It offers a stunning view of Mount Everest and deep valley. At Jhapre you can interact with local people and experience their way of living.
Today after having our breakfast we hike following a dusty trail, climbing the uphill trail to reach Bhulbhule. We leave Bhulbhule following a steep trail following rhododendron tree forest and small settlements of Lhamuje. From Lhamuje the trail follows a pasture where you can see yaks grazing. We further follow a winding trail that takes us to Pikey Base. Pikey Base offers only a few guesthouses with basic facilities. Unless the weather is not clear, it is suggested to stay in Pikey base rather than visiting Pikey Peak which is just 2 hours from base. Also, it is advised to take enough rest to prevent AMS.
