Description
Gokyo Lake trek with Gokyo-Ri is one of the best trekking route of Nepal, which is in Khumbu, Everest region.
The Gokyo trek is a breathtaking adventure that takes trekkers through the heart of the Everest region, offering an alternative perspective to the traditional Everest Base Camp trek. Nestled in the Sagarmatha National Park, the Gokyo Valley presents a serene and less crowded route, providing stunning views of the Everest and Cho Oyu ranges. This trek is known for its pristine turquoise lakes, towering peaks, and the picturesque Gokyo Ri, which offers one of the most panoramic views in the entire Khumbu region.
The journey typically begins with a scenic flight from Kathmandu to Lukla, a small airstrip perched on a mountainside. Lukla serves as the gateway to the Everest region and the starting point for the Gokyo trek. The flight itself is an adventure, offering aerial views of the Himalayas and a dramatic landing on the short runway.
