> Enjoy the panoramic view from Mera Peak summit
> Get to meet the locals and their culture
> Spot rare wildlife and birds

Mera Peak is the tallest trekking peak in Nepal, standing tall at 6,476m. The trek, that's feasible for most experienced trekkers, leads you across the remote Makalu Barun National Park. You have the chance to spot a variety of rare birds and mammals along the way. The view from the Mera Peak summit is literally the highlight of this non-technical climb above 6000m.

It's an authentic experience, passing several settlements of the native mountain people, enchanting forests and immerse in the local culture and lifestyle. We will trek through the mystical Hinku which once again will offer us beautiful and splendid views on the mountains and hills. This climb is the most suitable for trekkers and climbers who seek a proper adventure.

Note: Climbing a trekking peak higher than 6000 meter is never easy. You need to be very fit and in the right state of mind to succeed.
