Until 2005 this valley was off-limits to trekkers because it was the main access route to the pass linking Nepal and Tibet. Over the decade, many Tibetan traders have traveled this route, bringing a variety of Chinese goods on the backs of their yaks to sell in Namche Bazaar. The trail upward to the Marulung is about 5 to 6 hours walk from Thame. We are staying overnight at Marulung Village in the lap of Mother Nature.
Today is a big day crossing the Renjo La (5,360m) about 7 to 8 hours ascending. You leave your tea house following an early breakfast with some packed lunch, energy bars, and enough drinking water and climb into a wide curie making for the edge line ahead of you.

The best time to go on Gokyo Renjo La Pass Trek is from March to May and September to November. These are the peak season to go on trekking in the Khumbu region; therefore the trial will also be crowded. However, not everyone goes on Everest Renjo La Pass Trek because of its difficulty. The views will be clear, the climate will be pleasant, and the weather mostly remains stable in autumn and spring in Nepal.
Often who are planning to Renjo La Pass Trek, commonly question what difficulty levels of Ranjo La Pass. Renjo La Pass Trek is alternative choice for trekkers, who have already done Everest Base Camp Trek except for 3 Passes Trek. If you have already crossed the Kongma La pass and Chola Pass, you should not feel such a challenge for Renjola Pass due to the less vertical trail up to the top and wider paved steps trail descend to the Marlung after the pass. It does not mean that the Ranjo La pass isn’t hard; however, compared to the length of the Kongma La traverses or crossing the glacier on Cho La, this pass doesn’t physically challenge the hikers.
Even, while hiking up Gokyo Ri, you feel this is the most challenging while ascending vertical trail but you won’t feel it while trekking to such a strenuous level trek in Ranjo La Pass. Some trekkers come from the Thame to cross the Ranjola Pass and for the Everest, Three Passes Trek, but according to our experience since 2001 and our Guest feedback, we at Nepal Mother House advise you to cross from the Gokyo side to do the circuit via Ranjola Pass. You always need to respect Nature; means walking steadily and slowly taking enough rest from the past.
