Overview
Mera Peak 6476m is a mountain in the Mahalangur section, Barun sub-section of the Himalaya and administratively in Nepal’s Sagarmatha Zone, Solukhumbu District and claimed to be the highest trekking peak in Nepal. From the summit, five 8,000m peaks are visible: Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu, and Kangchenjunga, as well as many other Himalayan peaks.
Mera Peak climbing
Mera peak climbing starts after 35 minutes flight from Kathmandu to Tenzing Hillary Lukla Airport. From Lukla to Khare, we sleep and eat in Lodge. Mera Base Camp and High Camp, we sleep and eat at Tent Camp. The walk from Lukla through the Sherpa regions of the remote Hinku valley is an unforgettable experience. This peak is located south of Everest in the Hinku valley and is relatively easier to climb than most other peaks. Standing proudly erect at an altitude of 6476m, Mera Peak is the most popular and highest trekking peak in Nepal. This fairly challenging climbing has been designed to cater to trekkers’ adventure needs to explore Mera peak from length to breadth. Our Climbing guide will teach you some technique to use climbing gears in Mera Peak Base Camp and High Camp. On the summiting day, you will start around 2 or 3 am in the morning to avoid the wind. From the summit, you will have imaging view of Mt. Everest (8848m), Lhotse(8516m), Cho-Oyu (8201m), Makalu(8463m), Kanchenjunga(8698m), Nuptse(7855m), Amadablam (6812m) and Chamlang (7319m) amongst many more above 6000m to below 8000m. This climbing allows sufficient time for any reasonably physically fit person to make a comfortable ascent. After the summit, we will trek back to Lukla.
You need personal climbing gears (Backpack, Sleeping Bag, Ice axe, Harness, Helmet, Climbing or Plastic Boots, Wind prove gloves, Jumar, flashlight, Carabiner, Snow glass, Safety ropes, Warm Hat, Warm sucks, Wind prove Gore-Tex Jacket and Trouser, warm clothes etc. ) to summit this peak. We will provide fixed rope, main ropes, tents, mats and all the kitchen gears. If you have, you can bring your own gears. If you do not have, you can rent in Kathmandu or Khare.
