Pikey Peak Trek: If you’re looking for a short trek in the Everest region near Kathmandu, this is a great (less discovered) route. If you’re feeling very fit or are just short on time, this can be done in 3-4 days. But, a more leisurely 6-day trek allows for a physical workout without the stress, and a chance to visit a number of Buddhist sites (monasteries, gompas, and stupas). Both itineraries provide amazing views of the Numbur Himal range and Everest. But is it the best view of Everest in Nepal? You’ll have to see for yourself.
Take your time enjoying the unmatched scenery by adding a few more days on the Pikey Peak trek. This itinerary allows for a more leisurely pace and is well suited to trekkers who don’t want the extra physical challenge that the 3-day option requires.
