Itinerary description
Αντιγράφω από την ιστοσελίδα
As we acquire tallness through the trail, the Cho La Lake starts to show up, the Ama Dablam manages the scope of mountains on the south, and Cholatse takes off on the west.
The last climb up to the Cho La can be attractive as the path bends cycle a chasm. The slope is steep yet exacerbated by stones over some of which we should scramble. The only thing is the trek-lover can relate how the challenges boost their energy and strength.
The way to Dragnag is long but not troublesome. We have to pass many Sherpa villages before we get to Gokyo. So, Dragnag is among the Sherpa villages that is home to various nice lodges. Our path carries us to the edge of the Ngozumpa glacial mass, the most extended icy group in Nepal. Through the trail of Yak Kharka, we will climb the famous Cho La pass.
We will start climbing a gentle grassy uphill until we reach the snowy glacier. We can see the Gokyo Ri, Renjo La pass a bit far and Ngozumpa glacier. We have to climb a steep snowy trail to enjoy the view of frozen Gokyo lake surrounded by beautiful snowy mountains.
Arriving at the opposite side of the ice sheet, we see the second Gokyo Lake on the arrangement of six lakes. A brief distance away is the third Gokyo Lake Gokyo Village stands there aside. The blue green water looks so beautiful surrounded by mountains. The reward of crossing the rocky and snowy trail across the moraine and hill is the stunning view of Gokyo valley. Overnight.
