Mera Peak Climbing

Arrive in Kathmandu and transfer to hotel. Meet your Climbing Sherpa guide, check equipment and conduct any last preparations for the trek.

We take morning flight from Kathmandu to Lukla(2800m) and spend the rest of the day in Lukla for acclimatization.

A leisurely trek from Lukla to Chutanga through pine and rhododendron forests.

This is a challenging day as you hike up nearly 1200m (4000 feet) to cross over the Zatrwa La Pass and then descend to Khartitang at 3900m.

Trek from Tuli Kharka up the beautiful Hinku Valley to Kothe or Gotay (4095m) this takes about five hours.

We continue up the Hinku Valley as the forest gives way and the vegetation becomes more sparse. We will enjoy fantastic view of south face of Mera Peak throughout the day.

Rest and acclimatization day at Thangnak. We will take a day hike for acclimatization to Sabal Tsho Lake and hike to the cairn (5271m) on the flank of Kusum Kangguru (6367m).

Trek from Tangnang to Khare where you will have excellent views of Kyashar, Mera and Kusum Kangru.

Trek and climb from Khare to Mera Base Camp. Your guide will give you some training on the basic use of crampons, rope and ice axe.

Trek and climb from Mera Base Camp to High camp. High camp lies on rock ledge perched just above the glacier with fantastic views of the surrounding summits.

Today is the big day. We start around 1am so as to reach the summit by sunrise and descend all the way to Khare by afternoon. The quick decent means a long day of trekking but fewer problems with acclimatization.

We retrace our route down the Hinku Valley to Kothe

Continue hiking down the Hinku Valley to Thuli Kharka

This is the last big day as we climb over Zatrwa La (4600m) once again on the way back to Lukla. This is last evening in the mountains.
