There follows several days ascending and descending along the Singalila Ridge before crossing over to reach the main trail just past Dzongri. From here the route leads up to the Goecha La, the four thousand nine hundred metre pass, which is the closest the trail gets to Kanchenjunga. The mountain views are absolutely spectacular. There are times on the trek where four of the five highest mountains in the world are clearly visible.
