Product Description

The Gokyo Valley is perhaps the most spectacular of the valley in the Everest region and while the trail to Everest Base Camp gets close to the worlds highest mountain there are those who suggest the view from Gokyo peak offers the best panoramic view in the region. The trail to Gokyo Lake has a network of small lodges which have recently seen big improvements in food and accommodation facilities.

The highlights are many, the sensational Ngozumpa Glacier, one of the largest in the Nepal Himalaya, the lake at Gokyo, and the side trek to the top of Gokyo Kang (***0m) where the views are the amongst the most spectacular in Nepal including tour ***0m peaks; Cho-Oyu (***2m), Makalu (***5m), Lhotse (***1m) and of  course, Mt. Everest (***8m). We trek at a steady place allowing ample time for acclimatization and plenty of opportunity to enjoy the renowned Sherpa Hospitality.

The trail to Gokyo lake is a gradual ascent up the valley passing through patches of birch and rhododendron forest where the elusive musk deer can sometimes be seen. The mountain views are impressive as we head through small yak grazing settlements to the Gokyo lakes. Everest Gokyo lake trek is relatively less touristy and easier than other trek in Khumbu region. Spring and autumn are the best seasons to trek, though Wonderland Nepal made it comfortably for seasons.
