The Trek is really amazing. It is nice because it's not as busy as the Everest base camp trek and the views are equally good.
The towns on the way are beautiful - the lodges are nice. I really liked the trek.
On my trek I did hit a major snow storm and lost some of the views, but still it was a really nice trek.
