Everest 3 Passes Trek "Everest High Places" with www.highplaces.co.uk.

The best way to see the area, great improvement over standard basecamp trek.

• A magnificent circuit of three high passes in the Everest region
• Three high points: Chukkung Ri, Kala Pattar and Gokyo Ri
• Visit Everest Base Camp
• Good acclimatisation schedule
• Lodge accommodation with friendly Sherpa hosts

Best to go in November and early December to keep away from crowds and enjoy the best views.  Although it can be cold. -10 degrees C is common.
