Cho La Pass HIGH PASSES OF EVEREST


On this challenging trek we cross three high passes, ascend three peaks and visit Everest Base Camp – making it perhaps the ultimate trek through the Everest region. We follow the famous expedition route to Base Camp and trace old Tibetan trading routes to Thame. Along the way we stay in traditional teahouses and experience Sherpa culture.
