The walk to reach the top of Nangkartshang Peak takes approximately 2-3 hrs, and from the top, you will be able to see the beautiful views of Mt. Tawache, Ama Dablam, Island Peak, Lhotse, Everest, and Pumori. There is also the option of visiting Chhukung Ri (5546m) altitude which is a very popular trekking peak in the Khumbu Valley.
