Pikey Peak Trek - 11 days
A hidden gem in the Lower Khumbu region, Pikey Peak, located at an elevation of 4,070 meters, is a great option for those who cannot or do not want to make it to higher elevations but want to enjoy the beauty of the Himalayas up close.
This eleven-day, private, guided tour starts with a drive to Bamti Bhandar, a village in Nepal's eastern Ramechhap district, on the second day. Hike up to Golla, a mountain village, via Namkheli. See its beautiful monasteries and continue further to Pikey Peak Base Camp, located 3,600 m above sea level.
Muster your strength and head for the peak the next day. Although barely 4,000 metres above sea level, the views of the mountains from the peak is surreal. See some of the highest mountains in the world, including Dhaulagiri, Everest, Makalu, Kanchenjunga, Ama Dablam, Lhotse, Nuptse, Numbur, Gaurisankhar and Langtang.
Take in the views before heading down. The journey back involves traveling via Junbesi and Phaplu. En route, you will visit Thupten Chholing Monastery, a Tibetan Buddhist monastery with resident monks and nuns. You have a free day in Kathmandu before it is time to head home.
