Gokyo Lake Trek |

 |
|
The Gokyo
/Gokyo Ri trek starts from Lukla after 45 minute
mountain flight from Kathmandu, following up the
Dudh Koshi river valley towards Namche, and
other main villages of Khumbu, Thame & Khumjung.
After Khumjung Valley we branch off from the
main busy trail towards the sleepy village of
Phortse Tenga and finally reaching to our
ultimate destination at Gokyo. Gokyo, a one time
yak pasture is blessed with two beautiful high
lakes.
The mountains are more spectacular, the Ngozumpa
Glacier is the largest in the Nepal Himalaya and
from a ridge above Gokyo, and for 8000m peaks (Cho
Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu) are visible at
once. The view of the tremendous ice ridge
between Cho Oyu and Gyachung Kang (7922m) is one
of the most dramatic panoramas in Khumbu. There
are many options for additional exploration and
high-altitude walking, including the crossing of
Cho La, a 5420m-high pass into Khumbu however we
will not cross this pass in this trek. We will
come back to Lukla almost a same Trail. |
