Overview

Mera Peak is one of the most beautiful and the highest of Nepal’s permitted trekking peak. It rises from the south of Everest and dominates the watershed between the wild and heavily wooded valleys of the Hinku and Hongu Drangkas, and is not truly speaking part of the Khumbu Himal. Both the Hongu and Hinku Valleys remain uninhabited although there are few Kharka in the upper Hinku basin. Its an easy snow climb from the Mera, but sometimes crevasses complicate the route. Far and above the most rewarding aspect of a trip to Mera is a chance to venture into a little-visited and as yet un spoilt region of Nepal, where the hillsides are still densely forested and a need to be self-sufficient is essential. Mera can be approached from different directions; none are easy and some require the crossing of high and difficult passes, making a trek to the peak a real mountaineering adventure for which effort is rewarded with spectacular scenery and ultimately one of the finest viewpoints in Nepal.
