About Mera Peak
Mera Peak is a peak in Nepal’s Sagarmatha Zone in the Mahalangur section, a section of the Himalayas in Northeast Nepal. At 6,476m, Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in the country.
The mountain has three main summits Mera North(6,476m), Mera Central(6,461m), and Mera South(6,065m). It lies in the same region as the mountain section of three eight-thousanders: Mt Everest, Mt Lhotse, and Mt Cho Oyu.
The peak is an attraction for all sorts of climbers. However, it is more popular among the newbies and those preparing to climb the eight-thousanders’. It was initially explored by the members of the famous British expeditions (the first to climb Mt Everest). Tenzing Norgay, Eric Shipton, Edmund Hillary, and George Lowe are the pioneers of Mera Peak.
Col. Jimmy Roberts and Tenzing first scaled the Mera Central among the three summits. Likewise, the Mera North summit was climbed first by French climbers in 1975. And the Mera South was touched by Mal Duff and Ian Tattersall in 1986.
Overall, Mera Peak has been a top destination for mountaineering since the early 50s. The Mera Peak Climbing is worth doing for experimenting with your climbing skills and expanding the limits.
Mera Peak Climbing Route
Mera Peak Climbing Route passes through the Everest Region, the ultimate place for trekkers and climbers. The adventure commences with a magnificent flight to Lukla. Upon landing at Lukla Airport, you trek to Chhuthang, the ending point of the first day.
From Chhuthang, the path goes towards Thuli Kharka via Zatrawala pass. You have already hit the 4000m altitude by this time. After the night in Thuli Kharka, it is time to approach Kothe. The journey to Mera Peak will continue similarly through Thangnak and Khare. It will be a fantastic time around the Sherpa villages of the Khumbu Region.
Khare will host the first acclimatization day of Mera Peak Climbing. It is vital to acclimate to the altitudes before going further up. So, a full-day rest will happen in Khare. While in Khare, you will do a hike and perform basic climbing training. Following the day in Khare, it is time to move toward Mera Peak. On the first stretch, the expedition will march towards Mera Base Camp(5,300m). You will settle in a tented camp in the foothills of Mera Peak.
Following Mera Base Camp, the climb towards Mera High Camp will start. You will not go higher than the high camp. The next day, you will push for the Mera Peak summit early in the morning. You will use the standard Mera Peak route from the north. It will be a bit technical for the newbies but an easy climb for the experienced ones.
You will celebrate the summit with a clear panorama of the whole region from the top. And, on the same day, you descend back to Khare. So the summit day will be the most extended and most demanding day of all. Following the successful climb of Mera Peak, you return to Khare, and the walk will direct towards Lukla. You will use the same route to Lukla via Thuli Kharka and Zatrawala Pass.
Arriving in Lukla will be the end of the trek of Mera Peak Climbing. Next, you fly back to Kathmandu. Consequently, it will be the end of Mera Peak Climbing.

After the drop, the trail is a bit bumpy with regular downhills and uphills. Most of the trek will pass via thick and green woods of pines, oaks, and rhododendrons. If it is spring, the forest will look vibrant with the colorful flowers of rhododendrons.
Ahead, we will enter the beautiful Hinku Valley. As we enter the valley, we get a glimpse of Mera Peak. Along with that, we will be able to catch captivating views of other peaks.

Next, we will leave the place to reach Gondishung, an ancient Buddhist gompa. The climbers going to Mera Peak lit an oil lamp at the gompa for a successful climb. We will do the same at the shrine. Not too far from Gondishung, we will come across the monumental art of Mera Peak sketched on a rock.
We get back on the trail after some great minutes around the sites to complete the trek. The road ahead is not too difficult. We will be doing a straightforward walk to reach Thangnak.

Along with terminal moraine, we will walk on a glacial path from Dig glacier to Dig Karka.
After the trek on glaciers, we will reach the foothills of Khare. We have to climb the hill to see ourselves in Khare. So, we will do this climb, which will take around 3-4 hours. The road in between is steep, rocky, and slippery. We will walk carefully on the uphill path. And finally, come to Khare at the end of the climb. Overnight in Khare’s teahouse.
- Day 08: Rest at Khare
Khare(5,000m) is an acclimatization point for every Mera Peak climber. It is also the final stop before moving towards Mera Peak’s base camp. So, a free day at Khare is a must for us. We will not gain any altitude, at least for the day. As we are already above 5,000m, we need to acclimate to the elevations before going higher.
Plus, proper rest and acclimatization are necessary before any mountain expedition. On this trip, we are climbing the tallest trekking peak in Nepal. So, this day is important for all Mera climbers. We will make the most of the day by going around Khare. It is perfect for short hikes around the villages. Without gaining more altitudes, we can get breathtaking mountain views of Mera Peaks and other peaks. So we will spend the day in this way.

Following Mera La Pass, we will take a snowy path that goes even higher. Once again, it will be a walk on a steep, rocky, and icy trail.

The day of the Mera Peak Climbing is here. It is the day to summit Mera Peak. As this is the longest day of the trek, we start climbing early in the morning. We aim to reach Mere Peak’s summit before noon as it gets windy afterward. So, following the lead of our expert climbing guide, we will approach the trails.
Mera Peak climbing is not that technical. If we know basic climbing and follow our guides, we can easily reach the top. However, it is not an easy job to climb any peak in the world. It is only relatively more accessible. We will have several crevasses to cross during the summit push. Crampons and installed rope will help us climb through the steep section.
Doing that part, we will be at the top of Mera Peak. From the apex of Mera Peak, we will catch mesmerizing views of Everest, Cho Oyu, Makalu, Pumori, Lhotse, Lobuche, and others and have a precise time there. Following a memorable time, we start dropping towards Khare. The exact path will be retraced to Khare. We will reach Khare for an excellent night.
- Day 12: Reserve day in case of bad weather
The weather in the mountains is never rightly predictable. For that reason, we have a reserved day for bad weather. Sometimes, we must wait to climb the summit in case the weather changes.

We will start by joining a forested trail to Hinku valley. The trek will take us to the western side of the valley.

Best Time for Mera Peak Climbing
The best times for Mera Peak Climbing are Autumn and Spring. And the possible times for the climb are all year round. Yes, you can be part of this expedition at any time of the year. Some people have climbed the world’s highest mountains during all four seasons, including Winter and Monsoon. Thus, Mera Peak climbing is possible throughout the year. However, Autumn and Spring are the most OK times for the expedition.
Autumn(September- November) is the perfect time for visiting Nepal. The weather across the country is calm and okay during this season. You do have to face frequent weather changes. Instead, you get favorable conditions for trekking and climbing. Clear skies, bright sunny days, warm temperatures, and dry weather are some conditions of Autumn to name.
Likewise, Spring(March-May) is another ideal time for Mera Peak Climbing. The season is more or less similar to Autumn. However, Spring is colder and has more chances of precipitation than Autumn. The possibility of any weather disturbance is very low in this season as well. You get colorful weather as the forests get packed with flowers. The weather is also excellent for any mountain expenditure. It is the busiest time for mountaineering in Nepal.
On the other hand, Monsoon and Winter are not among the good times for Mera Peak Climbing. The weather remains variable during these two seasons. For instance, the Monsoon season has lots of rainfall and dark clouds. And Winter is the coldest time to be in the mountains. The chances of snowfall are also high. For these reasons, Winter and Monsoon are not the best times. But as said earlier, it is never impossible.
Difficulties of Mera Peak Climbing
Mera Peak, the tallest trekking peak in Nepal, is a less technical peak. But that doesn’t mean it is the easiest. The expedition has its challenges. Some people might experience them, and some not. It all depends on your level of experience and preparation. Here are some of the challenges of the expedition:
Summit Push
Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in Nepal. You must take a long trek to reach the Mera Peak base camp. Next, you have to climb the summit via Mera peak high camp. En route to the summit, you’ll be crossing crevasses, steep snowy sections, and minor technical sections. You must also use various primary climbing gears and skills to reach the summit. Although the climb is not the hardest, it can still be challenging in some way.
Distance and Trail
The distance of Mera Peak Climbing is around 125 km. That is the minimum distance you will cover on this journey. On that journey, you will have numerous uphills, downhills, glacier walking, rocky trails, and rough paths. For an ordinary man, covering that distance on such a route is not an easy task. Hence, the distance and trail nature can be a hassle.
Altitude Sickness
The next challenge of the expedition is its elevation. On this expedition, you will touch the maximum height of 6,476m(Mera Peak). The journey will start from Kathmandu(1,400m). So the whole trip from 1400m to 6,476m increases the chance of mountain sickness. If not appropriately acclimated, it can be harsh for anyone. So, the altitude is another problem.
Weather
The conditions here in Nepal might be utterly foreign to climbers. Up in the mountains, the temperature is usually around freezing level. The night hours are freezing. Plus, the weather can turn around at any time. If you are not used to such weather, you might face some challenges during this expedition.
