Mera Peak Climbing

Mera peak stands at an altitude of 6654m; it is the most popular and the highest trekking peak in Nepal. Mera Peak climbing can be graded as fairly challenging. Summit of Mera Peak Climbing offers one of the most spectacular views of entire Himalayan ranges.

Its easy standard route requires only basic mountaineering skills to achieve an altitude considerably higher than a European or North American peak. For many years the climb was Alpine Grade F (Facile / Easy), but due to recent summit block changes the final 30-40 meters has become Grade PD (Peu Difficile / not very hard). From the summit of Mera, one can see 5 of the 6 highest mountains in the world: Everest, Lhotse, Kanchenjunga, Makalu, and Cho Oyo.

The standard route from the north involves little more than high altitude glacier walking. The ease of reaching this elevation may be its biggest danger but good weather and snow conditions are, of course, necessary for safety and success. The west and south faces of the peak offer difficult technical routes.

The first ascent was on May 20, 1953, by Col. Jimmy Roberts and Sen Tenzing. The region was first explored extensively by British expeditions in the early 50’s before and after the ascent of Everest. Members of those teams included Edmund Hillary, Eric Shipton, and Geroge Lowe.

Your trip starts from Kathmandu to Lukla, taking a very thrilling flight. Lukla airport is considered to be one of the most dangerous airports as it has the shortest runway. After you land at Lukla, you trek to Chutanga for acclimatization. Next day you trek to Zatrwa La which is at an altitude of 4610 meters. You then trek to Tashi Dingma next day, to Tagnag the following day and to Khare and stop a day for acclimatization. You continue your trek to Mera La, High Camp and conquer Mera Peak. Mera Peak is at an altitude of 6476 meters. The view surrounding the Mera Peak is absolutely amazing. After stopping at Mera Peak for a certain time, you trek downwards to Khare for an overnight stay. From Khare, you trek back to Khote to Zatrwa La and finally to Lukla.

In conclusion, the day you reach Lukla, you will feel proud of yourself that you climbed one of the most amazing peaks of the Sagarmatha region. This trek will be an exciting and thrilling experience for you.
