About Mera Peak Climbing with Helicopter Return Trek

If you are looking for a challenging and rewarding adventure, Mera Peak Climbing with Helicopter Return is the perfect trip for you.

Mera Peak Climbing with Helicopter Return is a great way to experience the magnificence of the Himalayas and summit a challenging peak. The climb is not technically difficult, but it requires good fitness and some basic mountaineering skills. However, it is not a technical climb and can be completed by anyone reasonably fit.

Our amazing Mera Peak Climbing with Helicopter Return trip begins in Lukla, Nepal, and ascends through the Hinku valley to Khare (5045m). Afterward, we traverse several Sherpa settlements, namely Paiya (2730m), Ramailo Danda (3276m), Chhatra Khola (3122m), Kothe (3600m), Thangnak (4356m), and finally Khare (the last settlement before moving towards our major objective).

Leaving Khare, we ascend to the summit through a series of fixed ropes. The summit of Mera Peak is at an altitude of 6,476 meters. It offers panoramic views of some of the world's most famous mountains: Mt. Everest 8,848 m (29,031 ft.), Mt. Kanchenjunga 8,586 m (28,169 ft.), Mt. Lhotse 8,516 m (27,940 ft.), Mt. Makalu 8,481 m ( 27,825 ft.) and Mt. Cho Oyu 8,188 m (26,864 ft.).
