Trip Introduction

The Pikey Peak Trek, part of the Lower Everest Trek, is an amazing 6-day short and sweet adventure that starts and ends in Kathmandu. Located at an altitude of 4065 meters above sea level, Pikey Peak is a revered holy hill along the Lower Everest trekking trail, offering 360-degree panoramic views of over 15 of Nepals most iconic snow-capped peaks. The Himalayan ranges visible from Pikey Peak include Mount Everest, Ama Dablam, Makalu, Mera Peak, Thamserku, Lhotse, Kanchenjunga, Gaurishankar, Karyalung, Numbur, Annapurna, Shishapangma, and many more.

Dhap and Patale are the starting points of the trek, where youll drive on the first day and spend the night. These villages are located about 240 km from Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal. Among these two hilly villages, the most notable is Changes Than Temple, situated at an altitude of 3067 meters. This sacred hilltop is significant to the local people, and from here, you can enjoy stunning views of the mountains, including Mount Everest, on a clear day.

On the second day of the trek, youll head to Jhapre, a small village located at 2935 meters. This charming village is rich in local culture and traditions. Before reaching Jhapre, youll have the opportunity for cultural sightseeing at the villages of Gorpiteng, Patale, and Shingaane.

Following the bulbule (small streams) and winding trails through hilly terrain, we reach the Pikey Peak Base Camp on the third day of the trek. Early in the morning, after breakfast, we hike to the famous Pikey Peak, located at an altitude of 4065 meters, to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the Himalayas. After taking in the stunning views, we descend to Jasmane Banjyang (3500 meters) and continue our trek to Thaktor and Junbesi, where we join the classic trekking route to Everest Base Camp.

On the final day of the trek, we head to Phaplu, the second airport in the Solukhumbu region. Along the way, we visit the Thuptencholing Monastery and the Junbesi Monastery before trekking towards Phaplu. From Phaplu, we take a local jeep back to Kathmandu, completing this incredible trek through the Lower Everest Region. The Pikey Peak Trek is a shorter version of the Mountain & Monasteries Trek, offering stunning views and a cultural experience in the heart of the Everest region.
