    Hiking

    Gokyo is a small Nepalese village located at an altitude of 4,750 meters. Its location is fantastic: Gokyo is in fact located on the shores of Tsho Gokyo Lake. From Gokyo you can reach the summit of Gokyo Ri, from where you can admire beautiful views of the Himalayas.

    Hiking

    One of the highest human settlements in the world. Almost the whole place offers guest rooms for hiking tourists. In harsh winters, the inhabitants left the village to spend the winter in the lower (milder) Namche. 📷👍

    Hiking

    There are several nice lodges there, it can get very cold here at night. So bring a good sleeping bag.
