As if the Everest Base Camp Trek was not difficult enough, here is another challenge for all trekkers. Everest Three Pass Trek leads you to the three high passes in the Everest region, each over 5000m in altitude. Therefore, These passes include Renjo La (5,340m), Chola La (5,368m) and Kongma La (5,535m), and Moreover, This demanding package is tailored mostly for avid trekkers who have previous experience.

However, these high passes are not the only attraction of this heavenly trek. Therefore, From the beautiful glaciers to the famous Kala Patthar (5,535m) and eventually the Everest Base Camp (5,364m) itself. In addition, the entire adventure brings together an arduous journey which is well supplemented by the presence of four of the highest mountains. In addition, mountains including Mt. Everest (8,848m), Mt. Makalu (8,470m), Cho Yu (8,156m), Mt.Lhotse (8,591m), as well as several others. To sum up, The view from the high passes is extraordinary and rarely trekkers will get to be surrounded by these ice giants and walk on the rocky trails.
Therefore, The three high passes will test the limit of the stamina as the trekkers cross one pass after another. Moreover, The view of Gokyo Lake is amazing and the beautiful Sherpa villages with their unique lifestyle are yet another highlight of this journey. In addition, Happy Land Trek has tailored this three-week journey so that the trekkers can enjoy the full adventure without worrying about food, accommodation, or luggage.
Moreover, As with every other trek in the Khumbu region, Everest Three Pass Trek starts from Lukla after a flight from Kathmandu. In addition, We moved to Namche Bazar (3,535m)- the gateway to the Khumbu region. Therefore, As we conquer the three high passes we will also visit the Gokyo Lake and Kala Pathar where the view of the mighty Everest is definitely worth seeing.

This was one of the best experiences of my life! If you want to challenge yourself or want a high pass rewarding experience, 100% do it. The guides that Happyland Treks provided made the trip all the better. They made me feel incredibly comfortable and safe. They were super attentive to everyone’s every need. The views are the most stunning I’ve ever experienced. You should go have a look too! Before coming here, we trained for 3 months, and it paid off, at least physically, even if the altitude was a strong challenge. I’d come here again and again, as the mountains, the views, and the group feel are unique.
One of the best experiences in my life but it’s a challenging adventure trek. Amazingly, everybody loves these stunning views and the Himalayas. Great support team guide and porter. also keeping updating everything from the company director Mr. Bimal. Thanks for a safe trip.
