Home » Gokyo Lake Trek
Gokyo Lake Trek begins at the mountain airstrip at Lukla forty five minute flight from Kathmandu. Our trekking's goal is the high altitude lakes of Ghokyo at over 4200 meters. Less frequented than the E.B.C route the trek provides some tremendous high altitude trekking and a visit to the second largest glacier in the World. From the top of Gokyo Ri there are some magnificent mountain views including Everest. We trek down to Lukla and fly back to Kathmandu.
