Description of Gokyo Valley Via Renjo Pass Trek
Gokyo
Valley Via Renjo Pass Trek is certainly one of the
most stunning mountain areas on earth. This short
route enables trekkers who have a limited time to
discover the most famous beauties of Nepal. Set
amongst breath-taking high mountain scenery, the
route leads through the Khumbu - Sherpa country. 2
routes are possible: Renjo Pass trek or an
alternative itinerary. The trail to Gokyo is a
gradual ascent up the valley passing through patches
of birch and rhododendron forest where the elusive
musk deer can sometimes be seen. Through small
yak-grazing settlements, we reach the Gokyo lakes.
The Gokyo Peak (5480m) ascent is the one of the
highlights of this circuit. We stay here to savor
the incredible scenery, including magnificent views
of Everest (8848m), Makalu, Cho Oyo (8153m) and
Lhotse (8511m), to name but a few. The Renjo Pass
route is off the usual beaten track. At the pass, a
great view of the Gokyo lakes on one side, the Rermo
Pokhari lakes on the other side, and a myriad of
snowy peaks in the background provides this
incredible atmosphere. The alternative route is much
easier. From Gokyo, the trail descends along the
opposite bank of the Dudh Kosi. |
