Everest Base Camp Trek: Touch the Roof of the World

It is a challenge, fun, and a story to tell. People do Everest Base Camp first, then Three Pass. Adventure in heart forever.

Pikey Peak Trek: Hidden Gem of Nepal
The Pikey peak trek is less known but very beautiful. Small peak, less crowded, nice views of Everest, Makalu, and Lhotse. Local people are friendly, villages are small, and teahouses are few but cozy.

Always pack light but enough. Tea houses have food, but sometimes it’s simple; they carry personal items.

Nepal treks not only mountains but also culture. Sherpas, Gurungs, Tamangs, and Magars are very friendly locals. You see:
- Prayer flags

Tea houses are simple, sometimes with limited electricity, but the food is warm. Meeting locals is part of the journey.
