Mera peak (6654m/21831ft NMA official height) officially the highest of Nepal’s permitted trekking peaks rises to the south of Everest and dominates the watershed between the heavily wooded valleys of the Hinku and Hongu Drangkas. The first ascent on Mera was made in May 1953 and the route taken then, has now become the standard route. There are many routes to Mera peak, none of them easy. Some of the route traverses through difficult passes, and the arduous climb then becomes a true mountaineering experience. The end however, is worth all the effort, as Mera is definitely on of the finest viewpoints in Nepal.

The panoramic view here takes in Chamlang, Kanchanjunga, Makalu and Baruntse in the east and the peak of Choyu, Amadablam and Kang Thega to the west. To the north one can glimpse Everest over the crumpled sedimentary rock bands that make up the massive unclimed south face of Lhotse and the Nuptse/Lhotse ridge. Weather conditions permitting, it is possible for a very experienced and able team to reach the summit from the base camp and return to the same day. It is also possible for very skilled skiers to “ski” to the summit ridge, enjoy the breath-taking views and return the same day.
