Mera Peak Climbing

There are countless snowy mountains in Nepal. In fact, the country is home to more than 1900 snow-capped mountains and is an ideal destination to quench your thirst for reaching the summit of a mountain. You must know first about the difference between expedition and peak climbing. Both these terms are used to describe climbing mountains. However, expedition refers to climbing mountains above 7000 m height and peak climbing refers to climbing trekking peaks below 7000 m height. It should also be noted that some of the mountains below the expedition altitude level require an expedition permit due to technical reasons. For example, Mt. Amadablam (6812 m) and Lobuche West (6145 m) are trekking peaks but the climber must get an expedition permit from the Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA). Choose the Mera Peak Climbing in Nepal and reach the top of Nepal’s highest trekking peak!

What are the different itineraries of the Mera Climbing trip?

The team of travel planners here at the Himalayan Trekking Path consists of Everest Summiteer, Sherpa guides, and International Mountain Guides. Therefore, our itineraries are always less risky and more gains in terms of safety and success rate. Climbing any mountains is divided into two parts. The first part is the trek to the base camp of the mountain and the second part is to climb to the top. The trekking portion is led by a trekking guide and the climbing portion is led by a Sherpa Climbing guide. It is equally crucial to operate the trek to base camp in the best possible way with enough acclimatization. We offer you three options to reach Mera Base Camp either from the Lukla section or from the Khari Khola section.

For Mera Peak Climbing flight to Lukla or a road trip to Khari Khola via Salleri are two major options to start the trek. In addition to these two trekking routes, the Paiya route is considered the classical Mera Peak Climbing trek route. All these options are available with us at the best possible rate.

Lukla to Zatrwa La Pass (4620 m)

The most popular and shorter itinerary of Mera Peak Climbing is from the town of Lukla. The Lukla Flight takes about 35 minutes from Kathmandu or 15 minutes from Manthali Airport Ramechhap. Please check with our travel planners to know more about the Lukla Flights. If you are using the flight then Lukla is the trailhead of this trekking route. Trekkers have to trek on a well-maintained trail for about 3 hours through green lush forests and scenery of outstanding deeper valleys with long mountain ranges in the background. The trail gradually ascends slightly steeper a few meters before reaching Chutanga village which is a small village with few tea houses located in the small valley in the middle of the gigantic hill. The trekking from Chutanga to Thuli Kharka via Zatrwa La Pass is challenging. Trekkers have to walk uphill on a winding trail full of pebbles and rocky boulders. They have to cross several stone and wooden bridges over small streams. The most daunting section is the stone staircase section few meters before reaching the top of the pass. Finally, on this day, trekkers can see the final destination, Mount Mera. Once at the top, trekkers can trek downhill to Thuli Kharka. It is the hardest way of doing the trek but it is equally scenic as well as consists of a shorter itinerary.

How to reach Khari Khola and avoid Lukla Flight for Mera Climbing?

Avoid the Lukla flight by choosing the road trip from Kathmandu to Khari Khola via Salleri. The road trip to Salleri is about 6 to 7 hours and it takes about 5 to 6 hours to reach Khari Khola from Salleri. The drive from Salleri to Khari Khola is on a bumpy graveled road. Therefore, you will have to use the four-wheeled jeep. Upon reaching here, trekkers trek to Pangomm which is in the Mera Circuit Trek route. The advantage of using Khari Khola route is that your trip becomes guaranteed departure! The major hurdle for any kinds of climbing or trekking in the Everest region of Nepal is the unpredictable nature of Lukla Flights.

Taking Lukla to Paiya Route as a Mera Circuit Trek

The classical way to reach Mera Peak is by taking the route of Paiya. Trekkers have to use Lukla flight and descend downhill to Surke and then uphill climb to Paiya. There are many passes in this section and a relatively longer itinerary. However, the scenery of mountains and authentic Sherpa villages are more in this section. There are terraced farmlands, countless streams, villages, monasteries, and diverse vegetation in this trail in comparison to Zatrwa La Pass route.

How difficult is to reach Mera Summit?

To reach Mera Summit, climbers don’t require oxygen and extreme technical knowledge. A rope tied with the climbing guide and good pair of crampons attached climbing shoes are enough to reach the top. However, you require good amount of physical fitness and cardio-vascular abilities. There is less density of oxygen in the high-altitude places. The air is thin and there are many steep uphill/downhill sections. The highest place to spend overnight during this trip is at the Mera High Camp which is at an altitude of 5800 m from sea level. So, don’t underestimate the trip of climbing Mera Peak even if it is the easiest trekking peak to climb in Nepal.

Do I get to see Mount Everest from Mera Top?

The top of Mera Peak offers splendid scenery of 5 top 10 mountains of the world including the world’s tallest Mt. Everest. Relish the chance to witness mountains like Makalu, Lhotse, Choyou, and Kanchenjunga from the top of Mount Mera. Besides these mountains, climbers can enjoy other various mountains including the mountains of the Tibetan region.

What is the success rate of Climbing Mount Mera?

The success rate of climbing Mount Mera is considerably higher than most of the trekking peaks of Nepal. The lack of technical requirements has increased the chances of successful ascent of the mountain. In an average, the success rate of climbing Mera is about 80 to 90 %. The major obstacles in successful climbing are the fatigue or bodily injury (diseases) and risk of altitude sickness. If you follow the proper itinerary prepared by the Himalayan Trekking Path then the success rate may become 100 % as our record is cent percentage in terms of climbing Mera! Stay hydrated and heed instructions of our guides to increase the chances of reaching the top.

Do I need training to climb Mera? Where do I get training to climb the mountain?

You don’t need extensive mountain climbing training to climb Mera Peak. All you need to know is the way to use rope while climbing and walking with crampons on! Build the physical fitness level and choose the right companion to climb. Climbers get basic rope handling training, walking with crampons, and mountaineering communication language in Khare acclimatization day. Behind the village on a small ridge, Sherpa guides help you do the drill repetitively until you get used to it before attempting to climb the mountain.

Can a beginner successfully complete the Mera Trekking Peak Climbing?

Yes, Mera Trekking Peak Climbing is suitable for all kinds of climbers including a beginner. As mentioned above, you require strong mental strength and good physical fitness to successfully complete the Mera Trekking Peak Climbing. For more details, contact our travel planners and state your body conditions as well as your motive to climb Mera. Our team of experts will help you overcome any kind of fear as well as provide you with proper climbing instructions. We help you fulfill your dream of reaching the summit of a snowy mountain!

Which is harder Kilimanjaro or Mera?

Mount Kilimanjaro (5895 m) is the highest mountain of the African Continent of the world. While comparing the difficulty level of Mera and Kilimanjaro, it is fairly difficult to do Mera than Kilimanjaro. However, climbers have to walk long hours during Kilimanjaro climbing but for Mera frequent acclimatization and average 6 hours of walking is enough. In terms of the trekking trail, too Mera Peak is difficult as climbers have to climb over the glacier and rocky rugged trail in Mera trip. However, the risk of altitude sickness is high on both these trips.

From which point do I need to wear crampons to climb Mera?

Trekkers have to wear crampons from Mera Base Camp which is about 2 to 3 hours from Khare. However, it depends upon the condition of the trail. If it is icy then you can use crampons otherwise on a rocky trail, we will not use the crampons. There are a few crevasses along the way. Walking on a vast glacier up to Mera High Camp offers the quintessential scenery of mountains like Everest and Nuptse.

How hard is it to stay in Mera High Camp?

The floor of a tent in Mera High Camp is unstable and you may have to sleep overnight in a hard surface. Staying overnight in 5800 m altitude is never easy but enough acclimatization and company of good guides and crew members will help you stay overnight in Mera High Camp easily. The campsite is at the edge of a cliff on a rocky face with a vertical ridge at the back. From the top of the ridge, we can see the beautiful large valley of Khare and beyond.

Cost of Climbing Mera Peak

The cost of Climbing Mera Peak differs according to the number of days and climbers’ preferences. On average, the cost starts from 2000 $ to 5000 $ per person.

As we resume our walk down the hill, we’ll go across a wooden bridge. From this point onwards until the time we overcome Kari La Pass (3,145m), it is slippery, so be cautious while hiking in this segment of the route. The tapered mountain trail now advances through the woodland of rhododendron and bamboo and continues along the banks of the Dudh Koshi River to Pangkoma (2,804m), a tiny yet serene village whose inhabitants engage in farming and trading to sustain their daily lives. Enjoy the sublime mountain scenery en route.

Mera Peak Difficulty

Mera Peak, towering at an impressive elevation of 6467m above sea level, holds the title of the highest trekking peak in the Nepal Himalayas. It is a favorite among novice climbers, serving as a stepping stone for more technical ascents such as Mt. Everest and Mt. Amadablam. Considered a beginner's or non-technical peak, Mera Peak is categorized as Alpine Grade PD in terms of difficulty. This classification indicates that the climb involves some technical aspects and challenging glacial crossings. The shift from Grade F to PD reflects a reevaluation of the peak's difficulty based on updated route conditions and a better understanding of the climbing challenges. The change in grade is also attributed to the presence of glaciated moraines and a demanding, steep final stretch. It is essential to have good physical fitness, as well as proper trekking and climbing equipment, before attempting to conquer Mera Peak.

Prepare for the Acute Mountain Sickness

While embarking on the Mera Peak Climbing Expedition, it is important to be aware of the risk of acute mountain sickness. However, there are measures that can be taken to prevent this issue. As the Himalayan trekking path company, we recommend following specific guidelines to ensure a safe and enjoyable trek to Mera Peak without succumbing to mountain sickness. The changing oxygen levels due to elevation gain and varying climates can impact your health, so it is crucial to follow these steps daily throughout the journey to prepare yourself and minimize the risk of altitude sickness.

  • Adhere to the guidance provided by the trekking guide and maintain a leisurely pace while walking.
  • Hydrate yourself adequately by consuming approximately 4 to 5 liters of purified water every day.
  • Embrace the beauty of nature and avoid rushing while walking.
  • Refrain from consuming any food items that may potentially disrupt your digestive system.
  • It is advisable to abstain from alcohol consumption throughout the trekking journey.
  • Ensure that you carry a few first aid kits containing medications such as Dioria, Vhometing, Feaver, Stomached, and Diamox for altitude sickness.
  • Prior to embarking on the trek, it is recommended to consult with your doctor.
  • Take regular breaks every 30 to 45 minutes of walking to rest and rejuvenate.

 

Travel Insurance 

When embarking on a trekking or mountaineering adventure in Nepal, especially on routes like Mera Peak Climbing, it is not only important but mandatory to have travel insurance. This is because it is a requirement for obtaining trekking permits and can prove invaluable in emergencies, covering medical expenses and lost belongings. To ensure a confident, joyful, and enjoyable journey, we strongly recommend selecting a suitable insurance policy. Although insurance is not included in our package, we are more than happy to provide recommendations if needed. There are several insurance providers that specialize in adventure and high-altitude trekking coverage, such as World Nomads, IMG, and Seven Corners. You can visit their websites or contact them directly to inquire about coverage options for your specific trek and climbing expedition.

Mountain Amenities

Kindly note that the mountain amenities mentioned, such as wifi and internet access, mobile phone and recharge services, hot showers, drinking water, and charging facilities, are not included in our Mera Peak climbing package. These services are available at an additional cost. Please be informed that you can avail of these amenities by paying an extra fee.

  • Drinking Water: During high-elevation treks or climbs, it is essential to stay hydrated in order to prevent mountain sickness. Hydration plays a crucial role in Mera Peak Climbing travel, and it is advisable to consume 3 to 4 liters of drinkable water daily. There are several options available to obtain clean water while on your journey, such as using a filter or purification tablets to treat spring water. Alternatively, you can purchase bottled water or boil water for consumption. If you prefer hot water, make sure to carry suitable containers. The cost of a one-liter bottle can range from Rs 150 to Rs 350, depending on the altitude.
  • Hot Shower: During the extensive day of hiking, it is crucial to ensure a good night's rest to rejuvenate, which can be complemented by a refreshing shower. Regrettably, hot showers are not part of the Mera Peak climbing package. Nevertheless, most teahouses and homestays in the vicinity offer hot shower amenities for an extra charge. These showers are operated using either gas or solar energy. As you set off on your Mera Peak Climbing Expedition, you can take advantage of a shower at a reasonable price. The cost per person per shower typically varies from Rs. 200 to Rs. 400. It is recommended to have some Nepali currency on hand to cover the cost of this service.
  • WiFi and reception: While on the Mera Peak Climbing Adventure, wifi is provided at all teahouses except for the climbing areas. If you wish to use a local SIM card with data, you can do so in locations with good reception, except for certain places. However, if you prefer to use wifi, there is a fee of Rs. 200 to Rs. 300 per teahouse. Please note that internet service may not be accessible during unfavorable weather conditions.

  • Laundry Service: When embarking on a lengthy journey, utilizing the laundry service can be an excellent way to reduce the number of belongings you have to pack. In areas with mountains, there are laundry services offered at a reasonable cost, but you also have the choice to wash your clothes yourself. To do this, make sure to bring washing powder or soap and clean your daily-use items. Afterward, hang them near a wood fire or on the balcony of the tea house, utilizing the wind to ensure they dry quickly overnight.

  • Charging Facility: During the Mera Peak Climbing Expedition, you will have access to a charging facility for your electronic devices. The hydroelectricity service extends up to Khare, ensuring the availability of essential amenities. Additionally, each tea house is fitted with multiple outlets for your convenience. To prepare for unforeseen circumstances like inclement weather or power failures, it is advisable to bring a power bank. Please keep in mind that there may be a small fee ranging from Rs. 100 to Rs. 300.

Tipping Culture:

Tipping is a common practice in the tourism industry in Nepal. When utilizing airport transportation services, it is customary to leave a tip for the driver. Similarly, when dining for lunch or dinner, it is expected to show appreciation by leaving a tip for the staff. This practice also applies to trekking guides, tour guides, climbing guides, and porters. The amount of the tip is discretionary and should reflect your satisfaction with the service received.

Farewell 

On behalf of the  Himalayan Trekking Path Company, we are delighted to invite you to a farewell dinner in honor of your upcoming departure. This special occasion will also serve as an opportunity for us to present you with an appreciation certificate and engage in a conversation about your trip, allowing us to gather your valuable suggestions and reviews.
