Tea Houses/Lodges: Found in most villages along the trekking route, these offer a range of services from dormitory-style rooms to private rooms. They usually provide blankets, but it's advisable to bring a sleeping bag.
Permits:
Sagarmatha National Park Permit: This permit is required for entering the Sagarmatha National Park, where Everest is located.
