Everest High Passes Short Trek is one of the most popular and classic treks filled with adventurous challenges. In this trek to Everest Base Camp the adventure is doubled with another adventure of three high passes – Kongma La, Cho La, and Renjo La are inspiring.
The experience you will have in this trek will not be like others available in the Khumbu region. The high passes trek is shortened to 15 days that include the passes of Kongma La, Cho La, and Renjo La.
At that point, conquer the Kongma La (5535m), on the way to Lobuche and Everest Base Camp. Come back to Lobuche and take the long course up the Cho La (5368m) and the downhill path to Thaknak. Cross the Ngozumpa Glacier and set out toward Gokyo: and a rest day to climb Gokyo Ri for a great scene of Nepal’s longest glacier of Cho Oyo and the Everest range.
The western area incorporates the lofty rising to the Renjo La(5360m), somewhere in the range of four hours over the lake for spectacular views of the valley and glacier underneath and various high edges delegated by the Everest Group including the northwest face of Everest.
The plunge to Marulung confronts new emotional scenes. Underneath this town, the trail joins an old Tibetan salt exchange course and proceeds to Thame and after that back to Namche Bazaar; and on to Lukla for your flight back to Kathmandu.

Some itineraries include an extra day in the trek as a buffer in case of delays, But some itinerary no includes extra days.

Extra days should always be added at the conclusion of the journey rather than the beginning.
