Everest Base Camp Trek with Gokyo and Chola Pass
Everest Base Camp Trek with Gokyo and Chola Pass: A Thrill Combination of Ultimate Adventure and Nature Glory. This trek is for trekkers wanting a bit more challenge than the classic Everest Base Camp trek. Combining the spectacular Gokyo Lakes and the breath-taking Cho La Pass this is a once in a lifetime trek.
The adventure starts with a picturesque flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, then continuing on foot through quaint Sherpa settlements such as Phakding and Namche Bazaar. Namche, where our slightly less prolonged stop for acclimatization would play out whilst visiting this busy market town. The path then climbs past Tengboche and through Dingboche and Lobuche to the Everest Base Camp Trek with Gokyo and Chola Pass. An unforgettable panoramic view of Mount Everest and surrounding peaks from Kala Patthar at sunrise.
Once at Everest Base Camp, things get even more interesting with an arduous but rewarding hike over the Cho La Pass (5,367m): a high altitude pass that leads to the beautiful Gokyo Valley. Gokyo is known for its beautiful turquoise lakes and also for an amazing viewpoint of Gokyo Ri where you have breathtaking views of Everest, Lhotse and Makalu. The return leg goes through Dhole, and Namche Bazar before ending in Lukla.
This trek is organized by Getaway Nepal Adventure and it is well planned with experienced guides and smooth logistics making it an unforgettable Himalayan adventure. If you are looking for a more challenging and beautiful alternative to the standard trek, the Gokyo and Chola Pass Everest Base Camp Trip is the best way.
