The path from Lukla to Chablung (2700 m) drops sharply to the Tharo Kosi, also known as Kusum Kanguru Khola (river). The path climbs to Ghat (2,590 m) and then again to Phakding after crossing the Tharo Kosi Bridge. Climb to the gompa in Phakding to get your first glimpse of the high peaks. You will now truly feel as though you have landed in the Himalayan Kingdom. Lunch, dinner, and breakfast are included in your stay at the guesthouse. Phakding O/N.

The trail from Phakding to Zamphuti follows the Dudh Koshi River. Thamserku peak may be seen well from here.
