Gorakshep camera, Everest base camp trail

Gorakshep

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ต Himalayas ยท Nepal โ€” Altitude 5180 m

Local time UTC+5:45Checked 3,146 viewsHDMountains

This live camera looks out over Gorakshep, the last settlement on the classic route to Everest Base Camp. It is a useful window onto high mountain conditions, where cloud, snow and light change quickly. Check it before you set out, or simply watch the Himalayas from a distance.

A high mountain settlement

Gorakshep sits at roughly 5,180 metres in the Khumbu region of Nepal, close to the glacial lake that gives the village its name. It is a small cluster of lodges used mainly by trekkers and climbers heading to Everest Base Camp and nearby peaks. The landscape is stark: moraines, rock and ice under very large skies, with the Khumbu Glacier nearby. Life here follows the rhythm of the trekking season.

What the view can show

The page does not describe a fixed scene, so treat the live stream as a guide to conditions rather than a guarantee of specific features. Depending on the view, you may see snow-covered summits, drifting cloud, or clear blue skies after a storm. Mornings are often the clearest time in the mountains, before cloud builds up in the afternoon. Watching across several hours helps you judge how the weather is developing.

Climate and getting there

Conditions at this altitude are cold year-round, with strong winds and sharp temperature drops after dark. Spring and autumn are the most common seasons for trekking, with the most stable weather. Access is on foot or by small aircraft from Kathmandu, with the journey taking several days of walking. Nearby cameras in Lobuche, Dingboche and Khare show other points along the route.
