Overview

Everest Base Camp with Gokyo Trek via Cho La Pass is famous for its unrivaled beauty, geological wonders, local grandeur, and breathtaking views.. The climb is magnificent, with breathtaking views of gleaming mountains such as Ama Dablam, Mt. Everest Nuptse, and Gokyo Ri.

Its historical landmarks, like as medieval monasteries, Mani walls, and prayer wheels, provide insight into the Himalayan people’s culture. This allows them to better comprehend the customs and traditions of the Everest region’s residents, who are largely Sherpa and Tibetan.

People from various castes have migrated to the region throughout the years, thus you may come across Brahmin, Chhetri, Sherpa, and Rai. Tengboche monastery is one of the most important tourist attractions in Khumbu and is visited by the majority of trekkers.

At 5,364 meters height, Everest Base Camp is located in the south of Khumbu. It’s around 144 kilometers from Kathmandu, with the actual trek beginning in Lukla. The trail that leads from this little Sherpa settlement passes past various villages, including Namche Bazaar and Dingboche.

The trail traverses suspension bridges over the Dudh Koshi River and climbs a high slope several times. It follows a terrace farm and crosses steep routes with sharp rocks to reach Everest Base Camp.

With terminal moraines and ice sheets, the trek becomes extremely arduous from the base camp. The route to Gokyo passes across Cho La Pass (5,420 meters) and crosses the Ngozumpa glacier to the east.. This mountain pass connects the villages of Thangnak and Dzonglha, both of which are surrounded by mountains and tall hills.

The trail then ascends from the jagged and rocky landscape, crossing Thangnak. The hike from the town to the first Gokyo Lake takes around 2-3 hours, and continuing on will take you to the second Gokyo Lake. The third Gokyo Lake is located near the Gokyo Valley and offers a breathtaking view of Gokyo Ri.

The fourth and fifth Gokyo Lakes can be reached by walking across hard terrain with loose rocks and boulders beyond Gokyo towns. Once reaching the last lake, you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful vista of quiet lakes, various landscapes, sheer glaciers, and breathtaking mountains..

Day 1 :

Kathmandu to Lukla and trek to Phakding(2,640 meters) - Walking Hours: 3 hours

Overnight at at the Lodge We'll depart from Kathmandu to Lukla, which takes around 45 minutes to an hour. Enjoy the spectacular views of rolling landscapes, wide meadows, rural farms, and clifftops until then. We'll arrive at the charming town of Lukla after flying over traditional Nepali villages and steep hills. After a brief brunch break, we resume our journey to Phakding with a steep descent from the right bank of the Dudh Koshi River. To get to Ghat, we walk slowly through the pine forest and past the old Mani walls. There is a well-worn trail that leads to Phakding, with both ups and downs. After we get in the settlement, we'll go to a lodge.

Day 2 :

Trek to Namche Bazaar (3440m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Overnight at at the Lodge Crossing a little brook and climbing the terraced hill to Benkar are the first steps in the trek to Namche Bazaar. We are encircled by rhododendron and pine forests as we follow the Dudh Koshi River Valley below and beyond. We travel to Sagarmatha National Park, where the entrance money is collected, after passing the Manjo settlement. We will cross the Dudh Koshi River on the suspension bridge numerous times during the walk. The terrain becomes exceedingly challenging with a steep ascent after a few kilometres above Jorsale.Since there are no flat areas to walk on from here, it might take us longer than two hours to get to Namche Bazaar. We may marvel at the stunning views of mountainous landscape, green hills, and ridges with steep sides as we reach the town. A nice lodge in Namche for the night.

Day 3 :

Acclimatization day at Namche.

We'll stay in the town for the day because the walk from Namche is comparatively difficult and uphill. To help with acclimatization, we'll ascend the trek to the less populated twin villages of Kunde and Khumjung and return to Namche through the Everest View Hotel. A pleasant day hike today might last 4-5 hours. We'll have a stunning vista of snow-capped mountains, including Ama Dablam, Mt. Everest, Thamserku, and many others, when we arrive at the settlement. Trekkers frequently stop in these settlements for lunch and to stay the night. We'll then trek up the rocky hill for an hour before arriving at the Everest View Hotel. Finally, the effort is rewarded with a stunning view of Mt. Everest, Ama Dablam, and Thamserku from the top of the hill. Awe-inspiring views of steep-sided valleys, verdant forests, and magnificent villages will be presented to us. After taking in the scenery, we'll return to Namche village by descending the trail. It's wonderful to explore Namche Bazaar's town and its vibrant local businesses. We'll stay in the inn that night.

Day 4 :

Trek to Tengboche (3790m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Overnight at at the Lodge We'll leave after eating a typical breakfast and travel to Tengboche. We'll leave the ground level, turn up the steep hill, and then proceed into the forest, where the trail becomes a little easier. We'll descend the trail to the raging river at Phungi Tenga after an hour or two of painless walking. After traversing the river on a dilapidated wooden bridge, we started the two-hour ascent. We'll start the final ascent of the day after a delectable lunch at the neighborhood tea establishment. The hike becomes hard from here on with a slowing of the pace due to the low oxygen content in the air. After a protracted and difficult ascent, we will eventually end our walk in Tengboche, a little settlement in the Khumbu region. It boasts one of the oldest Tibetan monasteries in the nation with the breathtaking Ama Dablam as a backdrop. Tengboche, located at a hill across from Imja Khola, is a popular resting place for hikers.

Day 5 :

Trek to Dingboche (4350m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Overnight at at the Lodge We'll visit the lovely Tengboche monastery early in the morning, take part in the prayers, and receive blessings there. We will soon leave the settlement and ascend while taking in the breathtaking views of Kantega and Ama Dablam. As we keep moving forward on the trail, we can see numerous Mani walls, Chortens, and lush hills. The lower track leads to Pangboche Olin, where you can see a long stone fence, while the top trail passes Pangboche. Our road steadily advances toward Dingboche with an ascent to the enormous Mani Stupa. After a few more hours of easy hiking, we'll arrive at Dingboche. It is the most well-liked resting place for hikers and is situated 14,000 feet above sea level in the northeastern Chukhung Valley. Imja Tse and Lhotse, two snow-capped mountains, are visible from the settlement. From the ridge, we can see the Imja River and colorful lowlands. We'll spend the night in a trekking lodge.

Day 6 :

travel to the Chhukung Valley and return to Dingboche in one day.

A day off is definitely due after a long and exhausting exploration day. We'll relax at Dingboche the following day in order to be well prepared for the long walk. We'll take a primarily upward stroll to Chukhung Valley to make the most of the day. Before coming to a conclusion at the glacial moraine, the trail passes past fields with stone walls and the Imja Khola Valley. Trekkers may find it challenging to maneuver here because to the rocky, uneven terrain. Yet once you get to the valley, Lhotse and Nuptse's breathtaking appeal will leave you speechless. The trek rewards us with an amazing vista of Lho and Nup Glacier in addition to glimpses of Mt. Ama Dablam. After exploring the valley for a time, we quickly return to the settlement and spend the night there. Chukhung Ri, which rises above the hamlet of Chukhung, is incredibly popular for an acclimatization side trip. Although rocky and steep, the trail to the peak is equally impressive due to its distinctive geographical features and landforms. Nagarjun Peak, at 5,050 meters, is a different route that can help hikers get ready for the Cho La Pass climb. Its pathways are challenging as well, traveling up and down until coming to a clifftop with breathtaking views. Great views of Mt. Makalu, the fifth-highest summit in the world, can be had by climbing to the top of Nagarjun Peak (5000m).

Day 7 :

Trek to Lobuche (4950m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Spend the night at the Lobuche Lodge. Now that we've had a great day at Dingboche, we head back to the route that leads to Pheriche. Our day begins with a strenuous climb up the hill's edge, which offers a fantastic perspective of Island Peak and Chukhung Valley. We reached Dugla after a two-hour hike from the town of Dingboche and a wooden bridge spanning over a little stream. We take a short break and get our lunch at a little teahouse in the village. Then, depending on how quickly we move, we'll continue our upward climb for another hour or so. Though the trek on this part is strenuous, the view of Mt. Pumori, Kantega, and Cholatse is well worth the effort. When we arrive at the secluded village of Lobuche, we'll be treated to breathtaking views of towering hills, steep-sided valleys, and glistening snow peaks. Unlike Dingboche, Lobuche has few communities, only a few lodges and camping spots.

Day 8 :

Trek to Everest Base camp (5360m.), back to Gorakshep (5,164 m).

Overnight at the Gorakshep Teahouse Today will be a long and exhausting day on the trail as we make our way to Gorakshep and Everest Base Camp. Because the travel to the campground is extensive, an early hike from Lobuche to Gorakshep will allow us to get at the base camp on time and enjoy the spectacular views. When we leave the hamlet, we take the rocky moraine trail, which offers spectacular views of glacial lakes and icebergs. The path to Gorakshep is steep and rocky, with loose rocks that add to the difficulty. Because oxygen levels are low at this altitude, hikers must exercise considerable caution when walking the course. At 16,942 feet, Gorakshep is a little village perched on the brink of a frozen lakebed. After stopping by the local teahouse for lunch, we make our way to Everest Base Camp from the northeast. The three-hour hike to the base camp is fairly exhausting due to the difficult terrain of rocks and garbage. The thin air complicates the journey by causing altitude sickness. The path winds through the sheer glacier before arriving at the base of the Khumbu Icefall. From the Everest Base Camp, we have a wonderful view of Mt. Everest, Nuptse, and Cho Oyu. You can also see varied sceneries, gleaming Khumbu glaciers, and craggy mountains while exploring. After the tour, we will retrace our steps back to Gorakshep, but the trip will be shorter and easy. Stay in the teahouse for the night.

Day 9 :

Early morning to Kalapather(5,545 m) then trek to Dzonglha(4830m) - Walking Hours: 7-8 hrs

Spend the night at the Guesthouse. We begin our difficult trek up Kalapatthar with the first rays of light of day. The trail is straight uphill with no descent and takes between 2 and 3 hours to complete. The ascent to the peak affords the best view of Mt. Everest as well as some breathtaking scenery. In a mild breeze, it feels like you're right beside the mountain from the clifftop. The sunrise's stunning orange and red tint makes the entire sky look magnificent. We make our way down to Dzonglha after spending some time in Kalapatthar and watching the sunrise. In the start of the trek, the pathways are difficult and full of massive rocks and stones. They are steep for a few miles before descending, making the hike a little easier. On the route to Dzoglha, there are a few teahouses where you may sit and drink steaming tea. From there, the track is mostly level, regaining some of the elevation gained. The trail becomes narrow and steep after a quick descent, running from the hill's skirt. The final couple hours reaching Dzonglha are extremely arduous due to the continuous steep hike. The view from here is breathtaking, so we'll take our time and relax at the teahouse.

Day 10 :

Cross the Chola pass (5420m) then trek down to Tagnag(4695m) - Walking Hours: 6-7 hrs

Spend the night at the Guesthouse. Get up early and eat breakfast since we'll be leaving for the Cho La Pass in no time. The pass is located on the Gokyo route and begins with a difficult ascent through rocks and mountain ridges before transitioning to an icy path. Crampons, gaiters, and ropes will be required to scale the slippery trail from here, otherwise we will struggle to reach the summit. We'll arrive at the summit pass after a few hours of steep walking. There are no human settlements in the vicinity of Cho La Pass. It is only surrounded by high mountains, snow-capped hills, and glacial lakes, which make for a spectacular spectacle. Several multicolored prayer flags can be seen floating with the breeze on the mountaintop. We descend the snow-covered trail to Thangnak after admiring the scenery. Because the terrain is formed of ice, loose rocks, and boulders, we'll have to be exceedingly cautious on our descent. Not to mention that the weather is chilly on top, so bring some warm clothes. Thangnak is located west of Dzongla at an elevation of 15,850 feet above sea level. The town has a few teahouses where trekkers can stay the night.

Day 11 :

Trek to Gokyo (4800m) then visit fifth lake back to Gokyo(4,958 m) - Walking Hours: 3-4 hrs

Spend the night in a guesthouse. The hike to Thangnak was challenging, but climbing Gokyo is even more difficult. It's difficult to keep up with the pace of the trail, which runs across a glacier. It's a tough uphill hike through the Ngozumpa Glacier and along the small valley. We'll arrive at the first Gokyo Lake after another hour or two of navigating the steep trail. Gokyo Lake, surrounded by gleaming mountains and granite cliffs, provides a wonderful vista, as do the other five glacial lakes, including Thonak. We make it to fifth Gokyo Lake by following the hard terrain ahead, which rewards us with a spectacular view of Mt. Cho Oyu and Gokyo Ri. Gokyo Lakes are the world's highest freshwater lakes, located at elevations ranging from 4,700 to 5,000 meters. We'll return to the village after spending some quality time by the lake. Gokyo Valley, at an elevation of 4,750 meters, is one of the world's highest communities. There are numerous hotels, inns, and guesthouses in the area for lodging.

Day 12 :

Early morning climb up Gokyo Ri then trek down to Dole(4200m) - Walking Hours: 7-8 hrs

Overnight at Teahouse We saw all five Gokyo Lakes on the previous day, so today we'll travel to Gokyo Ri. We'll go out early in the morning for the walk, beginning with a tough ascent from the southern slope of Ngozumpa Glacier and south of Taujun Lake. The trails are steep and difficult here, so we'll take it slow and steady. When we reach the summit, we can take in the breathtaking views of Lhotse, Gyachung Kang, Makalu, Nuptse, Cho Oyu, and other peaks. At the summit of Gokyo Ri, there is a small village of a few stone dwellings. Following the sighting, we return to the trailhead and make our way down to the Dole. The expedition follows the same route as the previous one, departing from the lake and passing via the Ngozumpa Glacier. You'll see many Tibetan chortens along the way, as well as a beautiful vista of Thamserku and Kantega. During a mile-long trek, the views of Gokyo Valley begin to fade, but we can still see the steep peaks and mountains. The walk from Gokyo Valley to Dole takes about 6-7 hours, depending on how tired you are from the altitude. Dole is located in the Dudh Koshi River Valley, north of Khumjung. It is the main rest stop for Gokyo trekkers, so it's simple to see why there are so many guesthouses in the area.

Day 13 :

Trek to Namche bazaar (3,440 m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Overnight at a guesthouse Beginning from Dole, the trail descends till it reaches level land. We cross the suspension bridge and pass through various settlements, including Kyanjuma, after a leisurely walk. We make our way to the valley through an alpine woodland densely forested with pines and rhododendrons. The descent to Namche Bazaar is leisurely, with spectacular views of towering mountains, rolling green slopes, and lush meadows. We'll arrive in Namche, a picturesque town, after a short trek downhill beside Tibetan monasteries and Chortens.

Day 14 :

Trek down to Lukla (2,860 m) - Walking Hours: 5-6 hrs

Overnight at a hotel This will be our final trek across the Everest region. On this day, we'll descend from Namche to Lukla. The hike is downward this time, travelling alongside the Dudh Koshi River and crossing the suspension bridge. The trail winds through the pine forest and via a few settlements before arriving in Lukla.

Day 15 :

Return to Kathmandu and transfer to the hotel.

We're almost done with our Everest Base Camp Cho La Pass Gokyo Trek and need to return to Kathmandu. After breakfast, we'll walk a few kilometres to the Lukla airport to catch our flight.

What are the odds of developing altitude sickness while trekking to Everest Base Camp through Cho La Pass and Gokyo?

As a result of the high altitude and low oxygen levels, hikers are likely to suffer from altitude sickness at the Everest Base Camp. After reaching the peak of Namche Bazaar, many of them experience basic symptoms such as headache, sleeplessness, dizziness, and exhaustion.

Because the trail spends the most of its time at a greater altitude, it becomes considerably more difficult. Mountain sickness frequently worsens when ignored or when medical help is unavailable. Most hikers must also deal with the repercussions of ascending the trail too quickly and without adequate respite.

To mitigate the damage, we require all hikers to acclimate and take regular breaks along the trip. It assists them in adjusting to the weather and temperature at higher elevations, as well as dealing with sickness. Base camp has two days off planned for hikers to rest and acclimate to the conditions.
