Overview of Everest High Passes Short Trek – 15 days
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.

It felt like the real nepal Honestly, i didn’t know much about the tsum valley before starting this trek, and that made the experience even better. the trail felt peaceful, the villages were beautiful, and every day had something different to see. i really enjoyed meeting local nepali people because everyone was so friendly and welcoming. our guide also made a big difference he knew the trail well, helped whenever we were tired, and shared interesting things about local life and culture. it felt more like experiencing real nepal than simply completing a trek. i would happily do this route again.![]()

Amazing guide and very communicative office I just finished the Annapurna circuit trek with ambition himalaya. Very good experience. My guide, Bharat, was very professional, and yet also funny and an amazing musician! During the trek came a storm that interrupted the trek, and we had to be rescued by helicopter. Both my guide and Shishir (the agency manager), helped a lot, and as soon as we got connection we called the office and they made great efforts to help with the rescue. Shishir is very communicative, and very willing to help. The hotels I were booked before and after the trek were fine, but there many cheap hotels in these areas (the thamel in kathmandu and lakeside in pokharar) so you could also book on your own for more flexibility. Overall It was a very good experience, and the guide took care of everything durring the trek, leaving me mostly with very little to worrie about.![]()

Manaslu circuit trek with Tsum valley, park Chitwan and sightseeing Kathmandu This was my first trip of this kind. Communication via WhatsApp was fantastic; Shishir answers every question almost immediately :). He can organize and combine various excursions into one—you just have to say what you want. On a day off, he’ll show you what’s worth seeing on a map or arrange a guide and transport. In the event of illness or an accident (which I wouldn't wish on anyone), he’ll take you to a doctor and help with translation. The trek was organized to perfection. I highly recommend the jeep option for a small extra fee—it offers total comfort. Our guide, Ghaman, was very friendly; he looked after us, checked on how we were feeling, shared stories, and adjusted the daily distance to our capabilities. He chose the best spots for overnight stays, offering beautiful views. The guys doing the "heavy lifting"—despite their unassuming appearance—are truly tough as nails 👏💪. Always funny and polite; you can always count on a helping hand :). They adapt to your needs: if you want company, they’ll chat; if you want to be alone, they’ll discreetly step back, yet they always keep a watchful eye on your safety. Tsum offers a chance to discover a different world, with amazing, warm, and open people. The Manaslu Circuit offers a more "modern" feel. Incredible views (though, unfortunately, weather-dependent ;)). It presents altitude-related challenges, but it’s totally doable with a great team. Unforgettable high-altitude moments :). Chitwan offers a completely different atmosphere; the safari lets you see animals up close. Unforgettable moments include walking across the town bridge with a crocodile on the riverbank below :). Don't worry—it's safe. You always choose your meals from the menu yourself. The staff is always very friendly. Nepal is a country of very polite people :). A huge thank you for helping me make my dreams come true—it wouldn't have been possible without you ♥️. My best all-inclusive vacation ever—you took care of everything, and I just had a great time 😊.![]()

The mountains felt much closer than i expected I still remember the morning we started walking toward abc. the trail was a mix of stone steps, forest, little villages, and plenty of uphill walking, so it was not always easy. my legs were pretty tired by the end of some days, but the views kept making me want to continue. i enjoyed the simple teahouses and talking with other trekkers along the way. reaching ABC early in the morning, with the mountains all around us, was the moment i had been waiting for. it felt peaceful, exciting, and completely worth the effort.![]()

Tsum Valley and Manaslu Circuit Trek. Hello! This was my first trek and I couldn't imagine it better. We've got the best team ever ( guide Ghaman and porters Gagan and Man Bahadur ). They were always caring about us, if there was anything you could hit you had heard "mind your head" or "careful careful". They even made a way from rocks when it was hard to cross the river. We were playing card games together (they taught us their game and we taught ours.) Very funny time spent. Man Bahadur and Gagan also had been carrying fruits for us for everyday FOR ALL TREK. They are really strong! Moreover in this beautiful place Tsum Valley with amazing people in guesthouses I could go to the kitchen and prepare Chapatti ( I liked this food and was curious how to make it) and it was possible because our guide arranged it ;) From wonderful Tsum Valley we went straight to Manaslu Circuit Trek. Here was harder but also awesome! Team was always supportive, when we felt bad, they were stopping for us to give us a time we needed. We achieved Base Camp and Larkya La Pass thanks to them. All trip was great planned for what we are thankful for managing director Shishir. After long and hard day there was shorter so we weren't too tired. Although he wasn't with us in mountains, he was asking if everything is fine. I am honestly very satisfied, proud and above all VERY glad. Perfect adventure with perfect people! Thank you so so much!! I can truly recommend. ✯ᴗ✯![]()

Manaslu circuit trek with Tsum Valley, Chitwan and sightseeing Khatmandu. The trek was demanding and long, but every day was very well planned, so we were not that exhausted and could appreciate the journey. The whole trek lasted 18 days, but after that we also spent 2 days in Chitwan. Our guide for the trek was named Ghaman and we had two porters: Man Bahadur and Gagan. All three where wonderful and very attentive, making sure we get the best available rooms, are eating well and get to see every wild animal they could have spotted. They were always ready to help with more difficult parts of the trek like crossing the river. The views and their company rewarded all the hardships. Our travel agency manager was also very helpful. He helped us with applying for all the necessary permits, made sure we had a proper guides and transportation to all of our destinations. He was also ready to assist us in case of a medical emergency. Journey was 10/10 and thank you Shisir for an unforgettable stay in Nepal.![]()

Our abc trek was worth every step We were still talking about the abc trek on the flight home. my partner and i loved the mix of forest trails, villages, stone steps, and mountain views. Some days were tiring, but our guide was patient, helpful, and always checked that we were comfortable. everything was arranged smoothly, including accommodation, meals, and transport. reaching base camp together was the highlight, and we both came back happy with the experience.![]()

A Memorable annapurna base camp trek One thing i will remember from annapurna base camp is how quickly the scenery changes during the trek. we walked through small villages, forests, and plenty of stone steps, with the mountains getting closer each day. some afternoons were tiring and the weather changed quickly, but our guide handled everything calmly. he was helpful with our pace, meals, and small things we needed along the way. the early morning view from base camp was absolutely worth the effort. it was a simple, genuine, and memorable trekking experience.![]()

Never thought my first trek would Be ebc I never thought my first trek would turn out this good. everest base camp was challenging for me, especially on the longer walking days, but having the ambition himalaya team made a big difference. the guides were friendly, patient and always around when i needed help. shishir was also very nice and personally looked after things. somehow everything went smoothly, and finishing ebc is a memory i will keep for a long time. i’d happily trek with them again.![]()

45 Days in nepal, and this became my favorite memory After 45 days of traveling around nepal, this trek was easily one of my favorite experiences. the annapurna views were incredible, but honestly, it was the people and the little moments along the way that i will remember most. everyone we met was so warm and welcoming. i booked with ambition himalaya and everything felt easy and relaxed from the start. our guide was friendly, helpful, and never made us feel rushed. reaching annapurna base camp after days of walking was an unforgettable moment. i was exhausted, but standing there surrounded by those mountains made every step worth it.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
