About Trip:

The Three Passes Trek of the Everest region is one of the most popular long-distance trekking journeys. The trek is one of the most adventurous escapades not only in Nepal but in the whole world. The region's diverse alpine and the trans-Himalayan landscape are beguilingly ornamented with deep river valleys, white rivers originating from the peaks and Sherpa villages where the Himalayan lifestyle is the norm for its people. All these aspects of the region are explored and admired in the length of the trek.

Starting the trek from Lukla, the Three Passes Trek has trails that wind through the gorgeous terrain of the Khumbu. Including highlights like the commercial Himalayan towns of Namche Bazaar and Tengboche, the vantage points of Kalapatthar and the Gokyo RI as well as the three high Mountain Passes of the Khumbu- the Renjo La (5360m), the Cho La (5420m) and the Kongma La (5535m), the Three Passes Trek is a beautiful journey of amazing Himalayan views at every turn. Initially, the journey follows the same path as that of the Everest Base Camp Trek but diverts toward the villages of Thame to reach the holy Gokyo Lakes of the Himalayas. It is a journey full of the best aspects of the region. Due to the High Mountain Passes, the Three Passes Trek is a rather strenuous trekking journey. It requires more physical strength to complete than the average base camp treks of the region. Moreover, the best times to do the Three Passes Trek are during the spring and the autumn seasons. The spring season lasts from March to May and the autumn season lasts from the months of September to November. It is not suitable to do during the winter months as the mountain passes tend to be blocked because of heavy snow and the Gokyo Lake tends to freeze over in the dwindling temperatures.
