Mera Peak Climbing (Expedition) - 14 Days

Mera Peak Climbing takes us to the summit of Mera Peak (6,476m) which is the highest trekking peak in Nepal. We ascend Mera Peak preferably during the spring and autumn seasons as its the best time to climb the mountain for its astonishing views of the Himalaya. Mera Peak was first summited by Jimmy Roberts and Sen Tensing in 1953 and is preferred by trekkers who want to experience the thrill of climbing but lack the skills.

Your journey starts with an early morning flight to Lukla (2,800 m) from where you will trek to Mera Peak High Camp via the Sherpa settlements of Paiya, Khothey, Tagnak and Khare. Spend a day acclimatizing in Khare and cross the Mera La Pass to reach Mera Peak High Camp.

Mera Peak has three summits among which we climb the highest one 6476m. Although it is technically an easy climb and the slopes seldom exceed 40 degrees, there are crevasses at places that demand alertness and the climb could be challenging after a fresh snowfall. Plus, the ridge that guides travelers to the top of the mountain requires a strenuous, 50-meter ascent.Mera Peak summit offers the 360-degree panoramic views including 5 world highest mountains over 8000m: Mount Everest (8848m), Kangchenjunga (8586m), Lhotse (8516m), Makalu (8485m) and Cho Oyu (8201m) as well as many other peaks of Khumbu Himalaya Region.

These reasons make Mera Peak climbing trip is a very popular destination.
