Hiking
The Cho La pass is located at 5,420 meters and connects Gokyo to Lobuche. Strategically it is therefore a very important step as it connects the Gokyo valley with that of Everest. The Cho La pass is often covered in snow: crampons are recommended.

Hiking
From Gokyo the tour leads over the Ngozumpa Glacier to Dragnag, the starting point for crossing the Cho La Pass, the classic transition to the Khumbu Glacier. The ascent to the pass at 5,420 m is more strenuous than expected. From Cho La pass there is still a long way to go to Dughla in the valley below the Khumbu Glacier.
