Mera Peak (6476m) is the highest trekking peak in Nepal, with its 3 summits, Mera North, Mera South, and Mera Central. It is one of the most popular and most climbed peaks which lies in the Sagarmatha region, Mahalangur range. Tenzing Norgay Sherpa and Sir Edmund Percival Hillary, who were the first climbers of Mount Everest, also started the trend of climbing the Mera Peak before and after the Everest ascent.
Since then, Mera Peak has always been people’s favorite. The trail to Mera Peak passes through unique Sherpa settlements, lush forests, suspension bridges, traditional Gompas, monasteries, and many more. However, an awe-inspiring view of Mt Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu, and Cho-Oyu from its summit is one of the finest attractions of this climb.
