Best Gokyo lake trek with ebc

I recently completed the Everest Base Camp with Gokyo Lake Trek, organized by Adventure A One Treks. It was an amazing experience! The trek was incredibly well organized and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He made sure we were safe and comfortable throughout the entire journey and was able to answer any questions we had. The views were breathtaking and the experience was unforgettable. The trek was challenging, but the staff were incredibly supportive and encouraging. I highly recommend Adventure A One Treks to anyone looking to do Everest Base Camp with Gokyo Lake Trek. They are professional, reliable and provide a great service. Five stars!

Frequently Asked Questions

It entirely depends upon the itinerary chosen as set by the company when booked. 

Normally the trek first leads to Gokyo valley and the glacial lakes. After enjoying a great time around scenic view-points of Gokyo-RI, then heading towards Everest base camp.

Involves high Chola Pass to cross at above 5,420 m / 17,782 feet high. Which forms a boundary between Everest base camp and Gokyo valley. One can choose visiting first to Everest Base Camp and climb of Kalapathar and the cross Chola pass to Gokyo.

The trek is not difficult and tough as one expects, as you are walking around world highest region of Himalayas. The toughness is climb on high altitude, taking slow with an easy gradual pace will overcome the difficulty. The walks leads on well define trails with steep ups and down.

The hardest is climb on top of Gokyo-Ri and Kalapathar Hill. Crossing over Chola pass, the rest of the walk is moderate, taking slow and steady. Having enough short rest will be the best and then continue with a slow stride, enjoying the surrounding views.

The maximum altitude on this trek varies from Gokyo-RI at 5,357 m / 17, 575 feet. Cho-La Pass at 5,420 m / 17, 782 feet high and 

Everest Base Camp 5,364 m / 17, 598 feet. The highest above all is Kalapathar a rocky hilltop at 5,544 m / 18, 519 feet high.

Offers the closest grand views of Mt. Everest with an array of beautiful peaks, and a famous hilltop for views of Mt. Everest.

Most large villages and main settlements Lukla, Phakding, Namche Bazaar and Tengboche, Lobuche, and Gorakshep offers nice good lodge accommodation. Including Dole, Machhermo and Gokyo has nice cozy rooms in their lodges for the overnight stand.

Most lodges on route provides comprehensive food menus, served in a nice large warm dining room. But at Thagnak, Dzongla and Gorakshep the rooms are simple, serving basic foods, due to high altitude and cold terrain.

Higher around Gokyo on route to Gorakshep, attached bath and toilets are not available. All guest has to share the common toilet and bathe, due to the nature of arid and high landscapes.

No worries, the trail from Lukla onwards to Gokyo Lake is well defined, as well as a route to Gokyo-Ri high ridge. However, in snow condition, it will be quite tough to find the right path. Our guide are experts of the areas so there won’t be much of a problem, as long one is fit and able.
