On a clear day, even the Annapurna range can be seen rising up behind. You pass a few huts in the high pasture of Laurebinayak, cross a small ridge and have your first views of the holy lake of Gosainkunda.
There are about a dozen lakes in the Gosainkunda Basin – the three most important ones are Saraswatikunda, Bhairabkunda and Gosainkunda. According to legend, Gosainkunda was created by Lord Shiva when he pierced a glacier with his trident to obtain water to quench his thirst after swallowing poison that threatened to destroy the world.

"Reaching Everest Base Camp was a dream come true. The journey through Sherpa villages, suspension bridges, and breathtaking high-altitude landscapes left me speechless. Every day brought a new challenge, but also unmatched beauty—from the colorful prayer flags in Namche Bazaar to the majestic sight of Everest at sunrise from Kala Patthar. The experience was emotional, empowering, and incredibly rewarding. I’ll carry the spirit of the Himalayas with me forever."
