Mera peak at 6,470 meters’ is classified as a trekking peak in Nepal. First scaled by Col. Jimmy Roberts and Sen Tenzing was on May 20, 1953. Mera peak trekking was first discovered extensively by British expeditions in the early 1950 before and after the ascent of Everest. The members of those teams included Edmund Hillary, Eric Shipton and George Lowe.

For experienced climbers, it is not a technical ascent, the main hurdle being proper acclimatization to the high altitude. Nowadays, Mera Peak climb is a very popular destination for beginners. The standard route from the north involves high altitude glacier walking. The ease of reaching this elevation may be its biggest danger, but good weather and snow conditions are, of course, necessary for safety and success. The west and south faces of the peak offer more difficult, technical routes.

The view from the Mera summit is one of the finest in the Himalaya with five 8,000 m peaks visible; Mount Everest, Lhotse, Cho Oyu, Makalu, and Kangchenjunga, as well as other Khumbu Himalayan peaks linked below.
