Renjo La, Cho La, and Kongma La confuse trekkers because all three sit at 5,360 to 5,535 m in the Khumbu region and all three feature on the Three Passes Trek. They differ in route direction, scenery, and difficulty. Renjo La at 5,360 m connects Gokyo to the Bhote Kosi valley and frames Everest over the turquoise Gokyo lakes. Cho La at 5,420 m connects Gokyo to the EBC trail and crosses a glacier. Kongma La at 5,535 m connects Chhukung to Lobuche and is the highest and least crowded.
