The Mera Peak expedition begins with a scenic turbulent mountain flight from Kathmandu to Lukla. Following your arrival in Lukla, the trails will take you through the untouched and natural villages of Hinku Valley. There are two trekking trails from Lukla to Mera Peak; however, we march towards Chuthanga, which is one of the less traveled trails of the Mera Peak Trail.The 18 days Mera peak expedition follows through rivers and frozen streams; Zatrawala Pass; dense fir, pine and rhododendron forest; terraced green paddy fields; glaciers and traditional villages. At first, the journey descends through the villages: Chhuthang, Zatrawala pass and Thuli Kharka; then inclines uphill tracing Kothe, Thangnak and Khare before landing at Mera Base Camp (5,300m/ 17,388ft). The final expedition from Base Camp to summit is challenging and strenuous due to thin air, steep ridge and cold temperature. The top of the peak is a serene point from where we can perceive scenic landscape and panoramic view of coruscating peaks: Nuptse, Baruntse, Ama Dablam, Kangtega, Mt. Everest, Cho-Oyu and numerous other peaks.
Mera Peak Climbing package is specially tailored by ANA as recommended by the experts. Mountaineering is absolutely challenging than trekking; so, we have added plenty of acclimatization and short day trek to avoid AMS or any hazard. To make the trekking expedition moderate and comfortable, we have hired the experienced guides who support and provide proper guidance needed for mountaineering. We have preferred safer and less-crowded trekking trails; safer and technically easier summit and best season for expedition. Throughout the expedition, we shelter at tea house up-to Khare; but at Base camp and High camp, we take shelter in camp. Mera Peak Climbing is the package for novice mountaineers and experienced trekkers who prefer venturing the summit to keep lifelong memory.
About Mera Peak: Among numerous permitted trekking peaks, Mera peak is the highest climbing peak in Nepal with the elevation of 6,476m/ 21,247ft. Erected in the east of Mt. Everest in Khumbu region, Mera peak contains three summits: Mera Peak North (6,476m/ 21,247ft), Mera Peak Central and Mera Peak South (6,065m/ 19,898ft). Out of these three summits, Mera Peak North has glaciers in the route and South side is technically demanding; therefore, we prefer Mera Peak Central (6,461m/ 21,190ft) for our expedition. It is one of the scenically elegant peaks of Mahalangur range which offers the stupendous view of sparkling peaks including 5 out of 6 world’s highest peak in Nepal: Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho-Oyu, Makalu and Kanchenjunga.
