Trekking in the Everest region puts you at the mercy of the weather more than you may have ever been before. Whether you need to know the weather for trekking to Everest Base Camp, the weather for Gokyo, or the weather forecast for the Khumbu region in general, we've compiled a list of what we believe to be the most accurate mountain weather forecasts for trekkers in Nepal.
The weather is still very hard to predict and we suggest using a collection of forecasts for the areas surrounding where you intend to trek each day.
