Overview

Early morning drive from Kathmandu to Solu Salleri takes around 10 to 11 hours long rough road passing through the various villages gives you overviews of high Himalayan mountain village culture.

The journey starts to the directions of Ringmu villages (2720m) and joins the old Jiri-Everest trek route and finally arrive in Taksindu (2960m). The next day, Trek passes through Nunthala village and descends to the Dudhkoshi River and crossing a suspension bridge we climb up to the Jubhing village and the journey end at Kharikhola.

The third day of trek follows the Dudhkoshi valley towards the Surke, Phakding and Namche bazzar. A day acclimatization is must so a day excursion around Khumjung Village is worth to understand Sherpa culture.
After two days of upward trekking we finally reach the famous lake of Gokyo. The next day early morning climb to the Gokyo Ri (Gokyo Peak) provides us a stunning view of various mountains views. The views from here are tremendous, a 360 degree panorama of snow-capped peaks including Everest (8,848 m) ranked 1st, Lhotse (8,516) m, ranked 4th, Nuptse (7,861 m), Makalu 8,463 m, ranked 5th and Cho Oyu (8,201 m) ranked 6th in the world.

From Gokyo, we retrace the main trail towards Phortse Tenga, Monjo, Surke, kharikhola, Taksindu and finally reach Solu-Salleri. Early morning Bus/Jeep takes back us to Kathmandu and trek concludes.
