Gokyo Ren-jola Pass Trek

The Everest or the Khumbu region is justifiably the most famous of all the trekking and mountain regions. Populated by the Sherpas, the attraction of this area are the majestic mountains, the high mountain villages, charming monasteries and the congenial people. This area includes the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest (8,848 m.) and many other peaks of altitudes of 8000m. or more, such as Lhotse, Cho Oyo and Makalu. Trekking to Renjola Pass is a very popular visit among tourists. A little off the main trekking trail, Thamo and Thame offer visits to untouched Sherpa culture where people have maintained the traditional way of life. You can experience the local culture through home stay accommodations. Cultural groups perform shows for tourists on request.

In addition, you can explore the jungle near the settlement sheltering endangered wildlife species, like musk deer and pheasants. The mainstay of the local economy here is tourism.
