Trek to the serene Gokyo Lakes and speculate at the clandestine landscapes and the stunning Himalayan vistas from atop Gokyo Ri

Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri Trek is a beautiful journey to the enticing Gokyo lakes and Gokyo Ri, which is one of the most amazing viewpoints for great views of Mt. Everest and other Himalayan peaks. The 14-day trip begins in Kathmandu, where we visit several UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri Trek is an alternative to classical treks in the Everest region. Instead, it takes us to the turquoise Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri, which provides exceptional views of Mt. Everest and other Himalayan peaks. We also get to marvel at the massive Ngozumpa Glacier and the Gokyo Valley from Gokyo Ri.

Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri trek is for those who like to walk in the Everest region without the physical stress of reaching Everest Base Camp or crossing high passes in the vicinity. It is instead for travelers who wish to try something new in the Everest region.

Route Map

FAQs

There are several major trails in the Khumbu Sherpa Valley of the Everest region. Depending on the popularity, duration and difficulty level, hikers have several options to choose from. The most popular trekking routes are Everest Base Camp Trek 14 or 16 Days, Everest Base Camp Luxury Lodge Trek, Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri Trek, Everest Base Camp Trek via Gokyo Lakes and Cho La Pass, and Everest High Passes Trek. Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri Trek is one of the easiest treks and we highly recommend it those who are looking for adequate scenic beauty on an easy hike. Himalayan Glacier has mindfully designed the trek itinerary so that hikers get to enjoy spectacular views of Mt. Everest and other high Himalayan peaks from the top of Gokyo Ri and at the same time savor the exquisite beauty of the Gokyo Valley, Sherpa villages, and the greater Khumbu Valley. The only challenging factor on this trek is the number of walking days on uneven terrains for several hours each day and a little exposure to altitude, otherwise the trek is moderate and a pleasant walk.
Gokyo Lakes and Gokyo Ri trek is best done in pre-monsoon season i.e. from March to May and post-monsoon season i.e. from late September to December. It is also possible to do this trek in February and early September but the trek is best preferred during the above months.
Absolutely yes! Under normal circumstances, our booked trips are guaranteed to run. You will still be doing your trek even if other trekkers cancel their trip. This is the reason why Himalayan Glacier is different from other agencies, who usually cancel their whole trip a month or even a week before the trip date. We are a tailor-made company and the number of participants does not stop our operation. If your trip has been canceled by your operator and you are in a last-minute stress, remember to find us to sort out your trip decisions. Please feel free to book your stress-free holidays with us. Unless there is a situation which is out of control such as a political riot, natural disaster, pandemic, epidemic or weather catastrophes, our trips are 100% guaranteed to run.
Himalayan Glacier offers a lifetime deposit policy which allows you the flexibility to transfer your deposit to anyone or any other trip. If you wish to cancel your booked trips, certain cancelation charges apply. Please visit our booking terms and conditions for detailed information.
Rest assured that you will be in good hands with our experienced trek leaders, who have multiple years of experience trekking in Nepal. All of our guides, known as Himalayan Glacier dedicated Guides, are locals with a deep understanding of the mountain, its people, culture, health, hygiene, and most importantly, your safety. They are fluent in English and will be able to communicate effectively with you throughout the trek. Our guides are passionate about their work and will ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable trekking experience.
After a long day’s hike, a relaxing night of comfortable sleep is very much crucial for the next day’s walk. Keeping your comfort into account, we make sure to book the best lodge with two beds in each room and western toilet facilities wherever available. Normally, the beds are clean and comfortable with an electric blanket (upon availability) and attached bathroom for most nights. The room’s temperature is usually maintained at 10-12°C / 50-54°F.
