This
Trek goes from Lukla to the
valley of the awesome Ngozumba
glacier, allowing enjoyment
of the huge panorama of Gokyo
Peak. It is not as snowy as
the Everest base camp trek,
but it allows one to appreciate
the silent grandeur basic to
the Himalayas. In addition,
the course includes beautiful
glacial lakes surrounded by
towering peaks. With the huge
glacier of Ngozumpa giving a
powerful setting, Everest (8848m)
and other peaks such as Cho
Oyu (8153m), Lhotse (8511m)
and Makalu (8463m) become transformed
from here. The view from here
is just fabulous, probably better
than from the base camp.
