Point culminant
Renjo La pass, 5,360 m
Ce qui le rend unique
The Gokyo trek via the Renjo La pass combines the turquoise lakes of Gokyo, among the most beautiful in Nepal, with the crossing of two passes above 5,300 m. Over 14 to 17 days the route offers, from the top of the Renjo La, a simultaneous view of four peaks above 8,000 m: Everest, Cho Oyu, Makalu and Lhotse.
After the flight to Lukla and the classic climb to Namche Bazaar, the trail branches west towards Thame before crossing the Renjo La (5,360 m) to reach the Gokyo lakes. The second pass, the Cho La (5,420 m), then links back to the Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar route before the return to Lukla.
What makes it unique
The turquoise lakes of Gokyo are among the most beautiful in Nepal. Crossing the Renjo La gives a 360° view of Everest, Cho Oyu, Makalu and Lhotse — four 8,000ers in a single glance. A complete route combining lakes, high passes and panoramas over four peaks above 8,000 m, for a particularly rich visual experience.
