Everest busy? Have a do Gokyo incredible alternative, which climbs the valley to the west of Everest to the valley of Gokyo & five sacred lakes on the marine beside the Ngozumpa Glacier.
The Gokyo Trek is one of our favourite treks and we’d be delighted to help you explore this impressive region in Nepal.
The trek to Gokyo is the surprising jewel of the Khumbu. Make a trip to Gokyo if you found Everest is busy. This trip is as high as the Everest Base camp and offers similarly jaw-dropping scenery and the trails are less crowded, the lodges quieter. The view of the North Face of Everest is more extensive and whole airy panorama captivation. The trail follows the Everest Base Camp route as far as Sanasa, above Namche Bazaar, and then branches off the main valley to follow the Dudh Kosi its source - a series of emerald-green lakes along the moraine of the Ngozumpa Glacier. The Valley of the Dudh Kosi from Dole to Gokyo unlocks its secrets slowly. Beside the largest of these lakes in a valley of snow peaks, the great mass of Cho Oyu and secretive Gyachung Kang sparkle at the head of the valley. Picture-Postcard turquoise lakes sit serenely below these icy bastions. Gokyo village is a perfect destination than Gorak Shep, the trail is very well developed with comfortable and quirky tea houses along the way, not least because it is a proper Sherpa village, complete with huge herds of yaks. You will climb to Gokyo RI (5360mm) for heart-stopping view over Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu and Makalu and finally take the recently accessible Renjo La pass to Thame and thence to Thame.
