Pikey Peak Short Trek for the best view of Everest without flying to Lukla | Short Trek in Nepal

About Short Pikey Peak Trek

If you're looking for the best views of Mount Everest, there are plenty of trek routes to choose from in the Himalayan region. While many trekkers opt for the common path, why not try the less-walked path to experience something unique?

Edmund Hillary, the first climber to summit Mount Everest, believed that the Pikey Peak Trail is the best trek for Everest viewing. And he might be right! From Pikey Peak, you'll witness a stretched skyline that encompasses even the farthest points. The horizon stretches wide, fitting in mountains from Dhaulagiri to Kanchenjunga. It's truly magical as high peaks disappear into the clouds towards the edges.

This trek is one of Nepal's best-kept secrets, offering a vista of Nepal's eight-thousanders from a single location, including Mt Everest. You'll also see Annapurna, Manaslu, Cho Oyu, Makalu, Lhotse, Kangchenjunga, and other eight-thousanders lurking behind small but closer peaks throughout this walking journey.

To reach Pikey Hill, your journey starts from Phaplu, around 2500m, and you make your way through Salleri, Ghunsa, Jhapre, etc. Alternatively, you can start from Pattale and make your way through Jhapre to Pikey Base Camp. Along the way, you'll visit beautiful villages populated by hardworking and kind Sherpa people, as well as some Tamang and Magar. You'll also visit several monasteries adorned with prayer flags and colorful writings in Tibetan languages.

Jhapre is an excellent spot to catch a local cultural performance that displays their proud traditions. This newly explored destination is a less touristic area, which means you'll have enticing chances to view Everest from close proximity and learn about Sherpa culture. If you're up for an adventure and want to experience something unique, Pikey Peak Trail is the perfect choice!
