Introduction / Overview
The Pikey Peak Trek is a hidden gem in the lower Solu Khumbu region—an easy to moderate adventure that rewards trekkers with some of the best panoramic views of Mount Everest (8,848 m / 29,029 ft) and the surrounding Himalayas. Standing tall at 4,065 m / 13,336 ft, Pikey Peak offers sunrise vistas stretching from Kanchenjunga in the east to Annapurna in the west. Starting with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Dhap, this 9night, 10day journey unfolds through remote Sherpa villages, ancient monasteries, rhododendron forests, and peaceful trails that echo chants from nearby Gumbas.
You’ll visit the Thupten Chholing
Monastery, meet warm Sherpa families, and stay in cozy teahouses serving hearty
local meals. Unlike the crowded Everest Base Camp route, Pikey Peak Trek offers
a more tranquil experience—ideal for travelers who want to enjoy authentic
Sherpa culture, panoramic mountain views, and sustainable tourism. With Guru
Travels Ltd., every detail is managed professionally—permits, guides,
transport, and safety—so you can focus on what matters: nature, peace, and
connection.
