Gokyo Lakes Trek - Less Trodden Hiking in Everest
The Gokyo Lakes Trek is one the most picturesque of the beaten route in the Everest region. This Everest Gokyo RI Trek climbs up the Gokyo Ri and crosses the Renjo La pass to make a circle of hiking on Everest. Probably the best alternative to classic trekking to the Everest base camp if you wish to trek a relatively less trodden section in the Everest region. Undoubtedly this trek exhibits solitary valleys, pristine turquoise lakes, stunning glaciers,s and a parade of snowy peaks together. We have designed this Everest Gokyo Ri trek itinerary with the hike to the Gokyo Ri, crossing the Renjo La pass to explore both Gokyo and Bhote Koshi valleys in the Everest region. Arguably the Renjo la pass offers the best vantage point in the Everest region. Notably, four of the eight highest peaks of Lhotse, Makalu, Cho - Oyu, and Everest hover on the horizon with sparkling lakes. Thus it makes a circuit trekking rather than retracing the same way as most of the classic Gokyo Renjo pass trek programs.
