Everest Base Camp Trek

Some treks take you to a place. The Everest Three High Passes Trek takes you through an entire world. This is not a walk to a single destination - it is a full loop through the Khumbu region of the Nepal Himalayas, crossing three high-altitude passes, weaving through ancient Sherpa villages, and placing you face to face with some of the highest mountains on Earth. If the standard Everest Base Camp Trek feels like the opening chapter, this is the whole story.
The three passes define everything about this journey. Kongma La (5,535m) is the highest and most demanding - a steep, glacier-edged crossing above Chhukung where Lhotse, Makalu, and surrounding ice fields stretch endlessly in every direction. Cho La (5,420m) connects the Khumbu Valley to the Gokyo Valley across a dramatic glacier where every careful step feels earned. Renjo La (5,360m) is the final pass and perhaps the most visually stunning - a ridge above the turquoise Gokyo Lakes with an open horizon of Mount Everest, Cho Oyu, and the full sweep of the Khumbu Himal. Trekkers wanting the lake experience on its own can explore our Gokyo Lake Trek as a quieter alternative.
The ascent follows the beloved Khumbu trail - rising from Namche Bazaar past the sacred Thyangboche Monastery, through the wide pastures of Dingboche, into the remote valley of Chhukung, and onward to Gorak Shep and Everest Base Camp (5,364m). Standing at Kala Patthar (5,545m) as first light hits Everest's south face is a moment that never leaves you. The return then peels away in a completely different direction - back through the Gokyo Valley and out over Renjo La, two entirely different worlds on the way up and back down. For a different take on the same landscapes, the Everest Base Camp with Gokyo Lake Trek offers a wonderful variation.
This is a serious undertaking best suited for fit trekkers with some high-altitude experience. The circuit runs 18 to 21 days from Lukla with proper acclimatization built in throughout. Those needing a quicker return can choose the Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return - a scenic flight that ends the adventure in style.
Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) are the prime seasons. At Mountain Eco Treks, our local guides have walked every meter of this route and will be beside you the whole way. A Sagarmatha National Park permit is included in your package. Come ready - this trek will show you the Himalayas at their most raw and magnificent.

A short but important walk deeper into the Imja Valley at 4,730 metres. Chhukung is a small remote settlement sitting directly beneath the towering faces of Island Peak, Ama Dablam, and the Lhotse-Nuptse wall - one of the most dramatic settings on the Everest Three High Passes Trek. Arrive early, eat well, and rest - tomorrow is the biggest day yet.
The first and highest of the three Himalayan high passes, Kongma La at 5,535 metres demands an early start and a steady climb through rocky moraines and frozen terrain. At the summit, prayer flags frame panoramic views of Makalu, Baruntse, Cho Oyu, and the entire Khumbu range. Descend past glacial lakes and the solemn Lobuche memorial chortens to Lobuche village for overnight rest.
The most iconic day of the Everest Three High Passes Trek. Cross the Khumbu Glacier moraine to Gorakshep, then push on to Everest Base Camp at 5,364 metres inside Sagarmatha National Park. Standing at the foot of the world's highest mountain with the thundering Khumbu Icefall before you is a moment that stays with you for life. Return to Gorakshep for overnight rest.

Arrive at the quiet remote settlement of Dzongla for the night, ready for the second great pass tomorrow.

On the descent, the turquoise Gokyo Lakes suddenly appear below - a breathtaking reward after a demanding day of high-altitude trekking in Nepal. Overnight at Gokyo village on the shores of the sacred third lake.
Gokyo Ri at 5,357 metres is one of the greatest highlights of the Everest Three High Passes Trek. From the summit, four of the world's six highest mountains are visible at once - Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, and Cho Oyu - along with the vast Ngozumpa Glacier below. Spend the afternoon exploring the sacred 4th and 5th Gokyo Lakes, their turquoise waters set against a backdrop of permanent glacial ice.
The third and final pass of the Everest Three High Passes Trek, Renjo La at 5,360 metres, rewards you with one of the most extraordinary views in Nepal - the sacred Gokyo Lakes and Ngozumpa Glacier far below, framed by the towering mass of Cho Oyu. Descend into the remote Bhote Koshi valley and reach the peaceful settlement of Lungden for overnight rest. All three legendary passes are now complete.
A pleasant walk downstream along the Bhote Koshi River through a quiet, authentic Sherpa valley. Thame is a historically significant village on the Everest Three High Passes Trek, best known as the childhood home of Tenzing Norgay Sherpa, who first summited Everest with Sir Edmund Hillary in 1953. Visit the ancient Thame Monastery perched above the village before settling in for the night.
A short and easy walk back to the familiar energy of Namche Bazaar. With all three high passes and Everest Base Camp behind you, tonight is the time to celebrate. Enjoy a hot shower, a well-deserved meal at one of Namche's excellent restaurants, and reflect on the incredible achievement of completing the Everest Three High Passes Trek so far.
The final walking day of the Everest Three High Passes Trek is a long, satisfying descent through Monjo, Jorsale, and Phakding, crossing familiar suspension bridges one last time. Warmer air and greener forests mark the return to lower altitude. Arrive in Lukla with tired legs and incredible memories - celebrate with your guide and porters over dinner at one of Lukla's famous teahouses.
Rise early for your morning flight back to Kathmandu, marking the successful completion of the Everest Three High Passes Trek. Back in the capital, transfer to your hotel and take a moment to fully absorb this remarkable achievement - three legendary Himalayan passes above 5,000 metres, Everest Base Camp, and Kala Patthar, all completed in 18 days.

Three passes trek
1 Apr 2022
I loved the three passes trek. Great 18 days with awesome views and nice walks. And ram with his organisation and our guide bakktha did everything to make this trip unforgettable.Planning our trip was easy because email and telephone communication with ram was perfect. He told no lies and talked honestly about the costs and challenges of the trip.
The lodges were as good as possible up there at the trek.
Even when we had problems with our flights to and from lukla because of bad weather or technically problems with the aircraft ram and bakktha did hundreds of phone calls to manage that we didn't lose so much time.I would totally recommend the organisation. They are very nice, honest and speak good english.

Review of Mountain Eco Treks & Expedition
Ram is a first class English and Arabic speaking tour guide based in Kathmandu
Ram is prepared for any eventuality and conducts his tours seamlessly throughout the Nepal region
Our group enjoyed a wonderful spectacle of seeing Everest base camp and surrounding countryside
An area not to be underestimated for its beauty and dangerous weather conditions
Ram makes sure his clients are always well fed and ready for the days adventures
Mountain eco tours will be the company I choose again if I return to this majestic area
Thanks Ram for a wonderful two week experience
Date of experience: October 2018

Absolute recommendation
9 Aug 2022
Would totally recommend Ram and our tour guide Bakktha to everyone. We did the three passes trek in the Everest region and it could not have been a better experience.
Organization was super smooth with Ram, and you could feel that he really tries to make this a grwat experience for you. For example, when stuck in Lukla due to weather conditions, Ram (and our guide Bakktha) really tried everything in their hands to get us back to Kathmandu fast and spent the whole day basically on the phone. Successful, in the end, and I believe we would have been stuck for another 2-3 days if it was not for them :)
Bakktha was a very kind and helpful guide that enriched our trek with grst organization and a lot of interesting information on the region. And he loves to play cards, which was great for us :)
All in all, I would always organize it again with Ram and Bakktha
