Hike upto Gokyo Ri. This day early in the morning we have a steep climb up to the top of Gokyo Ri (5480m) – ample rewards to ones that attempt this trip. There are stunning views of the Gokyo valley, the massive Ngozumpa Glacier and an incredible panoramic view of the whole Khumbu Himalayas, such giants as Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Makalu (8481m), Cho-Oyu (8153m) and Gychung Kang (7922m). This day you will have packlunch. So you don't have to worry about to have a lunch back to Hotel. Hiking up the valley to see the fourth and fifth lakes is great as well. |
