Experience the raw grandeur of Nepal’s high peaks on the "Everest & Gokyo Lakes Circuit," a strenuous 19-day trek for experienced adventurers craving both challenge and solitude. Setting out from Kathmandu, this circuit leads through Namche Bazaar, Dole, and the tranquil Gokyo Valley, crossing the dramatic Cho La pass before joining the classic route to Everest Base Camp. Ample time for acclimatization lets you fully explore the serene Gokyo Lakes and aim for the summit of Kala Pattar, offering unmatched views of Everest. With a high staff-to-traveler ratio, seasoned local guides, and comprehensive support—including oxygen and medical kits—the tour ensures safety as you traverse remote wilderness. All essentials are included: accommodation, meals, and transport. The USP: a circular trek that goes beyond the standard Everest Base Camp route, revealing quieter valleys and hidden panoramas few ever see.
This spectacular and isolated circular trek skirts around formidable Manaslu, the eighth-highest mountain in the world. We follow the mighty Buri Gandaki River as it narrows into a spectacular gorge, passing through tiny villages perched on valley sides. Eventually, the gorge opens out into alpine meadows inhabited by a cluster of Tibetan communities below the north face of Manaslu. After a steady ascent through increasingly remote mountain country, we take on the long crossing of the Larkya Pass, with views of the snow-capped peaks of Himalchuli, Manaslu, Cheo Himal and Himlung Himal, before descending through forest to join the main Annapurna Circuit route.
Selected departures are led by Valerie Parkinson, Wanderlust World Guide Award winner (Best Tour Leader, 2021), celebrating 40 years of guiding Himalayan expeditions. See Dates & Prices.

The Annapurna Circuit – considered the iconic trek in Nepal – is legendary in the hiking community for its unrivalled variety of landscapes. However, few trekking trips complete the route, often skipping the final leg, which means missing out on deserted trails and unforgettable nights in quiet teahouses. We just couldn’t do that. Join us to tackle the full lap, crossing high trails and the formidable Thorong La while enjoying superb views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri mountains and the ever-changing scenery. Based in teahouses throughout, we spend time in villages inhabited by many of Nepal’s different peoples, both Buddhist and Hindu.
