Mera Peak Climbing

Trip Overview

Situated at an altitude of 21,825 ft. above the sea level, Mera Peak is the highest of all Nepal’s official trekking peaks. The peak is located in the Hinku Valley. It is a challenging and thrilling task even for the adventurers to climb Mera’s summit, however the views on the way up are truly spectacular! No doubt, the fun begins early on the journey — long before we reach Mera Peak, and this is the ideal time for adventure and discovery.

Mera Peak (6,654 m) stands to the south of Everest and dominates the watershed between the heavily wooded valleys of the Hinku and Hongu Drangkas. All the routes are difficult; some of them require crossing very high and difficult passes. This leads to a true mountaineering experience. The climbing offers a panoramic view of Chamlang, Kangchenjunga, Makalu, and Baruntse in the east and the peaks of Cho-Oyu, Ama Dablam and Kangtega to the west. Everest can be viewed to the north over the massive unclimbed south face of Lhotse and the Nuptse/Lhotse ridge.
