Itinerary

The journey of the Everest High Pass trek continues as we ascend from Thaknak to Dzongla on the ninth day. For this part of the Everest Three Passes Trek map, we advise trekkers to prepare a little extra than the other days. That is because it takes a total of 7 hours to reach Dzangola from Thaknak. On our way, we also ascend to the second pass of the Everest High Pass Trek Circuit, Cho La Pass (5420 meters).

Imagine ascending from 4,750 meters to 5420 meters and again descending to 4830 meters. The walk will certainly be more difficult than usual. However, the views offered by the Thaknak-Cho La Pass-Dzongla route highly motivate the trekkers. The route starts with a steep upscaling and then gradually leads into some flatlands. Remember that, as you ascend the steep, the routes become slightly challenging until you finally reach the Cho La Pass.

We will spend some time in the Chol La Pass before descending to Dzongla. Located at an altitude of 4830 meters, Dzongla is a small village with a few tea houses where we can rest for the night. As we reach the village and explore a little, we can get some spectacular views of Ama Dablam and Taboche Moreover, trekkers also get a mild visibility of Cholatse Lake.

This day marks the end of the Everest High Pass Trek as we take a flight to Kathmandu from Lukla Airport. Within 35 minutes of a scenic flight from Lukla, trekkers finally reach Kathmandu and then take their way.

Finally, we have reached the second last day of the Everest High Pass Trek with a descending trek from Namche to Lukla. We follow a rather developed path accompanied by lush forests, villages, valleys, and views of mountains. Within 7 hours of walking, trekkers can find themselves in Lukla. Even if we start the trek early in the morning, let's say 8 a.m., we will reach Lukla by 3 in the evening.

So, we will rest for the sixteenth day in Lukla, have a proper dinner, and prepare ourselves to return to Kathmandu via flight on the next day.

Do you remember Namche Bazaar? The last highly advanced and developed checkpoint that we stopped by while ascending the Everest Three Passes journey. On the fifteenth day, our destination of the day would be Namche Bazaar. This place is just 6 kilometers far from Tengboche which needs the trekkers to walk for five hours.

Once in Namche Bazaar, you can expect to get a more luxurious stay, a high variety of food, and many other facilities that were not available at the higher altitude. Make sure that you take proper advantage of being in Namche Bazaar and shop to the fullest. Explore the area and then get back to the hotel for dinner and an overnight stay.

We have finally conquered all three high passes of the Everest region and started a descending journey. Today's walk begins after having breakfast in Chhukung and walking through the downward route towards Tengboche. Let us tell you that Tengboche is one of the holiest monasteries in the entire Khumbu region.

As we start the walk from Chhukung, we need to cross a bridge and follow a path that leads to Pangboche village. We admire the beautiful settlement at Pangboche and walk further lower until we reach Tengboche. As you reach near Tengboche, you can hear monks' hymns, and bells, and see so many religious artifacts. Trekkers spend a peaceful night after having dinner in a tea house or lodge in Tengboche.

Today, the walk can extend for a little longer hours because we cover a total distance of 11 km. Descending from Lobuche (4940m) to Chhukung (4730m) takes some strength and stamina for the trekkers. From Lobuche, the route ascends through a rocky and rugged path crossing the Khumbu Glacier. After a few hours of walking, we finally reached Kongma-la Pass (5535m). This is the last pass among the three passes of the Everest Trekking Circuit.

Kongma-La is also an equally exciting high pass to spend some time. We reach the pass after crossing the glacier and enjoying heart-throbbing views of several mountain peaks, valleys, and settlements. Just keep delving into the wilderness of the Everest Three Pass Circuit and enjoy every moment. Due to the risks of altitude sickness and low oxygen levels, we only spend a short time at Kongma-la Pass and then descend towards Chhukung (4730m).

Imagine walking the Everest Circuit and not visiting the Everest Base Camp, shall we do that? No, with the Global Adventure Trekking team, they won't be done. Therefore, on the twelfth day, we go for a stroll at Everest Base Camp, located at an altitude of 5365 meters. From the Everest Base Camp, trekkers can get mind-blowing views of Changtse, Pumori, Nuptse, and Lhotse.

Moreover, your stay at EBC also lets you meet several mountaineers who are on their way to ascend the summit of Mount Everest (8850 meters). After some time of spending quality time at the Everest Base Camp, we return to Gorakshep. Trekkers will have their lunch at the hotel in Gorakshep and then trek down to Lobuche. We cover a total distance of 10km on the day and walk for around 6 hours in this part of the Everest High Pass Trek.

Today is the day when we set foot on the highest point of the entire Everest Trek Circuit. On our way from Lobuche to Gorakshep, we stop by Kala Kalapatthar (5545 meters) for a short time. This place offers the most amazing and stunning view of Mount Everest one can get from a lower altitude. As the altitude is too high, the oxygen level is thin, resulting in chances of weaknesses and mainly, altitude sickness. Therefore, we take a quick stroll and descend towards Gorakshep.

From Kalapatthar to Gorakshep, the Everest High Pass Trek has a difficult, slippery yet adventurous route. The journey today can become a little more difficult than many other days at the Everest High Pass Trek. However, descending from Kalapatthar to Gorakshep does not take much time. Therefore, the trekkers reach the hotel at Gorakshep within just two hours of walking from Kalapatthar.

Currently, we are at an altitude of 4830 meters and last amongst the three high passes of the Everest Region is yet to be conquered. This means that our journey is still on the ascending side. As soon as trekkers have their breakfast, the guides from Global Adventure Trekking escort them towards Lobuche. Lobuche is also the base of the Lobuche Peak (6119m).

The trek from Dzongla to Lobuche of the Everest Three Passes Trek will offer trekkers even closer and clearer views of the glaciers and mountains. Moreover, you can also experience that the trail gets more rugged and rough as we ascend higher and higher. We encourage trekkers to enjoy the trip while also taking care of their health and hygiene.

After 5 hours of walking and 7 kilometers of distance coverage, we finally reach the stop of the day, Lobuche. Global Adventure Trekking team arranges good food and accommodation at Lobuche for the night.

Early in the morning, trekkers will have their breakfast in the hotel and then go for an exploration of Gokyo Ri (53567m/17,775ft). Gokyo Ri is a beautiful place for watching a mesmerizing view of the Everest region. You will be astonished by the rugged trails, surrounding landscapes, and the local villages settled by Sherpas. Reaching from Gokyo Lake to Thaknak takes around 5 hours.

Our guides and porters take care of all your requirements throughout this part of the Everest High Pass Trek / Everest Three Passes Trek. Nevertheless, we suggest trekkers to be aware about the risks of altitude sickness. After reaching Thaknak, trekkers will check in at the hotel and freshen up. As the trek only takes 5 hours, trekkers will still have some time to explore the Thaknak village.

Today is the second acclimatization day during the Everest High Pass or Everest Three Passes Trek. On the seventh day, we acclimatize at Gokyo. You will love to see the landscape, lakes, and other scenarios from Gokyo. There are also a couple of side treks that you can do while you stay in Gokyo Valley and they are Walk to 5th Lake or Cho Oyu Base Camp.

Walking to the 5th Lake (around 3-4 hours) is an adventurous day hike that you can do during your stay at Gokyo. You will get to explore five out of 19 lakes in the Gokyo Valley. Besides, trekking to the Cho Oyu Base Camp (900m/16,076ft) also offers an amazing experience. Both of these side treks provide mesmerizing views of the Himalayas of Nepal along with some other landscapes and greeneries.

After that trek, we return to Gokyo for an overnight stay after having dinner. As there are no lodges or hotels in Gokyo, both of these days will be spent in tents.

From Lungden, the Everest High Pass Trek route takes you towards Gokyo Lake and on the way, we also walk across one of the three passes, Renjo La Pass (5435 meters). As we are expecting to ascend over 5000 meters, the route certainly gets more and more difficult. Nevertheless, the rocky path, juniper, and pine forests make the entire trekking adventurous and a little challenging, which is mostly loved by trek enthusiasts.

Within a few hours, trekkers will reach Renjola Pass. We encourage trekkers to take as many photos and videos as possible for memory. However, due to the thin air and extreme weather conditions, we will not spend much time here.

You can enjoy some of the most stunning and amazing views of different snow-covered peaks like Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, and Cho Oyu from Renjola Pass. Moreover, from Renjola Pass, the Everest Three Passes Trek extends towards Gokyo Lake (4700 meters).

Gradual ascends and the increase in rugged trails mark the beginning of the upper part of the Everest Three Passes trekking map. On the fifth day, we will set a strong mindset to rest at an altitude of 4500 meters. The first phase of the Thame to Lungden Trek hike takes trekkers through different herbs and pine forests.

Moreover, the trekkers can also experience the change in landscapes and surrounding environment. Furthermore, the air also gets thinner and the cold temperature might lead to higher chances of altitude sickness. Walking from Thame to Lungden also takes you through several yak and sheep grazing pastures. After 5 hours of trek, we finally reach Lungden, where trekkers will get their rooms, have dinner, and rest for the night.

How did you like your two-night stay in Namche? Now, it's time to move on from Namche because we are ascending our next checkpoint, Thame on the fourth day. As we leave Namche, the Everest High Pass Trek map becomes a little more confusing as the route or trail starts becoming rough, rugged, and very less developed.

Trekkers will have to be extra cautious while ascending further and the views that they get to enjoy are all worth it. Let us tell you that Thame and Marlung are two of the most beautiful villages of the Renjo La route in the Everest High Pass Trek. As we leave Namche, the route takes us towards the river, and by crossing that river, we finally enter the Thame village. The walk only takes 4 hours so, trekkers will have excessive time to interact with the locals and understand their culture.

Wake up on day three and we are not advancing to any other checkpoints today. As we have reached above 3000 meters and the Everest Three Passes route ahead of us is not such promising as it had been till Namche, we take one more day to enjoy our stay at Namche Bazaar.

Namche is also famous for the hardened yak cheese (Chhurpi) and the Tibetan artifacts sold here. You can get some as souvenirs. Besides, the acclimatization day does not mean that trekkers should stay idle in their hotels or guesthouses. Global Adventure Trekking team encourages trekkers to go for some side trips during their stay at Namche. You can go for the Khumjung Monastery Hike and hike up to the Everest View Hotel.

Khumjung is one of the famous monasteries in the Khumbu region around 2.5 hours of walk away. This monastery is located in the Khumjung Village which sits at the foot of the sacred mountain Khumbiyela. You will love the place because of its landscape, and the chants of the Buddhist mantras that bring peace to your mind and soul. After that, you can also visit the Everest View Hotel, the only 5-star in the world located at such a high altitude. The hotel sits lavishly at an altitude of 3750 meters / 13000 feet and offers majestic views of several mountain peaks including Lhotse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, and the mighty Mount Everest.

After the side trek, the trekkers will return to Namche and have another night's stay in the same hotel as they had in the previous night.

On the second day of the Everest High Pass Trek / Everest Three Passes Trek, we reach one of the most advanced towns in the entire Khumbu region, Namche Bazaar. Namche Bazaar is famous as the trading hub between Nepal and Tibet. In this place, you can almost all the facilities required like ATMs, WiFi, and Mobile Networks, and the hotels are also very cozy and facilitated. Moreover, there are also high varieties on the food menu.

Nevertheless, the route from Phakding to Namche Bazaar is a 5-hour-long journey covering 11 km of distance. However, this part of the Everest High Pass Trek is not very highly difficult. That being said, you can also expect to explore flora, fauna, and other Sherpa villages during your ascend from Phakding to Namche Bazaar. Besides, the Phakding to Namche route also offers you a magical view of the mighty Mount Everest (8850m), Ama Dablam Mountain (6812m), and Themserku (6608m). Another major attraction of Namche Bazaar is the Hilary Bridge.
