Gokyo Valley 17 days

The view from Gokyo is exceptionally beautiful and offers more of the legendary mountain than from the views from Kala Pattar though from a slightly greater distance the trek begins with a short flight to Lukla (2800m), from where you will proceed to Phakding on the day of arrival for an overnight stay. The next and more scenic day will be spent trekking up to Namche Bazaar (3442m), a colorful Saturday market while interacting with the Sherpas known for their warm-heartedness. A full day will be spent in Namche Bazaar, important for the acclimatization of climbers the subsequent days will see you pass through Phortse Tanga and Machhermo where the mountains are more spectacular while enjoying the breathtaking beauty of Ngozumba Glacier, the largest of its kind in the Nepal Himalayas. Passing through these villages will also give you a chance to have a look at the lifestyles of high altitude dwellers. The small herding settlement of Gokyo 4750m lies on the banks of the third lake in a series of small turquoise mountain lakes and on the ridge above Gokyo, the four peaks above 8000m of Cho You, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu expose themselves. If that is not enough have a look at the tremendous ice ridge between Cho You and Gyachung 7922m considered one of the most dramatic panoramas in the Khumbu region.
