It is well said that the Everest region refers to the most stunning & popular mountain areas among all. This short route trek is especially designed for those who have got only a limited time to discover the most famous beauties of Nepal offering breath-taking high mountain scenery through the Khumbu - Sherpa country. The trek has got 2 possible routes either Renjo Pass trek or an alternative itinerary. The trail to Gokyo offers a gradual ascent up the valley passing through patches of birch and rhododendron forest. There the elusive musk deer can sometimes be seen. The trail passes the small yak-grazing settlements to reach the Gokyo lakes. The Gokyo Peak (5480m) ascent can be taken as the one of the highlights of the trek. There we have good time to savor the incredible scenery. From there we can observe the magnificent views of Everest (8848m), Makalu, Cho Oyo (8153m) and Lhotse (8511m), to name but a few. The Renjo Pass route is off the usual beaten track. At that place, We are rewarded with a fine view of the Gokyo lakes on one side, the Rermo Pokhari lakes on the other side, and a myriad of snowy peaks in the background offering the incredible atmosphere. The alternative route begins from Gokyo is much easier. From there, the trail makes the descend along the opposite bank of the Dudh Kosi.
