Early morning transfers to the airport to fly to Lukla (2840m). This 30-minute flight provides a magnificent entry to the trek. It highlights the snowline of the Himalayan Range in the north and the rugged landing at the Lukla airport, which is said to be one of the most spectacular flights in the world.

Upon arrival at Tenzing-Hillary Airport, Lukla, meet the trekking support team, assistant guide and porters. Before commencing the trek, stop at a nearby lodge for hot tea/coffee and light snacks. Then start to trek to Paiya for about 5 hours. The trail descends from Lukla Airport which passes through the forested areas (rhododendron, juniper, pine) and reaches Surke. From Surke, continue to walk towards the south which leads to Chutok La Pass (2,775m). From there, it’s a gradual walk to Paiya.

Leaving Paiya, start to walk downhill up to the stream and cross the small wooden bridge. Then the trail ascends to Kari-La Pass (2,800 m) after crossing the bridge of Paiya Khola. The top of Kari–La pass offers a beautiful view of Numbur Peak and Green Hills. Along the trail, we pass through dense rhododendrons and bamboo forests on a narrow mountain trail. Later, we will quickly stop to view the magnificent Dudh Koshi Valley and continue our trek to Panggom Village.

From Panggom, we will ascend to the top of the hill, cross the Narkang (Panggom La Pass, 3200m) and descend to Sibuje where we will take a break for tea coffee or Lunch. Then we continue our trek towards Ningsow through the narrow trail.

The trail is well-constructed and paved with stone which passes through dense forest and reaches Ningsow where we will find only one teahouse lodge. This place is a temporary cattle grazing area. From Ningsow, we will climb the hill and reach Ramailo Danda, which has an open area with a pleasant view.

Leaving Ramailo Danda, the trail passes through dense forest and crosses several streams. After several ascending and descending along the narrow beautiful trail, we will enter Makalu National Park and follow the Pasang Lhamu Trail which leads to Chhatra Khola. This section is the prime habitat of the Red Panda. There is a high opportunity to witness the diverse flora and fauna like Wild Boar, Ghoral, Himalayan Black Bear, Himalayan Marmot, and many wild animals.

On this day, we will meet the main route and reach the junction of all routes, Kothe. Leaving Chhatra Khola, ascend through the rhododendron, birch forest and walk above the Hinku valley and walk down next to the Majang River and reach Thaktok. Further downhill, we will reach the bank of Hinku Khola and following the river bank, we will reach Kothe.

After breakfast, the trail gradually ascends through the open meadows following the river banks. As we start to walk to the higher altitude, we will cross the tree line zone and the area opens wider Himalayan Vistas of Kharkas and grazing meadows of the Yak. After we reach Godishung, we will have lunch and enjoy the magnificent views of peaks like Charpati Himal, Kusum Kanguru, Thamserku and Mera Peak. Then continue to walk towards Thangnak. En route, we will witness the 200-year-old Buddhist Shrine, Lungsumba Gompa.

As per the study on high altitude sickness, it has been found that most people suffer or show signs of Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) from an altitude of 14,000 ft. Thus it is highly recommended to have a rest day to acclimatize at this altitude before starting an ascent. On this day, we will hike to the nearby hill in front of Kusum Kanguru Peak.

With the fullest acclimatization in higher altitudes, we will start to walk on a rocky trail that further ascends through the glacier. En route, we will get a pleasant view of Sabai Tsho Glacier Lake. With the stunning view of Charpate Himal, Hinku Glacier, Mera Peak, and Kyeshar Glacier, we will be climbing towards Khare, the last settlement area. At Khare, we will find several teahouse lodges with climbing equipment. We will enjoy the view of the north view of Mera Peak and the glacier.

The morning is free for hiking to a nearby hill to acclimatize in the high-altitude environment. In the afternoon, spend the entire day checking the climbing gear and equipment once again and engage in pre-climbing training sessions organized by Expert Nepalese Climbers. You will get training in mountaineering skills like belaying, rappelling, making knots, using harnesses and other climbing equipment that will be useful before and after the summit of Mera Peak.

In the evening, there will be a meeting about the briefing of routes, tips and practical knowledge, meal plans, and other useful information.

Now the adventure begins from here. With the mission of scaling Mera Peak, we will start ascending the steep boulder path of the mountain towards Mera La (5,400m) and walk towards Mera Glacier. After crossing Mera La, we will follow the main trail and reach Mera High Camp. We don’t need to use the mountaineering equipment as there are no technical routes up to High Camp.

Mera High Camo is well facilitated with tented camps, kitchens, toilets, and expedition crew members. It will be more cold, harsh alpine weather. After we reach high camp, we will be welcomed with warm drinks and soups. We will take a rest early as we need to start walking at midnight.

Early in the midnight, start to the summit push of the Mera Peak. It’s a long journey on the mountain slopes secured by the guide rope with the Nepalese Climbing Guide. Before we reach the summit, we may need to use jumar on the fixed rope as it depends on the snow level. In the morning, we will reach the summit and click the pictures. From the top, we will get a stunning view of the massif range of the Himalayas including 5 of the world’s 8000er peaks; Mt. Everest (8,848.86m), Mt. Kanchenjunga (8,586m), Mt. Lhotse (8,516m), Mt. Makalu (8,463m), Mt. Choyu (8,201m) and other snow-capped mountains such as Baruntse, Chamling, Peak 06, Tent Peak, Kyashar, Amadablam, and many other peaks.
