Everest Base Camp

There are two base camps on opposite sides of Mount Everest: to the south in Nepal, and to the north in Tibet. Located at an altitude of 5,360 metres (17,590 ft) South Base Camp is in Nepal, and at 5,208 metres (17,087 ft) North Base Camp is in Tibet. These camps are rudimentary campsites on Mount Everest that are used by mountain climbers during their ascent and descent. South Base Camp is used when climbing via the southeast ridge, while North Base Camp is used when climbing via the northeast ridge.
