Tibet Trek - Qomolangma Nature Preserve
Lao Tingri-Rombuk - 3-4 days

One of the most popular treks in Tibet due to its proximity to Everest and the great views. Bear in mindthat this is the reason to choose it - not for a remote experience. The trek essentially follows the landcruiser short cut between Ronmuk & Lao Tingri and you will see vehicles traveling up and down.

Lao Tingri - Cho Oyo Base Camp

Cho Oyo base camp (4820m) sits below the gravel morraine of Kyetrak Glacier. The early part of this trek follows the route from lao Tingri to Rombuk, before turning slightly west to cross the Pozer la (5300m). Allow time here for a day hike to just below the icefalls of Jobo Rabtsang - views of Cho Oyo, Jobo Rabtsang and Kyetrek glacier are impressive.
There are a number of treks possible in this area. Easy-Moderate - Tough
