EVEREST BASE CAMP TREKKING + GOKYO
With a total duration of 19 days, we'll live an experience that we'll remember all our life, visiting one of the most beautiful countries in the world, located in the Himalayas, to carry out one of the most spectacular trekking that can be done, visiting the Sherpa's land and passing through its beautiful mountain villages, some located over 4,000 meters, with awesome views towards the highest and most beautiful mountains on the planet, such as Ama Dablam, Cho Oyu, the formidable South wall of Lhotse, the Makalu, the Nuptse, and of course, the highest Everest.
The Everest Base Camp Trekking with extension to the Gokyo valley and ascent to Gokyo Ri (5360m), is a demanding route, due to the altitude at which it develops and the number of days of trekking. Due to the maximum height that we'll reach, 5,550 meters above sea level, it's mandatory to carry out several days of acclimatization along the trek. To end this trek, we'll enjoy a free day in the beautiful and ancient city of Kathmandu .
