Gokyo area

The huge massifs of Cho Oyo (8153) and Gyachung Kang (7922) dominated the head of this rugged canyon. Countless others summits loom to either side. This trek is perfect for the committed trekker who wants to see every aspect of the Khumbu region. In addition to an ascent of the 5400 m Gokyo Rie pea, we take in to the Cho La pass which links Gokyo to the main Everest trek at Loboche. We trek the summit of Kalapatthar (5545) for close up views of Everest`s South-West Face. We also visit Everest Base Camp for a closer view. Finally we return down to Lukla via the famous Buddhist monastery at Tengboche. Please note that the narrow Gokyo valley rises quickly in altitude and therefore some of our trekking days are very short. This is vital if everyone is to be properly acclimatized before tackling Gokyo Ri and the Cho La.
