Gokyo, Cho La and Everest Base Camp Trek
Before Booking a Trip
Trip Map
Quick Inquiry
This 16-days trek covers a big part of the Everest region.
By crossing the Cho La pass, you will reach the Gokyo area and the enchanting lakes of Gokyo and the Gokyo peak. It also gives you a fantastic view of Mt Everest, Ama Dablam, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Nilgiri and others.
There is a good reason why the Everest Base Camp trek is famous. This region, at the foot of the highest mountain in the world, offers a breathtaking natural beauty and views. You do not need any climbing experience because we stay on the hiking trails.
Several Sherpa villages will be crossed and you can witness the life style of the Sherpa’s in the Himalayas.
This is a challenging trek for which a perfect health and very good fitness is required . Experience in mountain hiking is not needed.
We stay in lodges (with minimum comfort) along the trekking trail.
