Essential Information

Guide and porter for the trek:

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.

FAQs

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.
