High Himalayan Pass Adventures
Cho La, Renjo La, Thorong La and the remote west — high crossings designed with private support, not as a suffer-fest.
Overviews
A Himalayan pass is a threshold. One valley’s language, lodges and light give way to another. We build pass itineraries for travellers who want that drama without chaos: acclimatisation that is real, a climbing Sherpa on ice days, and a lodge or camp that feels like a reward, not a compromise.
Everest high passes
Cho La links Gokyo to the Base Camp trail. Renjo La looks back on the lakes from a quieter saddle. Combined, they are the Three Passes — our most complete Khumbu circuit when done with luxury lodges and a private crew.
Thorong La & the Annapurnas
Thorong La at 5,416 m remains the great Annapurna crossing. We approach through Manang with extra nights, cross at a sane hour, and descend to Muktinath for a proper celebration dinner — then jeep or flight toward Pokhara rather than a grinding extra week unless you want it.
More challenging crossings
Larkya La on Manaslu, the west passes of Dolpo, and winter windows are for guests who have already walked high. These trips are small, privately staffed, and honest about weather holds.
