| The
great Himalayas of Nepal are well known as one of the best destinations
in the world for enjoying the real beauty of the nature. Trekking along
the trails into the interior parts of the country will lead you to
ancient foot trails that you will always remember for the scenic
river-banks, terraced fields, forested ranges and mountain villages. Trekkers
may walk along the rough but beautiful trails in the lap of green and
friendly looking hills. You will be impressed by the rhododendron
filled green dark and deep forests with different seasonal flowers
blossoming, domestic and forest animals, varieties of birds,
monasteries, temples, mountain landscapes and the warm greetings from
smiling local people. |

| Gokyo
- Kalapathar Trek (22 days) |
After flying from Kathmandu to Lukla, we'll begin trekking
to the Sherpa capital Namche Bazaar and on to the turquoise glacial
waters of Gokyo Lakes, sacred to Tibetan Buddhist living in this area.
Rising for an early start, we'll trek to the summit of Gokyo Ri for
some of the best mountain views in all of Nepal. We'll travel across
the Ngozumpa Glacier before crossing Cho La Pass to Dzongla.
From
here, we'll make our way to Lobuche along the lateral moraine of the
Khumbu Glacier and on to Gorakshep at the base of the Kalapathar. You
can hike to the top for sunset views or make an early morning trek to
its summit for a panoramic view the high Himalaya, including the trek
to Everest Base Camp at the foot of the imposing Khumbu icefall which
is 3 hours from Gorakshep.
