Mera Peak (6,476 m) is Nepal’s highest trekking peak and a superb first Himalayan summit for fit trekkers. This extended 20-day program follows the quiet Hinku Valley from Lukla through Paiya, Panggom, Ningsow and Kothe, building altitude gradually before a focused block at Khare for skills and acclimatization. From Khare we stage to Mera Base Camp and High Camp for an alpine-style pre-dawn summit push.
Technically straightforward but physically demanding, Mera rewards you with one of the Himalaya’s best panoramas: on clear mornings you can see Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu and even distant Kanchenjunga. We staff professional climbing Sherpa guides, keep low client-to-guide ratios, and include two contingency days for weather or rest. Best seasons are Mar–May and Sep–Nov for stable snow and crisp views.
