Overview

Mera Peak (6,476 m) is Nepal's highest "trekking peak" and one of the great expedition summits open to motivated climbers. From the summit you can see five 8,000-metre giants — Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu and Kanchenjunga — a panorama unmatched anywhere else on earth. The expedition climbs through the wild and beautiful Hinku valley, far from the crowds, before tackling the long glacier ascent to the summit. Less technical than Island Peak but at significantly higher altitude.
