highlights

Enjoy great views of Mt Everest, Mt Lhotse, Mt Makalu, Mt Cho Oyou and other peaks
Experience Sherpa culture & traditions and the lifestyle of the mountain people
See the beautiful Gokyo lake and Nepal's largest glacier - Ngozumpa glacier

The Gokyo trek is one of the most popular treks in the Everest region. The Gokyo valley is located in the eastern part of Nepal.

More that a dozen snow-covered mountain peaks are visible from Gokyo peak (Gokyo Ri) including several 8,000+ meter peaks such as Mount Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Kanchaenjunga and Cho Oyu. You also get wonderful views of Ngozumpa glacier - the largest glacier in Nepal. At the base of Gokyo Ri is a small hamlet made up of a few stone houses which is also one of the highest settlements in the world. From Gokyo Ri we can get great views of the lakes in the area, especially the emerald Gokyo lake.

Trekking around Gokyo valley is considered a traditional trek that offers magnificent views of the mountain peaks. The image of this region is associated with the soaring views of the most popular mountains in Nepal such as Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu which are clearly visible from Gokyo Ri above Gokyo Lake. One of the most remarkable views is of the tremendous ice ridge between Cho Oyu and Gyachung (2,922m) located in the Khumbu region.

Join us on this trek and enjoy the Gokyo region. Please see the itinerary section for more details.

Review for another Nepal Lion Tours and Treks Pvt Ltd tour

5 - Excellent

“What a great trip. Excellent service and our guide, Bishnu, was fantastic. I went as a solo traveler but chose to join a group which included 2 British guys and we ended upp having a great time. Beautiful scenery and great weather, except when we summited Kyanjing Ri for a sunrise view when it was a bit cloudy, but overall very nice. The accommodations were a bit rustic, but are improving due to the rebuilding after the Earthquake of 2015. I'd definitely recommend for those with limited time in Nepal who want a wonderful trek through the Himalayas.”
