Manaslu, Thamserku, Numbur Himal, Kantega, Gauri Shanker, Dorje Lakpa and Meera Peak. This tour includes hiking, visiting villages, and continuing on to base camps.

According to some people, Pikey peak from Pikey base camp trek is one of the most beautiful locations. At an altitude of 4070 meters, this is a great option for those who do not want to go further. Pikey Peak had been the best viewpoint for Sir Edmund Hillary and was a popular trekking route for Everest Lovers. “Pikey Peak is the most astounding place to gaze at Mt. Everest”- Sir Edmund Hillary.

This trek offers amazing views of 8 of the highest mountain ranges from Mt. Dhaulagiri in the west to Mt. Kanchenjunga in the east. This also includes the highest peak in the world, Mt. Everest.

The Solu Salleri Road – Jiri Bhandar Road  is now easily accessible and can be called. This makes it easier for the trekking experience. You must plan your trip here to see all of the elements and beauty of this trek.
