24 Days

Mar, Apr, May

Description

At 6654 m, Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in Nepal. It’s also a very popular trail because of the outstanding views of the Himalaya giants you can get from its summit.

This is a 24-day trip designed for you to experience a typical expedition, including guides, cook and porters. I strongly recommend it for climbers who are planning to reach higher peaks in Himalaya in the future. Even though Mera Peak is considered an easy trekking peak, the activity demands a hard physical effort due to its altitude.

One of the highlights of this adventure is the chance to admire some of the highest mountains in Himalaya: from the summit of Mera Peak you’ll be able to see Kanchenjunga, Chamlang, Makalu and Baruntse in the east, and Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse on the north.

Another exciting moment of the trip is crossing Amphu Laptsa, a pass at 5845m. It is important to mention that this involves basic mountaineering techniques like glacier travels and rappelling, what makes it a technical challenge.

Finally, for the last part of our trek, I will guide you through the wild and almost inhabited region of Hunku Valley.

About the guide

Phurba

Mountain Guide

I'm a certified NNMGA / UIAGM / IFMGA mountain guide from Nepal. I found my passion for the outdoors and climbing early in life when I was first contracted as a trekking guide for a Japanese team to Yala peak (5520m). Since then I have worked with many adventure tourism agencies and successfully summited Mt. Everest, Mt. Cho-Oyu, Mt. Ama Dablam , Mt. Baruntse and many other peaks in Nepal. I'm fluent in German and English which allowed me to guide in the Alps several times. I have a right temperament, I'm dedicated and I have a friendly approach to lead and help the climbing teams accomplish their goals.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
