Mera Peak Climbing has three summits, with the central summit usually climbing. From the top of this tallest trekking peak of Nepal, we can see an amazing view of Everest, Cho Yu, Makalu, Lhotse, and Kanchenjunga, five of which are worlds over 8000-meter tall peaks. Physical fitness and an enthusiasm for adventure are essentials for Mera Peak climbing. It means that you need not necessarily have prior experience and skills in mountaineering. Whatever skills you need are taught by our guides at the base camp. Comparatively, it is an easy peak to conquer, as its categorization as one of the “trekking peaks of Nepal” indicates. With our years-long experience in peak climbing and trekking in Nepal; you can also put aside your worries and prepare yourself for a rare taste of the Himalayas.
Mera Peak Climbing (6,470 m) for experienced mountaineers is the task of a single day. But a high camp above 5700 meters was established to ease the strain. As exciting as the experience of summitry is the trek leading to the base camp and backing up in the world-famous Everest region. Mountaineers can choose from two to three ways of reaching the base camp; choose to head back using a different route. If you do not want to climb, only the trek to its base camp also fills you with unforgettable memories and lasting experiences with the scenes and lifestyle of the Himalayas of Nepal. We begin trekking from Lukla, but first, take a domestic flight to Lukla from Kathmandu. Our trail continues via Chuthanga, Chetarbu Kharka, Kothe, Thaknak (where we will spend a whole day for acclimatization), and Khahare to Mera La High Camp.
