Everest Base Camp Trek

Everest Base Camp Trek

Imagine yourself standing upon a beautiful secluded valley admiring the turquoise coloured azure lakes embedded in between the wild mountains with the pinnacles of towering mountains bestowing just before your eyes! Gold Escapes Trek caters your imagination with a well-designed package named Everest Gokyo Lake Trek. Everest Gokyo Lake Trek avoids the regular route taken by most of the trekkers and takes you along a less travelled trail in Everest region to cherish the beauty that lies in the glacier lakes of Gokyo.
