Mera Peak Climbing is one of the highest trekking peaks for beginner mountain expedition which takes the trekkers to the height of 6,476m  Mera Peak.

Mera Peak Climbing offers exhilarating trekking experience in the wilderness with the panoramic view of the Himalayas including Everest (8,848m), Mt. Lhotse (8,516m), Cho Oyu (8,188m), Kanchenjunga (8,586m), and Makalu (8,481m) and introduces us to people and culture of Himalayan villages of Nepal like Paiya, Pangkoma, Nigmsa, Chetrakhola,  Kothe, Tangnang, and more. Mera Peak Climbing is located in Hinku valley of Khumbu region which welcomes trekkers and climbers all over the world during the autumn and spring seasons as it’s the best time to climb Mera Peak.

Mera Peak Climbing enables the climbers to climb the summit of Mera Peak with the set of climbing equipment. Mera Peak Climbing begins with a scenic flight to Lukla and continues for 6 days of the trek to Khare after entering the Khumbu region. Please note that flights can be delayed or canceled due to bad weather conditions which are quite expected in a place like Lukla. The trekkers trek along the lovely Himalayan villages and get to learn their culture. Mera Peak Climbing is the perfect peak climb for the climbers with adequate mountaineering experience. However, it can turn out to be slightly difficult for first-time mountaineers as it needs basic mountaineering skills. The trekkers will come across high passes, glacial lakes, lush Himalayan forest, moraines, and breathtaking landscape throughout the trek. With plenty of exposure to the wilderness of Nepal, Mera Peak Climbing is a perfect opportunity for expedition experience in Nepal.

Index Adventure is one of the leading trek organizers in Nepal serving the trekkers across the globe for more of Years. Our well-planned itinerary is carefully designed so that the climbers have extra days for acclimatization. Our high ratings and reviews reflect the trust our clients put on us. 

Note: Weather in Everest is unpredictable so there is high chances of delayed as well as cancellation of the scheduled flight. The rate of flight delay and cancellation in high at Lukla. During your journey, if flight cancellation happens you have to spend an extra night at Lukla/Ktm (if you are coming back to Kathmandu or going to Lukla). So, we request to spare a couple of days if you are planning to trek in the Everest region so that you will not miss your international flight. Helicopter rescue can also an option but it cost you more.

Mera Peak Climbing Itinerary

Today is our rest day. It is not suggested to stay idle instead we have to stay energetic to be ready for the next day's adventure. So after breakfast, we trek for about 3 hours up to Charpate Himal Glacier. Seen very close from Tangnag, Charpate Himal is considered holy by the Sherpa community and is adored by the locals for its square-like shape. We will get an outstanding view of Mera North (6,476m) from here. After an hour's enjoyable trek downhill, we will be back at the camp in Tangnag. Overnight in Tangnag. 

Farewell! We will drop you at the Airport to connect you with your scheduled flight.

This morning we will board the Lukla flight again, the difference being this time you will be bound for Kathmandu. An amazing view of the high Himalayas and later of the towering hills serves us until we land in Kathmandu. You will be transferred to your hotel, after which you can explore the city.

Today we return to Lukla, from where the trip had started. We make a steep ascent to Zatrwa La (4,610m) and then descend along the ridge to reach Lukla. Upon arrival in Lukla, we will take time to enjoy the accomplishment of Mera Peak summit, as a group and as an individual. We will also have enough time to explore the place.

The trail from Kothe to Thuli Kharka takes us back to the forested areas with lines of blue Himalayan pines and rhododendrons.

A big day today! Beginning very early for the summit, our path leads with a sheer ascent, where our Sherpas have already fixed ropes on necessary sections. After a strenuous climb without any technical struggle, we reach the summit of Mera Peak (6,476m). A dream becomes true with an awe-inspiring panorama that surrounds us. Mt. Everest (8,848m), Mt.

Walk through rock scattered course to reach Mera High Camp. We have to make a sheer ascent to Mera La (5,415m) through the icy moraines and follow the trail amid Mera Glacier and Naule Glacier to reach Mera High Camp.

Today we leave the meadows and head towards Khare on a rocky trail. We follow the moraine route to Dig Kharka, which offers spectacular views of Charpate Himal.

We continue to ascend on the ridge above Inkhu Khola while walking under the shadow of Mera Peak (6,476m). We make a short stop in Gondishung, the summertime herders' settlement on the west bank of Inkhu River. Beyond Gondishung, we cross a 200-year-old Lungsumgba Gompa along with the rock on which Mera Peak is scripted. We pray for our successful climb of Mera Peak (6,476m) offering incense in the Gompa. A short ascend from the Gompa takes us to Tangnag, which is dotted with basic lodges and shops. Overnight in Tangnag.

A little further from the bamboo jungle and past a nice stone cave by the side of Inkhu River, we will camp for the night. Overnight in Chhetra Khola.
