Peiku Tso Travelogue: At the foot of Shishapangma Peak, waiting for a high-altitude lake to slowly change color

other / , , , , , ,

Peiku Tso is a good stop along the route from Mount Everest, Gyirong, or the southern route of Ali. At an altitude of approximately 4580 meters, the lake is expansive, and on a clear day, you can see Shishapangma Peak, grasslands, the lakeshore, and alpine wildlife all in one view. If time is limited, you can visit the south shore to see the lake; if you want to capture snow-capped mountains in the same frame, save your time for the north shore and the evening light.
