Embarking on the Gokyo Valley Trek allows for stunning vistas of mountain peaks and the Ngozumpa Glacier – Nepal’s Himalayas’ grandest one. This region boasts panoramic sights of Nepal’s famed mountains, each reaching 8,000 m, including Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu, that are impeccably visible from Gokyo Ri situated over Gokyo Lake. A notable highlight is the breath-taking ice ridge panorama between Cho Oyu and Gyachung.
Starting at the airport in Lukla, the captivating journey unfolds. Over the next days, we engage and blend in with the locals, also referred to as the Sherpas, staying at their lodges and delving into their village’s core. We traverse past Buddhist monasteries, with the sight of Everest and other high, snow-capped mountains growing increasingly conspicuous with each passing day. After reaching Gokyo Ri (5,483 m), we descend back to Namche and Lukla at a relaxed rhythm, catching our return flight to Kathmandu.
