Trip Overview
Our Cho Oyu expedition route transverses first driving all the way to the Cho Oyu Base Camp, crossing the Nepalese Border, and continuing via Nyalam and Tingri. The way to Cho Oyu Base Camp involves a normal drive at high altitude, but rewards with powerful views of Cho Oyu (8,201m) to the north.
