Wow, you guys know how to make awesome Videos. The best one I‘ve seen from Ngozumpa Tse, an awesome view of Everest and of course Cho Oyu, not many know about it 😉
Absolutely impressive!! I did this in 2019 but I take my hat off to you guys for doing the two Tse's. I was already naggered at Chhukkung Ri. Watched th efull esries in one go and it brought back lot's of great memories! (Nice video work as well!!). Cheers!
Thanks! Yes, a sleeping bag was definitely required. The nights got cold, usually around the freezing point. I brought -10C sleeping bag, that did reasonably well, but had a few particularly cold nights that were uncomfortable.
Day 0 Arrive in Kathmandu Day 1 Bus to Ramechapp @ 2am; Fly to Lukla @ 9am, end at Monjo Day 2 Monjo to Namche Bazaar Day 3 Acclimization Day - Hillary Viewpoint / Khunde Peak Day 4 Namche Bazaar to Phortse Day 5 Phortse to Pangboche Day 6 Pangboche to Dingboche - (very short day, was feeling sick) Day 7 Dingboche to Chukhung Day 8 Acclimization Day - Chukhung Ri & Chukhung Tse Day 9 Rest Day in Chukhung Day 10 Chukhung to Lobuche (Kongma La Pass) Day 11 Lobuche to EBC and back to Gorak Shep Day 12 Kala Patthar and then to Lobuche Day 13 Lobuche to Dzongla Day 14 Dzongla to Gokyo (Cho La Pass) Day 15 Ngozumpa Tse Day 16 Rest day in Gokyo Day 17 Goyko to Lungden (Renjo Pass) Day 18 Lungden to Namche Bazaar Day 19 Namche Bazaar to Lukla Day 20 Fly out to Ramechapp, bus to Kathmandu Be sure to add in a few flexible days before/after your flight to Lukla to account for a couple of sick-days during the hike, or a delayed flight! We had a originally booked our return flight from Lukla for day 21, and were easily able to get it bumped up to day 19.
@@kl-ke9ec Seems like you are planning a clockwise loop? The would cut out Everest Base Camp from your trip if you depart directly from Dzongla. If you are doing counterclockwise, I'd recommend going 1 step further and departing directly from Gokyo instead of Dzongla. Cho La Pass and the Gokyo Lakes were spectacular, and I highly recommend seeing them! Plus this would keep the hike a loop, so you don't hike out the same Dingboche/Pangeboche valley you ascended in
@@HTTravels yes I was going to do clockwise because there number of threads emotioned it would have better view of the lakes, however I'm taking your advice to do counterclockwise instead, do you think by not going to EBC it would be More comfortable to make a 14 days trip?
@@kl-ke9ec It is a nice view of the lakes over Gokyo from Renjo Pass, but I think you could cut that and do Gokyo Ri instead. The counterclockwise loop has a more gradual ascent up the Dingboche/Pangeboche side, which is better for acclimatization too. That Dingboche side was was spectacular, I would prefer spending time in that valley rather than the Thame valley (which I found quite barren and boring compared to the rest of the trail).
Perfectly captured.. Well done guys !!!

Thanks very much, do you see a possibility to cut the trek a bit short by going from Dzonglha to Dingboche and back to Bamche Bazaar.
