Mera Peak

Experience adventure on a grand scale, with Nepal's highest trekking peak - Mera. Challenge yourself as you trek to 6,476 m and take in spectacular views as you follow glaciers, frosted rivers and rocky valleys. Along the way you'll learn the art of walking in crampons and using an ice pick and will put these new skills to work as you ascend to the summit. Although this is not a trek for the faint hearted, it does not require special mountaineering skills - you just need to be reasonably fit, have a sense of adventure and be ready for an awe-inspiring escapade.

Follow Dig Glacier, with stunning views of the north face of Mera, to Khare, where there is time to become familiarised with the trekking kit and get in some climbing practise.
