Amid the 40-minute flight from Kathmandu to Lukla (9,186ft), we appreciate a standout amongst the most lovely air courses on the planet finishing on a slope encompassed by high rocky pinnacles.

From here, the perspective of Ngozumba ice sheet, the longest ice sheet of the Himalayas, is so interesting. Overnight in Gokyo.

B/L/D

On the off chance that we didn't climb the Gokyo Ri the earlier day, we can do that today. Moving to the highest point of Gokyo Ri is requesting as it is steep and takes around 3 to 4 hours to achieve the best. Be that as it may, the view of Gokyo town, on the edge of third lake neglected by Cholatse and the expansive Nogzumpa Glacier, is great. Seeing sunrays kissing Everest which towers over all the encompassing pinnacles is astonishing. We trek through the Ngazumpa Glacier to the mountain on the opposite side.

It will be a short climb today with an evening of rest which will set us up for long climbing days and height pick up to come.

B/L/D

Today will be one of the hardest days of the trek. The Cho La pass is not itself troublesome, but rather it is steep and includes an icy mass cross on the eastern side.

Nuptse, Khumbuste and Pumori are the mountains we can see from the base camp. We return to Gorak Shep for a decent night's rest. Overnight in Gorak Shep.

Nonetheless, the nightfall see from Kala Patthar is more honorable than the dawn see, so it is suggested that we visit Kala Patthar today amid dusk. As the setting sun's beams strike the snow-topped mountains, the subsequent view is mind blowing.
