Jiri Everest Gokyo Vally Trek

29 Days [ Price: starting from USD $ 1580][Special Discount for student, researcher ,journalist, Group trekkers ,budget trekkers, & family trekkers]

This is the classic trek of the region, but the trail from the road head at Jiri and back to Jiri. Initially, the trek is strenuous as you are crossing the country against the grain of the mountains and rivers. You will pass through beautiful scenery of rhododendron forests, fields of barley and apple orchards, as you climb ridges to descend in to green river valleys. You begin to get a real feel for the country and way of life as you share the route with local porters carrying all manner of goods up beyond the road head and pass other goods flowing down towards the markets in Kathmandu.
This trek explores the breathtaking Gokyo valley which is located adjacent of the Khumbu. Gokyo is a land of high altitude lakes and icy glaciers. Here, a hike to the high vantage point of Gokyo Ri (5350-m) will reward you with views of four of the eight highest mountains on earth - all in one panorama! From here, one can see more of Everest (8848-m) and the three other Himalayan giants - Cho Oyu (8153-m), Lhotse (8501-m) and Makalu (8463-m) and some of the great Glaciers, mainly the Ngozumpa Glacier.
The small herding settlement of Gokyo (4750m) lies on the banks of the third lake in a series of small turquoise mountain lakes and on the ridge above Gokyo, the four peaks above 8000m of Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse and Makalu expose themselves. In addition to this you can have a look at the tremendous ice ridge between Cho Oyu and Gyachung (7922m), considered one of the most dramatic panoramas in the Khumbu region. There are many options for additional exploration and high altitude walking, including the crossing of Cho La, a 5420m-high pass into Khumbu and a hike to Gokyo Ri.
