Nepal
is known as Himalayan kindom country.Nepal has 1310 mountains
(the major portion of the Mountain range.) which are over
5500 meters (18,090 ft) to 8848m (29,028ft) above sea
level. This makes our country exceptionally popular for
mountaineers.Among the 18 peaks in Nepal Mera peak is
gathering the popularity from the trekkers for its beautiful
landscape. The trekking starts from Lukla and pass through
Sherpa village called Inkhu Valley which develops and
presents the offering of superb scenery, unforgettable
experience and the abundant wildlife including the so-called
Yeti legendry. Each year, more than 700 foreigners are
climbing the peak and the numbers of expedition is projected.
About 700 foreign visitors climb the 6654m. To achieve
the goal, the mountaineers need the skill and expedition
permit from the Nepal Mountaineering Association.
Mera Peak (6,654 m) is the highest permitted
trekking peak of Nepal. It stands to the south of Everest
and dominates the watershed between the heavily wooded
valleys of the Hinku and Hongu Drangkas.
J.O.M. Roberts and Sen Tenzing made the first successful
ascent of Mera Peak on 20 May 1953. The route they used
is still the standard route. There are many other routes
to the peak, but none of them are easy. Some of them require
crossing very high and difficult passes. This leads to
a true mountaineering experience. In the end, all efforts
and hard work is paid off with spectacular scenery as
Mera provides one of the finest viewpoints in Nepal.
Mera Peak offers a panoramic view of
Chamlang, Kangchenjunga, Makalu, and Baruntse in the east
and the peaks of Cho-Oyu, Ama Dablam and Kangtega to the
west. Everest can be viewed to the north over the massive
unclimbed south face of Lhotse and the Nuptse/Lhotse ridge.
Under favourable conditions, it is possible to climb the
peak and descend back on the same day.
