No, you cannot see Mt. Everest from its base camp, and that is why we hike to Kala Patthar the following day. At the base camp, giant mountains like Lhotse, Pumori, etc block the views of Mt. Everest. Kala Patthar offers a sensational panorama of Mt. Everest and other Himalayan mountains all around it. Another best viewpoint for Mt. Everest is Gokyo Ri. You will get to Everest Base Camp for the lifetime experience of reaching the base camp of the world’s highest mountain.
