Mera Peak Climbing

The 16-day Mera Peak Climbing Itinerary takes you to Nepal’s highest trekking peak, Mera Peak, located in the Hinku Valley of the Everest Region. Known for its relatively easy climbing route, Mera Peak is a popular choice for climbers and serves as an excellent acclimatization peak for those planning to tackle Mount Everest or other major peaks in the Khumbu Region.

The trail to Mera Peak ventures into the remote Hinku Valley, an off-the-beaten-path destination rarely visited by trekkers. The area is wild and pristine, with minimal human settlements, offering a truly secluded Himalayan experience. Most nights are spent in teahouses situated at isolated kharkas or yak summer camps, providing an authentic high-altitude adventure.
