      As the first-day trek is an easy walk that leads eastwards, the path from here is less frequented than the other main trails from Lukla. The walk follows through a number of hamlets and wood yards until we reach a thick forest of silver fir, birch, pines, and rhododendron trees and bushes on the hillside below Nau Lekh also known as Kalo Himal Ridge, on this portion follow the Sherpa or the group as there are many paths leading away from the main trail.

This small pass is called the Zatrwa Og, from here the path traverses across a boulder slope, rounds a corner, and climbs once again to the Zatrwa-La at 4,600 m. In bad weather finding the path of our route can be quite misleading, so care should be taken but with fine weather, the views across the Dudh Kosi towards Karyolung and the Lumding Himal are very impressive, as well as the scenery across the rolling foothills of the Hinku Valley.
