Ever dream of ascending Mount Everest up close without need to drag yourself through tiresome long-distance treks or higher-than-average altitudes? The Pikey Peak Trek is exactly the solution for you! This amazing trek takes you to one of Everest's and surrounding peaks' best viewpoints—without the clichéd crowds!. It is a hidden jewel in the lower Everest region with breathtaking vistas, peaceful routes, and a chance to experience the unique Sherpa way of life.
As compared to the more crowded Everest Base Camp trek, Pikey Peak is less crowded, more body-friendly, and shorter. So you still get that stunning Himalayan view without having to hike for weeks or endure high-altitude sickness.
Along with this, you will also get to hike through stunning forests, rolling hills, and serene Sherpa villages, where you can experience warm hospitality, freshly prepared local food, and an insight into the Buddhist way of life. You may even catch a glimpse of some colorful prayer flags fluttering in the air or hear a distant chanting voice of monks in monasteries.
What is The Best Part?
