Qomolangma National Nature Preserve, Tibet, China
4.5 (62 reviews) Thursday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent Ranking #2 in Tingri County Nature & Wildlife Areas
Amazing View, Pity about the rubbish everywhere
This was my favourite place in Tibet. It is a long drive over a rough gravel road to get there (on the plus side, you will see some nice countryside too, but a 4x4 vehicle is recommended). The view you get will depend on the weather. We were very fortunate on this trip that we had perfect weather and were able to enjoy a perfect view of it. The only disappointing aspect was the amount of litter around the place, and the road in. It is a shame that n o one cleans it up, and that so many tourists don mind dropping rubbish everywhere. Be a responsible traveller and take your rubbish back to the hotel or nearest bin etc. The restaurant near base camp looks basic, but serves up a pretty good feed too.

Plan to get there early
The only way to enter the reserve and make your way to EBC is either by foot or by the Environment Friendly bus provided by the park. The earlier you get there, the better the view as it starts getting cloudy as well as crowded by 9.00am.
