be very unpredictable and can change within hours. Due to the complexity of
this situation, we add a day to the itinerary, as it can run the next day in
bad weather. However, Mera Peak climbing is not limited to mountains and
glaciers. The trip is full of different natural and cultural aspects of the
Everest region. You will pass through many Sherpa villages along the way to
discover and witness the unique lifestyle and heritage. You will also pass by
many monasteries and gumba, which are essential spiritual aspects for many
people residing in these regions. The richness of flora and fauna is also the
main attraction of this trekking in Nepal.

Essential Information

We provide you well a trained and
experienced trekking guide and porter for your trek. Our guide will help you in
every possible way to make your trips remarkable and unforgettable. When we
talk about the porter, we provide a porter for two hikers each. Carriers carry
20 kg of total luggage (10 kg for each hiker). We offer a guide for smaller
groups, and if the group size exceeds ten people, we will provide you with the
additional guide for your trip.
Trekking guide and another staff arrangement:
Climbing and staff management are some
of the essential parts of the expedition that determine success. Enjoy the
skill and memorable of the trip. A very experienced and courteous climbing
guide will make the expedition trip smooth and easy. All members of the
expedition team and the climbing director are carefully selected based on their
leadership skills and personal talent. To preserve local communities, we only
employ local people who have sufficient knowledge of the culture, ecosystem,
flora, fauna, geography, and history of your local region.
Acclimatization
The Mera peak climbing itinerary is planned
with a high profile of Acute Mountain Sickness. Increasing too rapidly at
higher altitudes leads to disease that is severe enough to cause death. As much higher altitude, the oxygen
levels less in the air. For example, at
an altitude of more than 5000 m, there is 50% less oxygen than at sea level.
Therefore, our bodies need many days to adapt to an environment with less
oxygen. During this trip, a separate day is provided for acclimatization.
Visiting Everest base camp and Kalapathar will also help you get used to the
altitude before heading out to Mera peak Climb.
Physical condition and experience requirements
The Mera Peak is not technical, but you
still need excellent resistance to reach it. Previous knowledge of climbing is
not required. However, some experience of using climbing equipment is always an
asset. There will also be pre-ascent training at Island Peak Base Camp
participants. The practice focuses mainly on the use of climbing equipment such
as ropes, ice axes, belts, and crampons.
On the summit day, you have to hike
10-12 hours. Therefore, we recommend that you prepare yourself by jogging or
walking daily for about three months before you travel. Understand that when
choosing the Island Peak trip, consider hiking many days at high altitude and
in remote areas. For your Mera peak climb to be successful, you need to have a
lot of willpower, the ability to tolerate adverse weather conditions, and
adequate fitness and endurance. Participants with existing diseases such as
heart, lung, and blood diseases must consult their doctor before starting their
trip. Also, let us know your conditions at the time of booking.
Travel insurance
Travel insurance for every itinerary of
our company is a prerequisite for booking a vacation. You must have at least
emergency and repatriation insurance, which must include the cost of mountain
rescue. Please read the general terms and conditions of your insurers
carefully. In particular, you should make sure that the following is covered:
1) Activity (i.e., tourism, trekking or mountaineering) 2) Maximum altitude
that can be reached on the trek 3) Helicopter evacuation in an emergency. You
should understand that you are ultimately responsible for all costs associated
with an eviction and return procedures and that it is your responsibility to
bear the costs of evacuations or medical treatment. You should be fully aware
of the effects of organizing your travel insurance and understand the
limitations and exclusions of your policy. Please note that in certain
circumstances, our company guide may initiate helicopter rescue in medical
emergencies without first asking your insurance company for approval.
Mera Peak is
the highest trekking peak in Nepal with a height of 6476 meters. The ascent to
Peak Mera is not a technically demanding summit. However, many things cause
difficulties and obstacles during the walk and the climb. Having some
mountaineering experience is a big bonus. During the final push of the ascent
of Mera Peak, you will have to use technical mountaineering equipment. You will
need to use crampons, harnesses, and ice axes. Many hikers first conquer these
peaks before climbing the mountains above 8,000 meters.

One Of Best Trip : Mera Peak Climbing
This was my
second trip to the Himalayas with Nepal Tour & Trekking Service P. Ltd.
after a successful trip to Island Peak. There are incredible views of the
entrance and exit and it was much less crowded than the way to the EBC. A bit
further up, although I thought that Mera was generally considered less
technical and therefore easier than Island Peak. Now I know better. Mera is a
much tougher undertaking than Island Peak on summit days and should not be
underestimated.
