Gokyo Valley Trek

Gokyo Valley Trek

The trek begins at Lukla and slowly moves towards Phakding for the first day through Sherpa villages taking fresh air of green forest and the river. We meet local people spinning prayer’s wheels with Om Mani Padme Hum. The flocks of horses and mules might make us wait for photography. Before reaching to Top Danda.

The Gokyo lake is awesome and we stay there in Gokyo looking at the serene lake and the walk to see the Glacier. The next early morning, we climb up to the Gokyo Ri. The beauty of the high mountain combination with glacier is excellent. The Gokyo lake with the village and Mt. Cholatse is one of the best parts for the photo. The view of Mt. Everest from here is what people can best enjoy. Then we come down to Gokyo and take a good rest. From the next day, we walk down the same trail as we take from the beginning day.
