Named after the serene glacial lake valley, Gokyo Lake Trek is a variant of Everest region trekking. Although it can be connected with the Everest Base Camp trek, Nepal Trekking Routes has designed it differently.
You get to see the aerial view of the snow-capped mountains from the Manaslu (8,163 m) region to the Solukhumbu region. The Sherpa culture and tradition including ancient monasteries, chortens, and mane walls are seen during this trek.
The diverse flora and fauna of Sagarmatha National Park add to the charm of Nepal trekking. It is one of the highest-placed conservation areas in the world. The UNESCO World Heritage List has enlisted this site under natural site.
You can see the Himalayan animals like musk deer, red panda, etc. while walking along the rugged trails. The pine, oak, and rhododendron forests of this region are the assets to promote Nepalese tourism.
The wonderful biodiversity is always calling the national and international tourists at all times of the year. If you make Gokyo Lake trek in spring, the entire national park is embellished by colorful rhododendron flowers.
