For those wanting a feel of the Khumbu region then the ascent of Pike Peak and visit to Dudh Kunda in the less-visited Solu region will be a cherished experience.
Lying just to the south of the Everest original Trail from Bhandar we pass through authentic Sherpa villages. From the LinkhuKhola we steadily climb through terraced fields, on the trail of hill region we find rhododendron and magnolia forest. We continue via a large Buddhist Monastery to a series of beautiful lakes of which Dudh Kunda (4190m) is the most revered.
In between the culture, beauty spots and typical villages there are forests of Rhododendrons (In March and April full with pink and crimson flowers!) pine, seamed with plants and shrubs.
Troops of monkeys live a happy life and we can spot deer and other animals. The snow peaks of Mt Everest (8848m), Makalu (8475m) Kanchenjunga (8598m) and many more peaks then Phapplu we will fly back to Kathmandu.
