Mera Peak Adventure - 20 Days
Tantalizingly standing to the south of the mighty Everest (8848m), the Mera Peak (6654m) is the highest permitted trekking peak in Nepal. The peak dominates the watershed between the heavily wooded valley of Hinku and Hongu Drangkas. First conquered jointly by James Owen Merion Roberts (England) and Sen Tenzing (Nepal), on 20 May 1953, the Mera Peak has since then lured many mountain aspirants to try its summit. About 700 foreigners scale Mera peak each year.
Mera Peak Climbing is a moderately challenging venture. There are many routes to the peak, but all of them are fairly difficult. For the novice climbers, this mission offers a thrilling opportunity to try some Himalayan rock and ice. The ascent is not that technical as such but one needs good adaptation to the soaring altitudes and some basic know-how of the climbing equipments, including ice axe and crampons.
“Slow and steady”, is the name of the game. As usual, to gain successful ascent, we head up slowly to the base camp which gives us plenty of time to be properly acclimatized. After attaining the summit, the trail crosses the Mingbo La Pass/ Tashi Lapcha (5871m) and gradually descends to the classic Everest route towards Chhokung. Thus, we conclude this thrilling expedition at Lukla.
Climbing this peak requires a special permit from the Nepal Mountaineering Association.
