Everest and Gokyo Lakes Trek
A Journey into the Heart of Nepal

Overview

In this classic trek, we’ll view Everest from a variety of angles and view Base Camp by traversing over the Cho La – an 18,000-foot pass that connects the Gokyo Valley with the upper Khumbu Valley. By taking this ultra scenic route we’ll experience more of Nepal’s high country, making an incredible loop through the heart of the Everest region.

From Namche Bazar at 11,750 feet, we’ll trek steadily up the Gokyo Valley eventually reaching the town of Gokyo at 16,500 feet. Early the next evening, we’ll hike up to Gokyo Ri – a panoramic vista at 17,000 feet – and experience some of the finest views of the Khumbu and Mount Everest bathed in late afternoon light.

From Goyko, we’ll traverse over the Cho La Pass and make our way to Everest Base Camp spending a night at the base of the highest mountain in the world. Before we leave the Khumbu, we’ll make a one-day ascent of Kala Patar (18,700 feet) and enjoy more outstanding views the entire region.
