Everest
Gokyo Trek - 31 Days
This trek explores the breath-taking
Gokyo valley which is located adjacent of the Khumbu.
Gokyo is a land of high altitude lakes and icy glaciers.
Here, a hike to the high vantage point of Gokyo Ri
(5350-m) will reward you with views of four of the eight
highest mountains on earth - all in one panorama! From
here, one can see more of Everest (8848-m) and the three
other Himalayan giants - Cho Oyu (8153-m), Lhotse
(8501-m) and Makalu (8463-m) and some of the great
Glaciers, mainly the Ngozumpa Glacier.
The small herding settlement of Gokyo (4750m) lies on
the banks of the third lake in a series of small
turquoise mountain lakes and on the ridge above Gokyo,
the four peaks above 8000m of Cho You, Everest, Lhotse
and Makalu expose themselves. In addition to this you
can have a look at the tremendous ice ridge between Cho
You and Gyachung (7922m), considered one of the most
dramatic panoramas in the Khumbu region. There are many
options for additional exploration and high-altitude
walking, including the crossing of Cho La, a 5420m-high
pass into Khumbu and a hike to Gokyo Ri.
Your return trek will depart from the standard Gokyo
trek as you will take the route back to Namche by
crossing the Renjo La pass (5340m) instead of back
trekking the Gokyo valley trails. This makes the trek a
much more exciting and challenging one.
These mountains are magical - and so are your encounters
with the Sherpa people, the famous mountain dwellers of
this Himalayan wonderland. As in the classic Everest
Base Camp trek, the warmth and hospitality extended by
the local inhabitants of this region, the Sherpas, will
add a further dimension to your experience of trekking
in Nepal.

Experience Required :This Trek is
suitable for keen walkers who are able to walk
for 6 – 7 hours in a day, with a light rucksack.
Some of the days are quite long, and the walking
feels more strenuous at altitude. Generally the
trail is a good track, but occasionally it will
be uneven and rocky.

accommodated in teahouses whilst on trek. A
teahouse is a local run guesthouse, but
standards vary enormously. In popular areas such
as Everest, teahouses are more like hotels, with
hot water, Western food and private rooms
