Overview

The Pikey Peak Trek is one of the most unique and secluded off-the-beaten-paths treks in the Solu sub-region of the Solukhumbu district in Nepal. It is a perfect experience for trekkers looking for an alternate route in the Everest region with little to no crowd. The fascinating remote routes to Pikey Peak are filled with relatively undisturbed and pristine natural mountainous environments. This alternate route through the Everest region has only recently been opened for trekking and, as such, generally gets far fewer trekking crowds than other destinations in the same region.

The Pikey Peak Trek is a relatively less preferred option among travelers because of its obscurity. The trekking trails offer some of the most outstanding views of the mountains in eastern and central Nepal of the Mahalangur Himalayan ranges. Mesmerizing sights of Mountains like Everest, Kanchenjunga, Dhaulagiri, Makalu, the Gauri Shanker, Mount Annapurna, Mount Lhotse, Mount Thamserku, the Mera Peak, and many more can be seen along the trekking trail. The prominent presence of Sherpa culture also makes the trekking journey quite fascinating in a cultural and traditional sense. The beautiful sceneries of the Himalayas along the route are spectacular, and the snowy peaks form a stunning backdrop against the terrain. It is a perfectly harmonious trekking package that pertains mainly to travelers who want to experience an alternative trekking route to the usual regular and popular trekking routes in the Everest region.

With an amazing Kathmandu City Tour around World Heritage Sites like the Bouddhanath Stupa, Swayambhunath Temple, Kathmandu Durbar Square, and Pashupatinath Temple. The city’s old heritages brilliantly reflect the mastery of Nepali art and architecture and embody the reminiscent medieval feeling in their display of intricate carvings, decorations, and beauty. Fly to the village of Phaplu and trek along pristine and serene trekking trails through settlements and villages at the foothills of the Himalayas. Reach the Pikey Peak Base Camp and endeavor the vast snowy openness of the terrain, a literal alpinist heaven. The pine and cedar woodlands at Junbesi along the Pikey Peak Trek also add a more mystical and forestry nuance to the trekking journey. The most aesthetically pleasing scenario is the tranquil environment of the lush forests with paths that serpentine through verdant alpine vegetation. The Pikey Peak Trek is an ideal trekking journey that embodies this phenomenon to the tee and presents an experience that is both culturally rich and naturally diverse.

Experience the sunrise and sunset views from the top of Pikey Hill. The sight of the rising and setting sun amidst the Kanchenjunga and Dhaulagiri mountain ranges is stunning. Observe the many stupas and Gompas that line the trekking trail and revel in the serenity of the colorful prayer flags that decorate the chortens along the way. Florescent beauties of magnolias, wild orchids, and rhododendron blossoms mark the trail in the spring, and the burning ember colors of autumn enhance the region’s pulchritude during the Fall. The Pikey Peak Trek is genuinely a beautiful trekking journey, and the alluring charm of the experience is sure to be with travelers for their whole life. So, join us in this incredible adventure in the secluded locations of the Everest region that presents a drastically unique trekking experience unlike anything else you’ve ever experienced with Escape Himalaya!
