Back to Top During your trek in the Khumbu region, you can take showers using gravity-fed water heated on gas stoves. In the lower villages such as Namche, you can enjoy solar-heated showers in your private rooms in the lodges. As you move to higher altitudes, the washing facilities become simpler but are always available. The showers are less likely to be used in the highest altitudes, where temperatures are colder. However, our Sherpa staff ensures you receive small amounts of heated washing water daily. Additionally, warm washing water and soap are provided for your hands before each meal, and we strongly encourage you to use them.
