The three passes trek is becoming popular nowadays,it is made for adventure seekers as it takes you over the famous three passes of the Everest Region, the Renjo La pass, the Cho La pass and the Kongma La pass. The mountain views are spectacular, a trek that without doubt visits the grandest mountain scenery in the world. The highlights of the trek include the Sherpa village of Khumjung, the clear and blue Gokyo Lake and of course the breathtaking panoramic scenery from all the passes and time for a visit to Everest Base Camp. Unlike many other treks in the Everest Region the trek makes a loop so there is no tracing back on yourself. Another advantage is despite having to cross three passes you do not require any technical climbing ability. If you have a good level of fitness and perhaps previous trekking experience this is a great way to spend quality time.
