NEPAL Trek Ways P.Ltd 1 Pitstop: Chokergyang (approx. 3,100m–3,300m) is the perfect spot to take your first solid rest. There are basic tea houses/sheds here where you can grab a hot cup of tea or a heavy breakfast (like Roti Tarkari) to fuel the rest of your climb. 2. Choker Gang to Nosyam Pati (Nasimpati) Duration: 3 hours The Trail: The incline continues through the forest line, gradually giving way to alpine meadows. You will likely pass grazing Chauris (yak-cow hybrids) along this stretch. The air begins to thin out here, so it's important to maintain a slow, steady rhythm.
