Why Choose Mera Peak Climbing?

Mera Peak is often called the “training ground for future expeditions”, as it is ideal for trekkers looking to step into the world of alpine climbing. While not highly technical, the climb requires the use of crampons, an ice axe, a harness, and ropes. You will also need to manage long days at high altitude, especially on summit day, which involves 8–10 hours of climbing and descending.

The reward is immense: from the summit of Mera Peak, you will see five of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks, Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu, and Kanchenjunga, a view that very few places in the Himalayas can offer.

Mera Peak Height

The Mera Peak height is 6,461 meters (21,190 ft) for Mera Central, which is the most commonly climbed summit. There are also two other summits:

Mera North (6,476m) – slightly higher, but less frequently climbed
Mera South (6,065m) – a lower summit not usually included in standard itineraries

Climbers attempting Mera Central will stand higher than Everest Base Camp (5,364m) and higher than the summit of Kilimanjaro (5,895m). It is a true Himalayan achievement for trekkers with limited technical climbing experience.
