Overview

The Gokyo Renjo La Pass Trek provides Nepal’s Everest trail with less traffic and displays breathtaking mountain views. The 14-day hike passes above 5,300 meters to Renjo La Pass. This route gives hikers an undisturbed mountain adventure without tourists since it avoids the crowded Base Camp trails yet provides breathtaking views of four of Earth’s top six peaks, including Everest (8,848 m) and Cho Oyu (8,188 m).

Travelers on their adventure will see the Gokyo Lakes which stand as a series of freshwater lakes positioned between 4,700 meters and 5,000 meters altitude. The lakes stand out in both the Ramsar Convention and worldwide due to their position as the top freshwater lake system on Earth. From Gokyo Ri’s peak of 5,357 meters hikers enjoy superior views of the complete Himalayas panorama surrounding them.

The trip begins with an airport flight to Lukla (2,860 m) which shows off stunning mountain views throughout the short landing process. After leaving Lukla, the gentle path moves up through Sherpa settlements while passing by herds of yaks and alpine regions. This route asks for strong hikers who know how to trek without basic experience, thanks to its tall heights and everyday walks of 6 to 7 hours.
