Mera peak climbing


Mera Peak is usually, and perhaps incorrectly, regarded as the highest official trekking peak in Nepal. The confusion stems from its altitude and location being misreported by the Nepal Mountaineering Association. Mera peak is a mountain that lies in the Himalayas, specifically in the Sagarmatha Region of Nepal. Hiking through the busy trails to Everest Base Camp and quiet passes, this trip leads us to sparsely inhabited Hinku Valley. Hiking all the way through a beautiful high alpine surroundings we can see Mera peak soaring over the valley with the altitude of 6476 meters. Dominating the watershed above the wide and thickly forested valley, Mera peak rises to the south of Everest showcasing four of the world’s highest mountains.
There are several approaches to the base camp besides the easy and normal route which is mentioned below. The normal route for climbing Mera Peak climbing  is North Face Glacier from the Mera La.
