High altitude glacial lakes truly beautiful to behold with the snow-capped peaks around them, seemingly abandoned glaciers, grazing grounds of the yaks and the rhododendron forests add up to make a trek to Gokyo a special one.  

The stupendous view of Dudh pokhari lake,Ngozumba glacier, and the peaks Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, Cholatse, Tawatse and Gyachung kang from the Gokyo peak is simply unforgettable.
