The Everest Base Camp via Gokyo lake begins by a short flight from Kathmandu to Lukla airport, the entrance point of the Everest Region. We will also fly back from Lukla, when the trek ends.
You will be able to do this trek if you can walk up to 6 hours a day. There will be a couple of days for acclimatisation, where your body will also get some rest. If you are in doubt as to your physical fitness, please add a porter who can carry your backpack, when booking this package.
Gokyo Renjo La Pass Trekking takes you from the mainstream trekking trail and gives you an exclusive experience of trekking off the beaten path in the Everest region. Be amazed by the spectacular views of the snowy mountains and vast landscapes, the unparalleled culture and traditions, and the diverse flora and fauna of the Gokyo Valley. Explore the delightful turquoise lakes nestled in the silver mountains and Gokyo village perched on the bank of one of those lakes.
Exploring the unique blend of Nepalese and Tibetan Buddhism and the culture, traditions, and lifestyles of the aboriginal Sherpa people are other highlights of the trek apart from the marvelous views and natural diversity.
Begin with a mountain flight to Lukla and explore Chauri kharka, Phakding, and Namche Bazaar villages. Stay for acclimatization in the historical trading hub of Namche.

Everest (8848m), Lhotse (8516m), Cho-Oyu (8201m), Makalu (8585m), Ama Dablam (6812m), Thame Peak and others. You can also see the Ngozomba Glacier, the largest glacier in the Himalayas, and the unique Gokyo village. Climb to the challenging Renjo La Pass (5345m), another viewpoint in the trail which provides yet another surreal scenery of the Himalayas to the trekkers as a reward for their strenuous trekking in the region. After exploring the area, we retrace our path, head for Thame, trek to Lukla, and fly back to Kathmandu.
On the trek, you may glimpse rare species such as musk deer, wild mountain goat, snow leopard, and hawk. Locals believe in the existence of the infamous Yeti as well. You may witness it as well; you never know!

Experience our team's professional service, exceptional hospitality, and the warmth of the ever-smiling locals. Discover yourself in this wonder world in a hassle-free and entertaining trekking expedition in the mountains of Nepal.
Incredible trip and adventure! Definitely once in a lifetime experience with breathtaking views. It was tough but so rewarding and I met so many great trekkers from all over the world. DO IT!
We embarked on an unforgettable journey along the Manaslu Circuit, exploring additional highlights like Kathmandu Heritage Tours. This tour operator graciously accommodated our request for extra days for an acclimatization and also to include some side trips, demonstrating impeccable professionalism and hospitality throughout our expedition. Our guide, Kumar, stood out with his exemplary service, providing us with insightful guidance, ensuring our health and well-being, and attentively caring for us during moments of fatigue or discomfort. The porters, including Prakash/Bhote ( as they called) and Anil. Kumar, went above and beyond their duties. Not only did they shoulder the weight of our bulky bags throughout the trek, but they also offered invaluable assistance on challenging terrains, ensuring our safety and comfort. Their warm demeanor and genuine Nepali hospitality enriched our journey, making it truly memorable. Thanks to the exceptional team, we had an enriching and delightful experience on the Manaslu Circuit trek, creating lasting memories that we will cherish for years to come. Thank you. Namaste !
This was our second trek in Nepal having done Poon Hill in 2018. The Langtang Valley route is less crowded than Poon Hill. The trek is not easy with lots of ups and downs and a certain level of fitness is required. However, our efforts were well-rewarded with varied and breath-taking scenery along the route. The tea houses varied in level of comfort provided, with some having en suite western bathrooms while others, such as the Lama Hotel, were very basic with shared squat-style toilets and an outside shower room. The road to Syabrubesi is long and bumpy - I would definitely recommend getting the private jeep from Kathmandu. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the Langtang Valley trek and would recommend it.
The land of the Khumbu region is the home of Mt. Everest as well as several other 8000+ meter mountains. It is also a land of amazing adventure. While the Everest region is definitely an adventure, there are those experiences in the Khumbu region very few people ever have. One of them is climbing the three high mountain passes of the Mt. Everest Base Camp - 3 Passes Adventure Trek! We are proud to be able to offer this amazing trip that features the ultimate of trekking adventure.
This trek takes you across three very high mountain passes: Kangma La (elev. 5500 m), Cho-La (elev. 5320 m) and Reno-La (elev. 5400 m). In addition, there is an opportunity to climb to the top of Mt. Kalapathar (elev. 5555 m). Much of this trek is in the wildest parts of the Himalayas where it is said the mysterious yeti resides. While you probably won’t see a yeti, you will see hardly any tourists either on this incredible journey.
The Mt. Everest Base Camp - 3 Passes Adventure Trek also includes some of the more popular places, including Everest Base Camp. There are spectacular monasteries, including the one at Tengboche, which features Mt. Everest as its backdrop. Enjoy the local hospitality at the administrative centre of Namche Bazar. Walk past terraced farms and through colourful stone villages. Sip tea with the Sherpa people and if you like, sample some of the local alcoholic drinks.
This adventurous and challenging trek is not for everyone! It is a strenuous trip that requires a special permit to enter the area. We highly recommend only trekkers with previous experience to join us. Are you up to the challenge?
This is an epic journey to one of Nepal’s most famous treks that will take you over some of the highest mountain passes in the world. We will be crossing three mountain passes between 5000m and 5535m. Magnificent landscapes, imposing and prestigious peaks, tapering ridges and colorful villages contribute to turning this trek into an unforgettable experience.
It is possible to walk this trek in either direction, but acclimatisation is easier if you travel from east to west per our itinerary. This means that from Lukla, the entrance point of the Everest region, we will hike to to Dingboche, then Chhukung, crossing the 5,535m Kongma La Pass (the hardest of the 3 passes) to Lobuche. From Lobuche we will trek to Everest Base Camp, Kala Patthar, crossing the 5,420m Cho La Pass to Gokyo, and finally from Gokyo hike over the 5,345m Renjo La Pass down to Thame, Namche Bazar and finally reach back Lukla, from where we will fly back. This trek offers so many stunning views and great experiences; undoubtedly giving you many fond memories. It will be a circuit trek meaning that you will not have to walk on the same trek up and down.
This trek is rather hard, but people in a reasonably fit shape can do it. If you are in doubt as to your physical ability we recommend adding a porter (you can book such via check-out on this site).
We are looking forward to taking you on an adventure of a lifetime.

We had awesome trek to see Gurung community with the help of Sujan and the local operator. We managed historic hill trek to Siklis still retains an aura of old times. Historically, Siklis is renowned as one of the major origin places of Gurung Community. Here, we find the various ritual practices of Gurungs especially the works of Jhankri (shaman) and Lama (priest), who have important roles in marriage, death and day-to-day lives. Traditional technologies like alcohol fermentation, weaving clothes and sacks from the wild nettle, weaving various bamboo products, traditional water mills and stone grinders, wooden threshers etc are also the important features of Siklis. In this region we spot Nepals birds of prey including the 9ft wingspan Lammergeyer. The region is rich in flora and fauna particularly birds and butterfly because of its pristine forested surroundings and the great mountain views add an excitement. The experience was just awesome. Thanks to the entire team karma and dikki.
