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. |
