The trek to Gokyo provides an excellent opportunity to
see an eyeful view of the Mt. Everest at close range.
This trek is to be considered
as an alternative trek to the traditional Everest Base
Camp trek that offers magnificent view of the mountain
peaks and the Ngozumpa Glacier- the largest in the Nepal
Himalayas.
The image of of this region
is associated with the soaring view of the most popular
mountains in Nepal, at an altitude of 8000m including
Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu which are clearly
visible from Gokyo Ri (5483m.) above Gokyo Lake.
One of the most remarkable
feature of the trek is the view of tremendous ice ridge
between Cho Oyu and Gyachung (2922m) located in Khumbu
region.
This extraordinary trek
is also worthy in a sense that it offers an ample opportunity
to explore the amazing destination and its impressive
sight, which is beyond human imagination.
