We cross Gokyo glacier and Dzomba glacier than descend downhill to get Thangnag. It’s an alpine trail or a climbing route through the tricky landscape in high mountains. Hikers can spend often their spare time rambling and climbing in preparation for the Chola pass. Thangnag/Dragnag offers nice lodges with modern facilities.
The trek through Cho La Pass is a rather difficult route, requires some mountaineering experience and well equipped. We suggest you bring warm clothes and some extra food during the off-season trekking. However, in peak season, Dzonghla guesthouses are open. Cross Renjo La and Chola Pass are listed under the Everest two-pass treks in the Himalayas. Likewise, the pass is not difficult but it is steep and involves a glacier crossing. There are no technical problems and there is a thin path in the rocks beside the icefall.

Chhukung Ri is a little peak located directly above Chhukung village. The climb to Chhukung Ri involves some easy scrambling near the summit. As you are on the summit, you will have a fantastic view of the Ama Dablam and Amphu Labsa peaks. We descend back to Chhukung to spend the overnight.

A tough day that we need to wake up very early morning. You can have breakfast at around 1:30 and begin to climb. Have in mind that we need to get summit before noon because in the afternoon it’s strong and windy. The trail moves up beyond the base camp for several hundred meters before striking off the steep hillside.
Furthermore climbing higher the slope of the landscape narrower. Following a ridgeline leads to an exhilarating and exposed traverse onto the snout of the summit glacier. The guides will fix a rope if it is required. A steep snow slope leads us onto the summit ridge. Both fixed rope and climbers’ rope will be used during the climb for safety. Use fixed rope after successfully climbing on the rock. The length of the rope will usually be 350 meters.
However, the length of the rope is depended upon the season and crevasses. There are two newly formed crevasses which are approximately 3 and 4 meters long. Gokyo Treks and the expedition’s expert guide will help you to cross to reach the summit. After enjoying the views, descend down to Island Peak Base Camp. After cleaning the base camp we leave immediately and walk further to Chhukung. Evening, celebrating our successful Island Peak climb.

Listen to your body, trek gradually enjoying the best of culture and nature while giving enough time for your body to adapt to the changing atmosphere. Drink a lot of fluid & keep your body hydrated.

High Passes Trek Traveller’s Review
High Passes Trek with Island Peak climbing in Everest Zone
My son suggested a hike in the Everest area and I jumped at the chance. We study about five companies and settled with Gokyo Treks & Expedition after checking out staff insurance, trip reviews, and licensing of the companies. Finally, we found this company as a genuine tour operator and we book everything with Ammar and his agency. Ammar met us on our arrival at the hotel and ensured our guided trip to Kathmandu for the second day went well.
Bimal was our guide, he met us at the airport and brought us to our hotel. He led us to the airport for the short flight to Lukla getting us through customs swiftly. We spent 16 days with him; he was remarkable the whole journey taking care of our needs and keeping us safe.
We had asked Ammar to put us in the best lodges and he did modify a better guesthouse with a cost difference. Overall we had an excellent adventure and I would recommend using Gokyo Treks travel agency for any trip to Nepal. – Henry and Vanessa Robbins, Zermatt, Switzerland
Response from Gokyo Treks Nepal
Thank you Henry for your time to send us a review. We hope to serve you again for your 8k mountains soon in the Himalayas.
Everest high passes with Island peak climbing was great
We were a group of four (my wife, our daughter and her boyfriend) and we started on October 20th from Kathmandu, flying into Lukla and trekking for 16 days up Everest base camp and Kalapattar. This was our third time of trekking in Nepal before we had been in Langtang/Gosainkund and in the Annapurna region up to ABC, and the Everest region is certainly the most spectacular one. But, obviously, it is also the most crowded one.
Ammar had been a perfect guide for us, extremely helpful in choosing the proper lodges, getting our food ready in time, and just making life as easy and entertaining as possible. Although he is young, he has a lot of experience in these regions, and, what is very helpful, a lot of friends among the locals. This can be useful: for example, the boss at the airport in Lukla is his friend.
You might have heard of problems arising in Lukla when the weather is bad for several days and the planes cannot fly. Then tourists are getting nervous because they might miss their international flights. And here Ammar´s friend would be very helpful and find you a place on a plane for flying out. Furthermore, Ammar´s rates are quite decent, much cheaper than when you book with one of the large trekking organizations.
Finally, he managed to choose three porters for us which were the best we had. They even came back several times, after they had reached the day’s destination, to help us with our own bags. I had never experienced that with other porters we had so far. Don´t hesitate to ask further questions, I am happy to answer, and had a good time there. Best wishes, and namaste (as a training for Nepal )
Response from Gokyo Treks Nepal
Thank you so much and the great review
3 Passes Trek Experience
Great experience on the 3 passes trek end of November. We choose Gokyo Treks and Expedition to arrange our trip to the Himalayas. Ammar booked accommodation for the Kathmandu city tour and 3 passes for adventure travel. Felt very safe throughout the trip with my guide Som Shrestha. Recommend yak tracks on the passes around this time of the year and a good sleeping bag, as it was sometimes – 5 degrees Celsius at night inside the room.
The 3 passes hike price were very competitive, hilltops are offering terrific views but the trail is often sleeper and snowy. The trip was not the easiest nor dangerous. Other than that, we are totally happy with the Gokyo Treks agency service. – Patrick and Robbins Derby, in North Hollywood, California.
