Exiting the forest, it’s not far to Pikey Peak base camp, approximately 2 hours away. From the base camp, it’s a short climb to the summit at 4,065 meters (13,336 feet).

Junbesi is a traditional Sherpa village at an altitude of 2,675 meters (8,776 feet) and is considered the cradle of Sherpa culture and architecture.
