Himalayas is a dream for many climbers. With world's most
of high mountains and more than 1300 snow capped peaks,
Nepal is justifiably the most popular destination for mountaineering
expeditions. After the first ascent on Everest in 1953,
people knew more about amazing climbing opportunities in
Nepal.
In 1978 the Nepal Mountaineering
Association designated a number of peaks throughout Nepal
as 'trekking peaks', which could be attempted with a minimum
of bureaucracy or formality, and this has allowed the 'dream'
of a Himalayan ascent to be realised for many people. To
stand on top of a Himalayan peak, and feel the sense of
achievement of having scaled a mountain much bigger than
anything in the Alps is the 'ultimate dream' for many trekkers,
and indeed climbers.
The peaks we are talking
about are not Everest , Cho Oyu or the Manaslu, but peaks
with lower height and easier climbing.Often these peaks
are referred as "trekking peaks of Nepal" by some
western writers as most of them can be combined to your
trek to Everest , Annapurna or Langtang region. However
"trekking peaks of Nepal" is a misguiding and
romantic phrase. Almost all these peaks are higher than
the highest mountains in Europe, US or Africa. Some of them
do require technical climbing skill and only a professional
climbers should attempt. However some others can be climbed
by first timers with good fitness and basic climbing skills.
A more appropriate title, however, would be non-expedition
peaks as none can be 'trekked up', and some present serious
mountaineering challenges. We detail two of the most popular
of these peaks - the highest, Mera Peak, and one of the
most stunning, Island Peak. These trips are ideal for those
wishing to combine a trek with an ascent of an accessible
Himalayan summit.
