Phortse is a village located at 3840m in Khumbu, Nepal.
It is off the main trekking circuit and therefore more resembles an authentic Sherpa village.[1] There is a high trail connection to Pangpoche offering splendid views across the valley, which can be used instead of the standard Tengboche route.
