Everest Base Camp Trek with Gokyo Lake via Chola Pass is “the” ultimate adventure in the Himalayas. It is the most beautiful and breathtaking trek in Nepal. The trail will follow the same route that previous famous expeditions to Mt. Everest have walked through with an addition of Chola Pass and the turquoise lake village of Gokyo.
The trek to the Everest Base Camp at 5,364m to the base of the world’s tallest mountain will take you over breathtaking suspension bridges, mysterious Buddhist monasteries, and into the heart of the hard working and exceptional Sherpa people, all towered over by some of highest and most stunningly beautiful mountains of the world. After conquering the Everest Base Camp, this treks summits over Chola Pass and guides you to the sacred turquoise Gokyo Lake.
Besides Mount Everest, some other prominent peaks visible during the trek include Lhotse (8501 m), Makalu (8463 m), Cho Oyu (8153 m), and Ama Dablam (6856 m).
