Share
The Three Passes Trek is a complete Everest region circuit, a classic venture over some of the highest mountain passes in the world. Navigate the Kongma La (La means Pass) (5535 meters), the highest of the passes, to the Cho La (5420 meters). Incline to the pristine Gokyo Lakes before climbing to the Renjo La Pass (5345 meters).
While trekking the three passes, trekkers can trek and witness three unbelievable peaks: Gokyo Ri (5360m), Kala Patthar (5545m), and Chukkung Ri (5550m). Each of these peaks offer an exclusive viewpoint on the Everest region lunar-like landscape. Although you will be trekking and witnessing the peaks and passes, you will also be able to say you visited Everest Base Camp which is the most famous trek in the world, at the belly of the world’s tallest mountain. During the trek, we pass through two famous glaciers: Ngozumpa Glacier and Khumbu Glacier.
