Mera Peak
Altitude 6476m, Duration 23 days, Grade 2B (grades)
The highest of Nepal's Trekking Peaks
Background
At 6476m Mera Peak is the highest ‘trekking peak’ suitable for anyone with little or no previous experience of using an ice axe and crampons. The spectacular route is well within the reach of regular mountain walkers with a good level of fitness. Our careful programme of acclimatisation is designed to maximise your chance of comfortably reaching this special summit.
During the course of this expedition we are constantly rewarded with fine views of world famous peaks, including the towering Everest and Lhotse. Mera Peak’s notable summit provides one of the most spectacular viewpoints in Nepal. This magical vantage point offers stunning views of five 8000m peaks, Everest and Lhotse to the north, Kanchenjunga and Makalu to the east and the majestic Cho Oyu to the west.
This expedition can be extended to include the slightly more technical Island Peak (6189m) via a crossing of the Amphu Labsta Pass, returning to Lukla down the main Everest trail.
