For those wanting a feel of the Khumbu region then the ascent of Pike Peak in the less-visited Soluregion will be a cherished experience.
Lying just to the south of the original EverestTrail from Bhandar we pass through authentic Sherpa villages. From the Linkhu Khola we climb steadily through terraced fields, on the trail we find rhododendron and magnolia forest. We now leave the villages behind us and ascend further through hemlock firs to the cheese factory at Ngaur. The following day we climb ascend the summit of Pike Peak giving spectacular views of Gaurishankar, Thamsherkhu, NumberHimal, Makalu and Everest.
