The Mele–Pike Peak (4,065 m / 13,337 ft) Cultural & Scenic Trek is a rewarding journey through diverse cultures, traditional villages, fertile farmlands, and breathtaking Himalayan landscapes. This trek offers a rare opportunity to experience the authentic lifestyle of the Sherpa people while exploring their villages, customs, and rich cultural heritage. The region is rich in biodiversity, where trekkers may spot the Dafe (Himalayan Monal), other rare bird species, musk deer, and occasionally the elusive Red Panda. The route also passes through the Chilim Data tea garden, adding a unique cultural and agricultural highlight.
In the lower regions, Chhetri, Brahmin, Newar, Gurung, Bhujel, Kami, and Damai communities live side by side, while the mid-hills are home to Sunuwar and Tamang communities, creating a vibrant cultural blend. The trek begins near Pokali Jharna, Nepal’s second-longest waterfall, and continues to Mele village (3,000 m), where trekkers stay for two nights. One day is spent exploring nearby forests, enjoying birdwatching and wildlife, while another day focuses on visiting Sunuwar, Tamang, and Sherpa villages to observe traditional farming, local markets, and rural lifestyles.
The trail continues through scenic Sherpa villages such as Thole Demba and leads to Pike Peak, offering stunning panoramic views of Everest, Kanchenjunga, Gaurishankar, Manaslu, Langtang, and Ganesh Himal. Supporting local communities through organic local food and products, this trek is accessible year-round and offers a truly unforgettable Himalayan experience.
