Gokyo Ri panorama is better than Kala Patthar — fight me

My husband and I went back and forth between EBC and Gokyo, and I'm so glad we chose Gokyo. Standing on Gokyo Ri with all four 8,000m peaks visible — Cho Oyu, Everest, Lhotse, Makalu — was extraordinary. The lakes change color throughout the day. Sherpa Kingdom Treks arranged everything perfectly, including same-day porter replacement when ours fell ill.

Response from the host

Thank you James and Sophie! Gokyo Ri is truly special. We agree it rivals any view in Nepal!
