Trekking in Everest Base Camp and Gokyo Lake

Everest Base Camp and Gokyo lake trekking is arguably the most famous trekking route in the world. Everest base camp and Gokyo Lake trekking will takes you up the Khumbu valley where there aren't as many tourists as on the main trail to the base camp. Trekking in Everst Base camp and Gokyo lake is life time experience. Experience the hospitality of the Sherpas while enjoying views of Mt. Everest, Amadablam, Thamserku, Cho Oyu and Lhotse from the summit of Gokyo RI or just relax around the turquoise blue water of the Gokyo lakes.

Our trek begins at the heart of the Khumbu valley and proceeds in to the Gokyo valley on the 'off the beaten track'. We make our way up to the Gokyo lakes returning on a slightly different route. Here you will be able to view spectacular mountain scenery and enjoy traditional hospitality of the Sherpa
people.

On this Everest Trek you might be able to meet up with one of 2 remaining Climbing Sherpas from the 53 Everest Expedition. We also provide you with the privilege to stay in the Lodge of Appa Sherpa the world record holder of 16 Everest summits.

18 Day Khumbu Himal Trek

After sightseeing in Kathmandu, we begin with a flight to Lukla at (2800m). From Lukla we set out to walk along the famous trail to Everest. During our free day in Namche we will be explore the colourful village of Namche and visit the local museum of the Sherpa people.

Mountain Views and Monasteries

We visit traditional villages of Khunde and Khumjung and may have a chance to visit the school and hospital funded by Sir Edmund Hillary.

We'll enjoy fantastic panoramic views of the Khumbu Himal, viewing a grand stretch of summits. The high point of this trek is from Gokyo Ri 5380m. An excellent trek for those who want to see a less frequented valley of Gokyo.
