We wake up to another spectacular morning in the mountain. It is important to know that acclimatization is not a rest day. Mountain expert suggests to stay active though out acclimatization period. We don’t spend our day lazing around the lodges or shopping in the local stores. Instead our trek leader will take us to explore the real charm of Namche Bazaar.
