Pikey Peak Trek in the Rolwaling Everest region, also known as Dudha Kunda Trek, is a hidden gem that offers an unparalleled opportunity to explore Everest’s famed and less-trodden region away from the regular trekker crowds. This stunning and lively cultural trail to Pikey Peak has been explored by only a handful of trekkers, making it an exclusive experience. The panoramic vantage point from Pikey Peak offers breathtaking views of Everest and Dudh Kunda Lake, situated at the base of the stunning Mt. Number.
Starting with a drive to Jiri and exploring the historical places in Kathmandu, we embark on the Pikey Peak tea house trek. The route passes through terraced hillsides, Sherpa villages, and alpine forests. This Dudh Kunda trek group will be led by a medically trained trek guide. On this Pikey Peak trekking trip in the Himalayas, there will be a thorough medical package and an oxygen tank as a safety backup.
