| Fixed Departure Everest Gokyo Trekking 2013 |
 Everest
Gokyo Trekking is one of mostly followed route by the
trekkers. Beneath the southern slopes of Sagarmatha (Mt.
Everest 8848m- world highest mountain) lies the rugged
and remote land of the Sherpas. Incredibly shaped mountains,
whose ice-capped summits rise sharply above sheer rock
walls, tower above stone their close association with
mountaineering history and exploration. The Gokyo Valley
is perhaps the most spectacular of the valleys in the
Everest region and while the trail to Everest Base Camp
gets close to the world's highest mountain there are those
who suggest the view from Gokyo Peak offers the best panoramic
view in the region. The trail to Gokyo has a network of
small lodges which have recently seen big improvements
in food and accommodation facilities. We start our trek
from Lukla. This trek is fantastic, that visits all of
the high valleys of the Khumbu with extra time at Gokyo
to explore the upper valley. Our camp at Gorkashep provides
the opportunity to ascend to kalapatter 5,545m for more
spectacular views of the surrounding mountains (Cho-Oyo
8153m, Makalu 8475m, Lhotse 8511m), including the black
rocky ramparts of Mt. Everest's (8,848m.) southwest face.
We also have a day to visit Everest base camp at the foot
of the immensely impressive Khumbu icefall. Our return
journey takes us to Tengboche monastery, the most important
center of Buddhism in the area, before descending to Lukla
and fly back to Katmandu the next day. |
