No crazy edits, no music to distract. A simple "what you see is what you get" documentation of the trek. Very good coverage of landscapes and the weather conditions to help future trekkers out. Great content and also great job team.
I have watched it more than 20 times. Me andy group mbers covered this route in 1993 and 2000. In opposite way.Nostalgia,,,,,,
Beautiful!! Thank you!!
WELL DEFINED PHOTOGRAPHY. WONDERFUL!
so beautiful!
wow. Kanchenjunga has always fascinated us. This video brought us one step closer. Thanks for sharing.
Tough trip but beautiful and you survived it, I've been to rural India and Nepal and can attest to the airport and logistic foul ups but always felt safe in Nepal, India not so much.
It's ok. I can understand, reading up all the things in the np dosen't bring a good image home
use this route is also a dream for me...beatiful route......
This video of yours is tempting me to go there again via Uttare. The trail form Uttarey to Dzongri seems to be amazing.
Awesome video
Lovely video thank you very much 😊🙏
Kangchendzongha, The Pride of Sikkim, India 🙌✊🏻🇮🇳

It's my favorite place and my love. guys..... Siliguri...sevok Rd...deorali.... Gangtok.....wow....most important KANCHANJANGHA....
Greetings from Kolkata, India. We, a group of 4 covered a little part of this trail in Feb, 2019. Your cinematography, capturing moments are amazing, fantastic.
Love your photographs, it's just soooo clear that I feel like I must go to this place..& I subscribed you &rang the BELL..
👏😂🤣🍾🙏
wow ang ganda ng view
I have enjoyed watching your video from first to last. It's a very inspiring at the first place as the trekkers are all old age but very very strong and fit to scale at such height, difficult and hard route, secondly I have liked and loved your capturing the wonderful views and being a photography passionate. Appreciated your extra miles like, waking up early in the morning fighting cold weathers, walking to higher points to get the best views etc, despite tired walking during the day and filming simultaneously... BRAVO!!! keep it up sir.
Top!!!!!
Very nice video
Wow.. great trek.. congratulations and thanks for information included in video. I will going to this trek in November ❤️❤️❤️
Planning the same can we connect ?
Kanchanjunga is a pride of Sikkim
half nepal me hai aur indian side se summit karna allow nahi hai sayad yahan koi mountain climbing scene nahi, government must allow
Me two times it's hard to trek when we see the beauty of mountain it's relax with out massage
The Nepal side of the treck is so much more beautiful.
I love trekking but I don't have capability to do that way due to my heart's health 😢
Btw glad to see there's snow covered the Himalayan Summits in the global warming condition.
Never knew they went there
All Delhi tours end up in a carpet emporium.
☺👍👍👍
Thanks for taking your time to share it with us who are interested. I personally would never go on a trek like this, too exhausting and not much to see but appreciate that there are people like yourself who like to do this kind of thing. Well done to you guys. (Actually I'm a lazy bum who don't do ANY kind of trekking!) So thanks again for sharing it with people like me.

Amazing video. No music, no voiceover.
You gave me exactly what i wanted.
Also i understand your pain walking on those boulders and rocks.
I wonder why Goecha La trek is not allowed in Winter season. with snow all over filling the gaps btw the boulders it shouldnt be hard to trek.
Walking in snow is usually more difficult. If it is soft, your feet can sink in up to your knee or higher every other step and pulling them out is very tiring and slows you down. You can fall down unseen holes and get stuck. If it is over boulders, every step you don’t know whether it is firm underneath, or your ankle will go down a gap between the rocks. If the snow is hard it can be slippery, and you need ice axe and crampons and possibly to walk roped together. It can vary from hard to soft through the day as the sun warms the snow. If it is actually snowing you might have to say in camp, needing extra days of food, the new snow might block walking out. There are other hazards like whiteout visibility, avalanches and the cold. Both trekkers and crew need to be trained to walk in winter conditions, and even then it would be very hard to predict weather conditions in the mountains over a long trek.
@@stephen.t.slater Many thanks Stephen for your reply. I will consider them while planning my next trek.
Also i am planning to solo trek Goecha La.
I have a query,
I see you stayed in tents almost at all the points.
Is that because you didnt have any teahouses/local houses over there ? Or you prefered to stay in tents ?
Aprpeciate your reply.
@@juhanpad69 I booked onto a trip organised by a trekking company and this was the package on offer. I never considered tents vs indoors. I don’t remember seeing much alternative accommodation, though there are other routes to Goecha La that you can consider where there may be more. Personally, I have a slight preference for staying indoors rather than camping, but a greater preference for remote routes away from towns.
proud of nepal .
Nepal ki ma ki chut
Rakesh Kumar mind your language .
@@tokyosayatho6757 You tell him!
Very good; thanks for sharing the experience. Looking up to higher things? Loo arrangements discretely avoided? Some viewers might want to know if there were loo tents!
There were three - little blue tents. You can see them at the start of day 10, one to the left of camp and two on the right, here: 00:30:05
Whatever,....it was pure torture to watch these people to struggle through the track. Scandalous arrangement of poor quality. These
people have been robbed for a trek they did not expect!!!!
Hi Showdown - wen you get a chance, can you please give some views/ideas to have better treks from your perspective? What exactly are you bench marking this one with? I am looking to do some trekking in the near future and your tips may help. From what I saw this was a very good and successful effort by those who participated though the weather didn't play sort at Goeche La (of course it could have been worse). Kudos Mr. Stephen Slater and gang and thanks for posting the video!!!
Which month n year ?
14:00 Start
Makalu basecamp next time you come to nepal
that hot juice must be butter tea i think
Sorry to shatter that romantic illusion, but it is usually a product called "Tang". It comes in several flavours including lemon and orange and consists of sugar, chemicals and flavouring dissolved in boiled water. It hits the mark though.
Hello
Did someone help the lost leg cow ?
Dinner I guess
What is the name of the mountain at 24:46?
Makalu looking highest. Lhotse (actually higher) to the left and Chomo Lonzo to the right. Same grouping named at 24:36 but later in the day.
Where is makalu located in china or india??
@@bishnuaryal1157 nepal
Is Everest and makalu visible from sikkim?
@@shobhitsharma8186of course it must be visible from many places of Sikkim. Everest is even visible from Kathmandu
curious of approximate cost per person?
Can't remember what I paid when I went, but it was booked with KE Adventure Travel and it is listed on their website for next year at £2225/£2875 land only/inc flights from UK.
@@stephen.t.slater thanks!
@@stephen.t.slater why you pay so much higher rates? We provide in cheap
@@bishnuaryal1157 So tell me what company is this "we" and how much you would charge for a similar itinerary with good quality hotels including in Delhi, internal flights, all road transport and airport transfers, full service camping including all equipment and putting up/taking down tents, all food, good wages to local crew with insurance for them if they are sick, providing all required permits, providing a scheduled guaranteed to run booking with a small group of other clients that you have found, and qualified guides who speak good English, are used to leading groups at high altitude and who can tell us about what we are seeing rather than asking the client "is makalu located in china or india??" Can you tell me where I can read reviews from all your previous international customers showing that you can be relied on to provide a good service?
@@bishnuaryal1157 Can you help me with your travel agency details please ?
Great capture.
Unprofessional of them to give you leaking tents. Some research needs to be done on whom to trek with.
Sikkim area is a bit unfriendly to tourists so I have heard. Never been there but plan to.
proud of nepal kanjanzanga .
kanjanjangha is in india
@@sauravghosh4930 politically it is nepal but in border so …
@@tokyosayatho6757 shared by both countries bro 👍👍
Its in Sikkim
@@sagargurung4535 politically it is in nepal but can shared by both country
Stopoed watching due to the poor little pack animal right before 18:45, It seemed to be having kinda a hard time 😞🙁
They breath heavy because of high altitude, they are fine, they just take a breather and then they keep moving. No reason to feel discouraged, no animals were hurt.
IT GOT WORSE...ONE YAK (?) WAS LIMPING WITH HER CALF , AND HER LEG WAS HELD ON WITH A BANDAGE .... BUT THEN HER LEG FELL OFF !!! I'M STILL SO SAD ABOUT IT . SHE MUST'VE BEEN IN EXCRUTIATING PAIN .... AND DID SHE JUST COLLAPSE AND STARVE TO DEATH ? AND WHAT ABOUT THE LITTLE CALF ...? IT'S HARD TO THINK ABOUT ...
@@higherperspective1756 breaks my heart seeing any animal suffering. If i seen people selling illegal animals in a foreign country im the type of person to create murder. Was that yak ok breathing the way it was? It had a huge load on its back to. I no there strong animals but ide rather try and carry as much as i can to lighten the load. But i suppose it's hard for humans to carry heavy loads at altitude.
@@oneactionman YOU SOUND LIKE MY KINDA FRIEND , DAVID !! IT HURTS ME SEEING THOSE ANIMALS CARRYING SUCH HEAVY LOADS . WHY CAN'T THEY SIMPLY USE TWICE THE AMOUNT OF ANIMALS AND CUT THEIR LOADS IN HALF , AND MAKE THE HUMANS CARRY MORE OF THEIR OWN STUFF , WHICH MIGHT MAKE THEM CONSIDER PACKING LESS TO BEGIN WITH . THIS USE OF ANIMALS TO CARRY SUCH HEAVY LOADS WOULD SOON BE SHUT DOWN IN MOST WESTERN COUNTRIES . HERE IN CANADA , FOR SURE -----THOUGH WE'RE STILL IN THE DARK AGES FOR ANIMAL CRUELTY IN THE FARM / MEAT INDUSTRIES .... BUT IT'S KEPT WELL HIDDEN.
I'M AFFRAID TO TRAVEL TO EXOTIC DESTINATIONS WORLDWIDE FOR FEAR OF WITNESSING ANIMAL CRUELTY AROUND ANY CORNER .... IT WOULD BE TOO UPSETTING. SEEING DOGS CRAMMED IN CAGES IN CHINA'S DOG EATING CULTURE ....LIVE CHICKEN'S CARRIED UPSIDE DOWN ALONG STREETS IN PARTS OF INDIA AND OTHER PLACES . THE LIST IS ENDLESS FOR WHAT ANIMALS ARE PUT THROUGH ALL OVER THE PLANET ON A DAILY BASIS. I DON'T THINK I COULD HANDLE SEEING ANY OF IT . I PRAY FOR THE DAY WHEN HUMANS ARE NO LONGER CAPABLE OF HARMING ANIMALS ---- BUT COME TO KNOW THEM AS THE DIVERSE AND EQUAL BEINGS THEY ALL ARE , AND POTENTIAL FRIENDS THEY EACH CAN BE , IF WE ALLOW THEM TO LIVE THE LIVES THE CREATOR MEANT THEM TO HAVE. SORRY THIS IS A LONG REPLY , BUT READING YOUR COMMENT MADE ME SO HAPPY .... IT'S RARE TO HEAR A VOICE OUT THERE WHO CARES FOR ANIMALS THE WAY YOU OBVIOUSLY DO ....I ALMOST NEVER GET TO STATE HOW I FEEL ABOUT THEIR TREATMENT BY HUMANS TO SOMEONE WHO REALLY GETS IT. MOST ARE DEFENSIVE , AND FEEL ATTACKED IF ONE SPEAKS ABOUT THE HARM WE DO TO OUR FELLOW CREATURES . THANK YOU FOR EXISTING , DAVID V. ;-)
😂😂
kanchangenja is in nepal not india
It is on the border of Nepal and India. The border goes through the Main, Central and South peaks with the West and Kangbachen peaks on the Nepal side.
Goecha la top mt.khanchanjunga
Yeah it's in border but most parts are in nepal
@@hellogiri856 its some part in India sikkim some parts are in Nepal. And we are not bad people mind your language. Check Google idiot 😂
@Akshay Agnihotri than india lies in nepal
Kanchanjanga of nepal not india sikkim
Yeah.
No matter where it is, just look up & say that I am a BOY...🍾😜
@@satanjibsinha128 😂what do you mean
Evrest in china not nepal
@Phoenix Phoenix nice joke laude.
Lamentável como os animais são maltratados , as pessoas estão ai por que desejam ter fama, os animais carregando às cargas, passando por labirintos absurdos 👎😔👐🇧🇷👐🇧🇷👏
It looks like an elderlyhome going on the last campingtrip. I wonder what they paid for this garbage and how many survived. This is no promotion for trekking!!!!!
Do you expect America everywhere?
SILLY COMMENT . THESE PEOPLE WERE AMAZING . LOVED EVERY MOMENT THAT WAS SHARED WITH US . THANK YOU ALL.
P.S I AGREE WITH PRATYAY R. ;-)
We dnt need to promote the Goechala trek route. Its very popular, one of the best treks in the Eastern Himalayas.
A very bad comment!Uncivilized!
painful to watch old people climbing slower then snails.My advice to them is visit flat places like Holland.
