The sunrise from Gokyo Ri at 5,357m was the most incredible thing I have ever witnessed. Everest at 8,849m glowing pink and orange while the lakes below reflected the morning light. Our guide cheered when we reached the top and that made us all cheer too. Himalaya Hub is a professional trekking company and their early morning summit timing was perfect. The Gokyo Valley Trek Nepal is the best viewpoint of Everest in my opinion. Knowledgeable guides and porters all the way.
Dudh Pokhari the third and largest Gokyo Lake at 4,750m was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. The turquoise water with Cho Oyu towering behind it looked like a painting. Our guide sat with us on the shore for a long time and nobody said a word. It was that powerful. Himalaya Hub is one of the best trekking agencies in Nepal and their route through all six lakes was perfectly timed. The Gokyo Lake Trek is a sacred and stunning journey. Great service from start to finish.
I chose the Gokyo Valley Trek because I wanted to see Everest without the crowds. Best decision ever. We met maybe ten other trekkers the whole route. Our guide loved the quiet as much as we did. Himalaya Hub is a great local trekking operator. Best alternative Everest trek Nepal. Safe and well organized.

Amazing Ngozumpa Glacier Trekking Adventure
Walking along the Ngozumpa Glacier the largest glacier in Nepal was one of the most dramatic things I have ever experienced. The ice and rock and silence was overwhelming. Our guide explained how the glacier is moving and changing and it made the whole landscape feel alive. He was so knowledgeable about geology. Himalaya Hub is a trusted trekking agency in Nepal and their route along the glacier moraine was perfectly safe. The Gokyo Valley Trekking experience gave me views I never thought possible. One of the best trekking agencies in Nepal.
The six turquoise Gokyo Lakes were the most beautiful water I have ever seen. The color changed from blue to green to silver depending on the light. Our guide was so excited showing us each lake. Himalaya Hub is the best trekking company in Nepal. Life changing trek in the Everest region.
