The Sherpa residents of Khumbu, the great valley below Mount Everest, believe that all things - mountains, plants and animals are sacred. This trek is classic approach to Gokyo and Kalapattar the highest point on earth. Solukhumbu is justifiably famous, not only for it’s proximity to the world’s highest mountain but also for its Sherpa villages and Monasteries. The primary goal of an Everest trekking is the Everest Base Camp at an elevation of about 5,340 m but as Everest can not be seen from the base camp, we climb Kalapattar, an unassuming meter bump on the southern flank of Mt.Pumori (7,145 m).
