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.

The Mundum Trail in eastern Nepal suits culture and slow travel trekkers wanting 8 to 12 days of moderate ridge walking through Khotang and Bhojpur districts, topped out at 4,200 m on Salpa Bhanjyang.

Anti-clockwise is the standard and safer Three Passes Trek direction. Trekkers reach 5,000 metres only on day 8 or 9, with better acclimatization and weather timing. Clockwise hits the Kongma La at 5,535 metres early and is riskier.
