At a glance
Sunset in Everest Base Camp today is at 5:33 PM (6 min earlier than Kathmandu). The sky is fully dark from 6:51 PM until 4:38 AM — about 9 h 47 m of true darkness for stargazing.
At about 5,364 m, Everest Base Camp is high in the Himalaya. Thin, dry air and very little light pollution give some of the darkest skies in Nepal on clear nights — but temperatures drop fast after sunset, so dress warmly.
Right now is post-monsoon season, usually the clearest time of year for stargazing in Nepal.
