As you ascend through dense rhododendron forests, you'll delve deep into the Hinku Valley, home to a variety of wildlife. While these creatures may not appear on the human trails, a stroke of luck might lead to a sighting.

Mera Peak climbing 2024/2025 strategy

Our Mera Peak climbing is 21 days long. You will get one full day in Kathmandu before flying to Lukla to prepare for the expedition. Once you hit the trail, our guide, porter, and supporting crew will be there with you all the time, ensuring your safety and providing the necessary support for a successful climb.

Spend two acclimatization days before hiking to Mera La (the base camp) and the Mera High Camp at 5,780 meters (18,958 ft). During the rest days, you may do some climbing rotations. The team leader will arrange a pre-climbing training as well.

To reach the high camp, you will cross the Mera La Pass at 5,200 m (17,060 ft) and also spend a night here. The high camp is situated behind a large vertical rock. It is a rock shelf, the perfect place to spend a night before pushing towards the Mera summit.

The summit day starts around between 12:00 AM to 1:00 AM. You will start climbing at dawn to reach the summit on time before the late morning winds make climbing impossible. Follow the northern snow slope and climb using fixed ropes set by your crew to the summit of Mera Peak.

Enjoy the view from the top and follow the same route to Mera High Camp. Collect your things and descend to Khare to spend the night. The rest of the team will wait at Khare for you with a celebratory drink. From Khare, you will descend three days to reach Lukla and fly back to Kathmandu.

Essential Information

Mera Peak climbing difficulty

Mera Peak's difficulty grade is alpine PD. So, this peak is physically very demanding but not technically challenging. This factor makes Mera Peak approachable for beginner climbers. Before climbing the peak, you will spend a few days trekking, following steep, rugged trails.

Along with offbeat terrain, you will also come across varying altitudes. The upper part of the region has kharkas (meadows/pastures). You will cross the steep moraines of Dig Glacier to Dig Kharka. Khare is the last settlement before you will start climbing.

The base camp will be Mera La. From here, you will climb to the top of Mera Peak. Even though Mera Peak is higher than Island Peak and Lobuche Peak, climbing it is much more manageable. The slopes do not exceed 30 degrees steepness, and the climbing route will be fixed with ropes for extra precaution.

To avoid altitude sickness, we have added two acclimatization days to our Mera Peak climbing itinerary. Similarly, gradual trekking will allow ample time to adjust to the elevation and environment. Altitude sickness is a huge risk during the Mera Peak climbing, so you have to be extra careful.

Do not ignore any sign of discomfort. If you get a headache, vomiting, difficulty in breathing, dizziness, insomnia, nausea, etc., inform your guide. These could be the early signs of altitude sickness. We will do our best to avoid altitude sickness.

However, if you get sick, our first goal will be to cure the symptoms and then only ascend further. We have designed our Mera Peak climbing itinerary to provide optimum acclimatization opportunities to our climbers. So, do not worry and follow our team leader's guidance.

Below are a few things that participants should follow during the journey to avoid altitude sickness:

  • Have a gradual pace while trekking and climbing. Do not overexert yourself.
  • Listen to your body and share any discomfort with your guide.
  • Keep yourself hydrated, and do not consume alcohol during climbing. Do not smoke.
  • Take plenty of rest and have nutritious meals.

What is the best time to do the Mera Peak climbing?

To climb a peak in the Himalayas, you need stable weather. Spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) have the most stable weather. So, the majority of climbing expeditions are done in these seasons. In other seasons, the weather fluctuates a lot, and the risk of landslides and avalanches is high.

The upcoming season for Mera Peak climbing in 2024 is autumn. The bookings are open. Likewise, the next season will be 2025 spring and autumn. We are also taking pre-booking for 2025.

How is accommodation during the Mera Peak climbing?

Up to Khare, you will spend nights in tea houses or lodges. These are simple but cozy accommodations along the Mera Peak trail. The rooms are twin-shared, and single rooms cost extra money. You will get both Western-style and squat towels. Make your mind to use both.

The facilities in the accommodations are basic. They usually charge a few bucks for a hot shower, charging, and WiFi. Carry ample Nepali cash with you for these personal expenses, as our package cost does not cover them. A solar charger or power bank will be convenient. Likewise, do not expect a good network or WiFi, especially above 2,500 meters.

At Mera La (base camp) and Mera High Camp, you will sleep in tents. We use sturdy alpine tents. You do not have to buy tents; we provide them. Our team will set up all the tents and cook meals for you during camping. We provide all the camping essentials. Climbers get separate sleeping tents and shared dining and washroom tents.

Meals are given as per the tea houses/lodges' menu. You will get dal bhat, fried rice, stew, curries, thukpa, thenduk, chapati, dhido, porridge, soups, etc. These are some common items on the menu. Apart from these, you will also get pasta, French fries, pizza, burgers, etc, in some villages.

Drinking water is readily available. Use water purification tablets for more safety. During climbing, our staff will cook delicious and nutritious meals for you.
