Lawudo Gompa is the meditation spot and retreat cave of Lama Zopa (Kopan Monastery, Kathmandu), a leading figure of Tibetan / Himalayan Buddism. Located far from any of the tourist hustle and bustle of the Mt Everest region, the area provides a pristine atmosphere with views of the surrounding mountains. Lawudo is looked after by the sister of Lama Zopa and few devotees who reside there at a small monastery and huts built to accommodate visitors. This trek combined with Namchebazaar, Everest Panorama is designed to present true insight of the Himalayan cultural heritage that's rare in commercial trekking activities.

A genuinely life altering, life affirming expedition to the beautiful remote and breathtaking Lawudo Gompa. The memory remains still fresh and open as the sky surrounding this magnificent place. There is a mystery to this place that stays with you long after your decent.
Amber and his team were warm and friendly. Always two steps ahead of your needs and dependable in every way. They are as much part of the memory as the friends made in the group.
A manageable trek and a forever memory. Thank you to everyone.

I did the 9 day guided trek in Everest region with three nights at Lawudo Gompa. It was an amazing experience and Amber and his team took care of everything from planning, itinerary, questions, etc.
I knew nothing about Buddhism or mediation and the experience was still worthwhile. I learned a lot about myself through talking to the few other travelers and nuns on retreat there in discussions on meditation and buddhism.
The Gompa is well off the beaten trek from Everest region in a beautiful location high in the mountains with great views. Accommodations are basic but comfortable. Food is amazing.
I highly recommend this tour with Amber and his team for a potentially life changing experience!

It is the 2nd time that I participated in a retreat trekking led by Three Jewels Adventures: the 1st in 2018 and just returned few weeks ago from a 2nd one. The level of attention we received from Amber, our expert guide and his wonderful supporting team was awesome. Amber always picked yummy restaurants while on the trek and was able to accommodate any requests, may it be for upgrades or suggestions for shopping or visits. All done with patience and genuine caring. A totally 5 stars experience.
