The Trekking


The trekking was a great experience. We spent 23 days on the mountain, and the hightest point we were, was something near 5650 m.


We made two trekking routes: the Gokyo area and after, Everest Base Camp. Between these two areas, we made a pass that forced us to walk for 9 hours in the same day, the Chola Pass (5500 and something meters on top).

For two weeks, on the Gokyo trekking, we walked with Neuv and Karine, two Canadian girls.



This is our third day trekking, in Benkar.
