Mera Peak (6,461 m)

16 Days

It is thought to be the second most famous climbing peak of Khumbu region, after Island peak. It has 3 major summits – Mera Peak North, Mera Peak Middle and Mera Peak South. Mera Peak North is the highest among them and South peak is the smallest. They have altitudes of 6,476m, 6,461m and 6,065m respectively. From the Mera summit, we can enjoy the stunning 360-degree view of eight-thousanders, such as Mt Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu, Choyou, etc.) Let us warn you that this is the most difficult climbing peak, so reaching on the summit of this peak is quite challenging and dangerous. Therefore, you need to be ready to face that difficulty by having the good preparation of necessary equipment and physical fitness. High-altitude glacier walking and climbing through snow-capped steep way can be amazing and also quite terrifying. However, every year, many adventure seekers succeed in reaching the top of Mera.
