Short Pikey Peak Trek in Nepal is off the beaten lower Khumbu trekking trail. This is one of the most astounding trekking courses for the panoramic view of the landscape. There are numerous walking routes where trekkers can enjoy walking without fear of altitude sickness. Karma Eco Adventure Nepal offers a wide variety of trekking packages. Therefore, Trekkers can choose any of these trips according to their suitability. From low altitude to high altitude passes; the agency has all. Likewise, plan your trip to Pikey Peak today. This is the best viewpoint of a low-altitude locale which offers a majestic view of Mt. Everest (8,848 m).
Moreover, Sir Hillary himself recommended the place as the jewel of Lower Khumbu. Apart from the view of Mt. Everest the top of Pikey Peak (4,065 m) offers the scenery of Mt. Kanchenjunga (8,586 m) and Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167 m) as well. The trail is full of picturesque landscapes including grassy meadows and forests. For the vantage point to observe sunrise and sunset the trail is highly recommended. The word Pikey is derived from the Sherpa scriptures. This refers to the divine hill. Short Pikey Peak Trek is full of multi-ethnic villages and natural wonders too. Trekkers have to take the flight to Phaplu airport for the start of the walking journey. Relish the chance to encounter Brahmins, Chhetris, Untouchables, Rai, and Sherpa people.
The best time to trek on this trail is in August. The blooming flowers of rhododendrons, magnolias, and orchids make it the most effervescent destination. Trekkers don’t need to become fearful of altitude sickness as well. Moreover, the rich scenery is a bonus. Unique Adventure International is a few Trekking agencies in Nepal that expertly sells this trekking package. Be at the divine hilltop which acquired its name “Pikey” from Sherpa Clan scriptures. Witness the overwhelming masses of snowcapped mountains and rejoice in the swashbuckling lower Khumbu.
Short Pikey Peak Trek is the best alternative to low-altitude Everest View Trekking. Therefore, book the trip with us and enjoy the locale once visited by the great Sir Edmund Hillary.
