scarcity problem in this region. Guide asked me to stand at about 8 feet away from main stream of water fall and then we started praying God Shiva. After about 5 minutes, the water fall changed its position and water started falling on our heads. Guide informed that we are blessed by the God. Of course, there is a scientific reason for this natural phenomenon. However, such incidents help to strengthen one\u2019s belief in God and inspire us to follow the path of righteousness &amp; virtues. . . No words will be enough to Thanks my brave guide Mr. Shuka Bahadur Ghimre &amp; the respected school teacher, Mr. Tejanath Pokharel, Chairperson, Makalu Arun Social Trek (MAST) &amp; his family for organizing such a wonderful trek and all the help. We are also thankful to Mr. Mohan Kumar Kafle, Chairman (MAST) for the coordination &amp; arranging necessary trek documents.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1574640000\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-o\/1a\/f6\/ea\/2e\/default-avatar-2020-67.jpg\" alt=\"gillgill999 profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> gillgill999 <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/e.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>Well organised trek<\/strong>\nWe did the Makalu Base Camp trek in November 2017. This was our ninth trek, organised through different agents in Nepal. For this trek we chose a local agent rather than one based in Kathmandu because the route is still relatively undeveloped and we wanted the benefit of local knowledge and contacts. We have no hesitation in recommending Tejanath. He always answered our email queries promptly and fully, gave us wonderful hospitality before and after the trek, found us an excellent porter and guide, and efficiently organised all the paperwork and land transport before and after the trek. Our guide was related to the extended family that runs all the guest houses on the trek, which enriched our experience. Makalu Base Camp is a beautiful and relatively uncrowded trek, well worth the extra hassle and expense of the flight into Tumlingtar. But you need to be prepared for quite basic food and accommodation, and be aware that once over the Shipton La communications (and hence rescue, should it be necessary) are difficult. Best for trekkers who have some experience.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\" data-open-text=\"Read more\"><\/span> <\/div> <\/div>  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1574640000\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Tripadvisor ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\" data-language=\"\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on Tripadvisor<\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/icon.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.tripadvisor.com\/media\/photo-m\/1280\/1b\/5c\/3b\/59\/alex-w.jpg\" alt=\"Alex W profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> Alex W <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Tripadvisor\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Tripadvisor star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Verified<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT --><strong>Makalu BC Trek Nov. 2016<\/strong>\nTejaneth of MAST organized a porter\/guide (Suk Bhadur Ghimibre) and porter (Raskamar Ghimibre) from the village of Seduwa for our teahouse trek to Makalu Base Camp in November 2016.

He also helped me get a seat on a plane back to KTM, thank you again! My guide Suk Bahadur was very knowledgeable about the trail and did speak some english. I also stayed at his house and his family was very welcoming. He helped arrange accommodation in tea houses and was regularly asking other sherpas for trail updates along the way.

If you do the trek with MAST specifically, be aware that not all porter guides are equipped equally. All i had for my guide was a duffle bag, which he ended up carrying in a very uncomfortable way for 16 days because he didn't like to use straps or baskets like most porters across Nepal. So i would recommend that you ask in advance who your guide will be and what kind of equipment they have or don't have. In doubt, bring a backpack for you and for your porter.The trail conditions were unexpectedly snowy last April (several meters of snow and warm T up and down Shipton La). Nepalese people have no training\/awareness of avalanche risks. Use your best judgement and speak up if you feel uncomfortable.<!-- R-CONTENT --><\/div> <span class=\"ti-read-more\" data-container=\".ti-review-content\" data-collapse-text=\"Hide\"
