It is well said that the Everest region refers to the
most stunning & popular mountain areas among all.
This short route trek is especially designed for those
who have got only a limited time to discover the most
famous beauties of Nepal offering breath-taking high
mountain scenery through the Khumbu - Sherpa country.
The trek has got 2 possible routes either Renjo Pass
trek or an alternative itinerary. The trail to Gokyo
offers a gradual ascent up the valley passing through
patches of birch and rhododendron forest. There the
elusive musk deer can sometimes be seen. The trail passes
the small yak-grazing settlements to reach the Gokyo
lakes. The Gokyo Peak (5480m) ascent can be taken as
the one of the highlights of the trek. There we have
good time to savor the incredible scenery. From there
we can observe the magnificent views of Everest (8848m),
Makalu, Cho Oyo (8153m) and Lhotse (8511m), to name
but a few. The Renjo Pass route is off the usual beaten
track. At that place, We are rewarded with a fine view
of the Gokyo lakes on one side, the Rermo Pokhari lakes
on the other side, and a myriad of snowy peaks in the
background offering the incredible atmosphere. The alternative
route begins from Gokyo is much easier. From there,
the trail makes the descend along the opposite bank
of the Dudh Kosi.
