Overview

The Gokyo Lakes are a series of lakes that many trekkers visit during their Gokyo Valley trek. The lakes–Baiju, Dopche, Lagnam, Ngozumpa, Pangbuk and Pangshang–are all downstream from the glacier, and are located within the Sagarmatha National Park area in northern Nepal.

Why Gokyo lakes Trek?

There are many people who loves Trekking but they do not prefer the busiest routes. For those people Gokyo Lake Trek is the good option.

Until now Gokyo Lake Trek is not that busy or famous, we cannot say what happens later. But it’s really an amazing experience to be in.

And also you can walk through the amazing Ngozumba glacier which is also one of the biggest glacier in the Khumbu area.

Trip Highlights

picturesque Sherpa villages before crossing a suspension bridge next to one of the biggest glaciers in the Khumbu region, the Ngozumpa glacier

We take in the sunrise/sunset view at Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, and other peaks from the magnificent viewpoint at Gokyo Ri (5357 meters).

This trek is particularly special because it takes us away from crowded trails and touristy destinations.
