Synopsis

Gokyo valley trekking is also known as Gokyo lake trekking or Gokyo Ri trekking. After the 40 minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, the trek follows a trail up the Dudh Koshi river valley passing through some major villages like Namche, Khumbu and Khumjung from where it branches off the main busy trail and heads towards the sleepy village of Phortse tenga and finally reaches Gokyo, a beautiful pasture land with two lakes. The valley provides splendid view of high altitude peaks like Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu and the Ngozumpa Glacier which is the largest glacier in the Himalayas.

Among the most intense panoramas in Khumbu is the view of the fabulous ice ridge between Cho Oyu and Gyachung Kang (7922m). There are lodge and tea house facilities available at Gokyo, and there are also additional trekking trails for high altitude walking and crossing Cho La which is a 5420 meter high pass into Khumbu. The return to Lukla is along the same path, where upon you take a flight back to Kathmandu.
