]]> The Everest region is the most famous trekking region in Nepal. One of the hidden gems of this region is the Gokyo lake, a high altitude lake. The sparkling, pristine blue and green waters of the Gokyo Lakes are one of Nepal’s most memorable sights. They comprise the highest freshwater lake system in the world, at around 5,000 meters. The Gokyo Lakes trek is ideal for people who want to trek in the Everest region, but who want more variety of views and fewer nights spent at very high altitude. The mountains seen on this trek are majestic with 8000-meter peaks soaring above all else.

We start the trip by flight from Kathmandu to Lukla and start to walk further into the mountains. Phakding is the first stop after Lukla, the next day we head towards Namchebazar, and after that Dole and finally Kalapattar. The villages which we come across in the trek are as beautiful as the panoramic view of the mountains.
