General Information

Lukla (Nepali: लुक्ला) is a small town in the Khumbu Pasanglhamu rural municipality of the Solukhumbu District in the Province No. 1 of north-eastern Nepal. Situated at 2,860 metres (9,383 ft), it is a popular place for visitors to the Himalayas near Mount Everest to arrive. Although Lukla means place with many goats and sheep, few are found in the area nowadays.

Lukla contains a small airport servicing the region, and a variety of shops and lodges catering to tourists and trekkers, providing western-style meals and trail supplies.

From Lukla, travellers will take two days to reach the village Namche Bazaar, an altitude acclimatization stop for those continuing on.

In August 2014, the Nepalese government announced plans to open the first tarmac road from Kathmandu to Lukla.

Lukla Airport Nepal
One of the scariest and most dangerous landings in the world at Lukla Airport in Nepal
Lukla is served by the Tenzing-Hillary Airport. Weather permitting, twin-engined Dornier Do 228s and de Havilland Canada Twin Otters make frequent daylight flights between Lukla and Kathmandu. Lukla Airport has a very short and steep airstrip, often compounded by hazardous weather, resulting in several fatal accidents. It has been called the most dangerous airport in the world.

    हवाईजहाज र हेलिकप्टरको निरन्तर चहलपहल हुने लुक्ला बजार पदयात्रा सुरु गर्नुअघि बन्दोबस्ती मिलाउनका लागि निकै राम्रो र सुविधायुक्त ठाउँ हो।

    तेन्जिङ-हिलारी विमानस्थल रहेको लुक्ला सगरमाथा क्षेत्रको मुख्य ढोका हो। पहाडको भित्तामा रहेको सानो धावनमार्गमा जहाज अवतरण गर्दाको अनुभव निकै रोमाञ्चक हुन्छ।
