These are the unique records of climbing Mt. Everest.

Everest does not have to be known as Nepal all over the world. Nepal and Everest have become synonymous. Moreover, climbing Mt. Everest is becoming the lifeline of Nepal's tourism.


On May 29, 1953, Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Hillary climbed Mt. Everest at an altitude of 8,848 meters. Appa Sherpa has set a world record by climbing 21 times since 1953. But breaking her world record, Kamirita Sherpa has set the record by climbing Mt. Everest for the 24th time. In the same way, others have set different artificial ascents by the same climber time and time again. There have been instances of climbing Mt. Everest at the youngest age, the youngest and most often, in the shortest time, even without oxygen.

Everest, the world's highest mountain, has been climbed 6,000 times by climbers. The race to climb Mt. Everest, which started 67 years ago, has been successful 6,544 times so far.

In 1924, George Mallory tried to climb Mt. Everest with a British expedition, but was unsuccessful. In 1885, a survey of Indian geometry revealed the height of Mount Everest.

From 1953 to 2016, 4,628 climbers have climbed. In 2016 alone, 400 climbers had climbed.

More than 1,000 people from Tibet and Nepali Mohoda have been climbing Mt. Everest annually in the spring and autumn. Since the start of the ascent, 250 climbers have lost their lives so far. April, May and June are considered to be the main seasons for snow climbing in Nepal. They come from European, American and even Asian countries for climbing.

Fill the star hotel during the climbing season

With the start of the mountaineering season, star hotels are full of tourists. According to the Hotel Association of Nepal (HAN), the occupancy rate in big hotels has reached 60 to 65 percent on average. The arrival rate has been positive compared to the last two years, says Pravesh Aryal, chief executive officer of the association. According to Han, it is estimated that 80 to 85 percent of the rooms at the star hotel will be filled in April. In the spring, most climbers come to Nepal to climb the mountains, including Mount Everest.

Climbers are expected to arrive in the spring season

The global economy is in decline due to the Corona virus (Covid-19) spreading like a global epidemic. Traffic is light at most countries. Due to the PCR report and the provision of staying in quarantine for at least 14 days after visiting some countries, the tourists have to go through a cumbersome process.


Even in Nepal, Corona has almost stopped all areas. 

In the coming spring season, various mountains of Nepal will be open for climbing. The Government of Nepal has also announced special discounts for those interested in climbing this spring season.

It is 2800 meters above sea level. According to the Civil Aviation Authority, it is 527 meters long and 20 meters wide, which is shorter than other airports. As there is a short runway, ‘overshoot’ is not possible there. Experts say that it would be difficult to land the same flight. How is it different from others ? Experts say that if the landing is not considered safe in the final case, the airport should have a place where the aircraft can be flown straight ahead or left or right. ‘Overshoot’ is considered to be the general standard required for an airport. But Lukla has not reached that standard. Due to the short runway, the airport has been constructed in a different way to speed up the flight and stop the landing. Its lower part and upper part are at an angle of about 12 degrees. It makes a difference ...
