Cho-you Expedition is the name Mount Cho-yu is called 'Goddess of Turquoise'. As goddess is 'chomo' in Tibetan language and turquoise is 'yu'. Hence, 'Chomo Yu' has changed into Cho Oyu in course of changing civilization generation after generation. It is also reported that Cho Oyu is also called 'Mighty Head' meaning 'god's head' It stands at high above the Tibetan plains on the boarder of Nepal with its mighty height 8,201 m above the sea level. Mount Cho-Oyu, the world's sixth highest mountain was first to step onto the snow-dome summit were the Australians - S. Moechler, H. Tichy and P. Dawa Lama from Nepal in 1954.
Mt. Cho Oyu 8,201m is the most popular 8000 meter peak for climbing in Nepal & Tibet. Cho Oyu expedition would be the best choice for the mountaineers who want to stand on the summit of 8,000 meter peak due to its straight forward climbing with minimal objective danger and less technically demanding. These days, there are more than four different routes on Cho Oyu with the Tibetan north side offering several worthy possibilities. Climbing on Cho Oyu has the higher rate of success than any other 8000 meter peaks in Nepal & Tibet. The Base Camp is situated at Rongbuk glacier at 5,180m height. The climbing starts from Camp 1 which is placed at an elevation of 7000 m.

We will take maximum safety gears for every expeditions to be success so let’s make bigger group for the adapt the Trip, if even you go in a small group or solo climber also possible but the cost will be higher than bigger group, while your success chance is more than 90% than bigger group so sometimes, you also think about it and don’t look only for money to save (Better to think safe the life in the mountains is also most important) cheapest organization can’t fulfill your dream come true because Expedition will be always high risk so we never know the weather prediction, we have to careful about weather forecast.

Autumn (September - November) and spring (March - May) is the best season for trekking and mountaineering in Nepal. Weather is mostly clear and temperature is moderate in these seasons which offer beautiful views without any obstruction. Spring grants you beautiful flowers, plants and rare animals. Walking is favorable during these seasons. Summer (June - August) and winter (December - February). Though summer has heavy monsoon rainfall, it is very much clearer to trek around Upper Mustang Trek , Upper Dolpo Trek and Nar Phu Valley Trek since they are rain shadow areas. Everest Base Camp Trek , Langtang Valley Trek , Annapurna Base Camp Trek, as well as Pikey Peak Trek are always better to trek in winter season.
Trekking can be challenging and exhausting. So you might need some fitness training and experience for some tough trial. Nepal Trekking in Everest Base Camp does not require past experience or extreme fitness even though we have more challenging routes in different region compared to that of Everest. Trekking in Himalayas always takes us to challenging altitudes and rocky routes. You could ask for proper rest time and acclimatization to sustain your strength. Mountains can never be achieved in a day. We always provide the detail in our itinerary. However certain training like running, skipping and other workouts will definitely be beneficial in such challenging routes.
Altitude sickness is a major risk when trekking. You might experience it on any trails above 2,500 m however; good health, proper care and drinking plenty of water will definitely help you to prevent from altitude sickness. Every trekkers needs to be familiar with the heights and altitude so, for this we have life saving appropriate acclimatization days during the trek, We also provide certain medical support for your relief and emergency rescue through helicopter whenever the situation gets worse.
Our only goal in the Himalayas is to leave the memories and foot prints; Himalayan Magic Treks is concerned on environment pollution issue and global warming. We are always serious and genuine about our garbage during the trek especially during camping. We collect the rubbish and dump it to the proper place to protect our environment and also appeal our clients to do the same. We partake in every program conducted in KEEP (Kathmandu Environmental Education Project) and other environmental conservation programs. We want to promote Safe environment act and stand against pollution & global warming.
Sometimes trekking in the Himalayan region passes through unexpected complication like natural calamity, health challenges and many other problems that might result to the changes of the itinerary so, we kindly request you to cooperate with your guide and the team in such situation.
Profit oriented is not only our priority! We have been helping some of ours every villager from different corners of Nepal to sustain their social life and help them with education and required materials. We are always looking forward for interested candidates in this field to give helping hand to support and inspire them for their better beginning and good future.
