After breakfast, we'll travel to Siliguri early in the morning by jeep. Driving on the road is in good condition, but after that Siliguri is off-road. Dhulikhel, Bhakunde Besi, Okheldhunga, Pattale, and Salleri are all on the route that leads to Siliguri by bus, which takes 8 to 9 hours. We can observe Nepali tradition, culture, and mountains in this way. Salleri is the lower Solukhumbu and trekking route to Mera peak climbing.

Siliguri is a beautiful place in the highlands with a beautiful view of mountains, hills, and the local culture and tradition. After spending a night in Siliguri, the next morning, we have breakfast, and again we'll move to Jube by vehicle. The road to Jube is off-road, and it is going to take 5 to 6 hours by bus. Jube is a beautiful Shera village where you can visit the monastery and see Sherpa Culture there. This journey also offers amazing mountain views, local culture, and beautiful waterfalls.

Our first day of trekking is on the way to Mera Peak Climbing, so after breakfast, we'll be prepared to head to Pangom. It is around 8 kilometers long and its to around in 4-5 hours. This trek passes through various wildlife and plants. Amazingly, the first day of the trek begins with a stroll around the customs and culture of the area.

The first day of our trekking made us a bit tired. After having a delicious breakfast in the morning, we will start our trekking to Pangom La 3174m pass and down to Sibuje Village. This village is the last village on the Mera Peak Climbing trekking route. After the Lunch break, we will head to Nyuma, where a few tea houses available. In the native tongue, Nyuma is also referred to as Ramilo Dada. It takes 4-5 hours to walk the 7 kilometres to Nyuma Dada. This trip also provides us with stunning views of snow-capped mountains and various flora and fauna.

As Usual, After Breakfast trek starts at Chatraphok. In the beginning, we will climb to Ramilo Dada and gently trek goes with ups and down to Chatraphok. The trail goes through a dense forest, a small stream, and a suspension bridge. On this trail, you can see different types of vegetation, birds, and animals.

Early in the morning, when listening to the chirping of the birds, we wake up, and after eating breakfast, we leave the settlement and continue on our journey to Kothe. At the beginning trail goes steeply up and then gently up & down. We will get to Toktok which is through the Zatrala Pass trail from Lukla to Mera peak climbing. We will continue our trek to Kothe, there are many ups and downs until it reaches Kothe. This lovely settlement serves as the starting point for climbing Mera Peak, which rewards visitors with stunning views of the Himalayas.

The next morning after breakfast, the short trip from Kothe to Thagnak starts along the ridge of Inkhu Khola. Up until we reach Gondishung, the trek continues in the shadow of Mera Peak. There are a few villages located on the side of Inkhu Khola. After having a delicious meal, we continue our trek from Gondishung and pass an ancient gompa that is located at the base of a large rock. Here, people make a wish for a successful summit attempt before continuing their journey. There is also a map on the rock that shows the route of Mera Peak. After continuing, we traverse many landslip zones while walking upstream along a rocky trail. Nature provides a close-up view of Mera Peak and Kusum Kanguru from one ridge as we continue to ascend the trails. We continue your journey while taking in the scenery, steadily making your way uphill until you arrive in Thaknak.

After enjoying a comfortable stay in Thagnak, we will move again in the morning, which crosses the lateral moraine and leads to the Mera Glaciers. From there, it's a steep ascent to reach Khare, which makes walking a little bit challenging because of the high altitude. From Khare, we can take the breathtaking panorama of the Northern Face of Mera Peak. Khare also provides a variety of worthwhile treks for exploration and acclimatization.

To prevent high altitude sickness at higher elevations, acclimatization is necessary. So today, on our rest day, we will explore the Khare. Before moving on to higher camps, we will do a short hike to prevent altitude sickness. During our hike on the other side, our staff will prepare the essential stuff that we need for climbing.

After leaving Khare, we began our trek to Mera Peak High Camp; it's going to take around 6/7 hours from Khare. Our trail leads gradually up to the Mera Glacier. Before making a traverse along the glacier to reach Mera Peak Base Camp, we will ascend steeply to the glacier's top. Following the trail that ascends through Mera La Pass after leaving the base camp, we will continue hiking up the steep, frequently snow-covered trail towards Mera Peak High Camp. Our staff will rapidly set up the camps and perform any necessary examinations of our physical condition and climbing equipment once we get to the top camp. Amazing views of Everest, Makalu, Nuptse, Cho Oyu, Baruntse, Chamlang, and many more peaks can be seen from the high camp.

Today has been a long walk for all of us. We set out early in the morning, properly prepared and acclimatized, to reach the summit before the middle of the day. Because In the afternoon, strong winds may make it difficult to reach the summit. So at midnight, we will wake up, and after eating something hot, drinking hot tea or coffee, and taking some snacks and hot water, we’ll move towards the summit and ascend it to reach the summit. Slowly, while catching every single breath, we reach the summit, where we are greeted with breathtaking views of amazing eight thousand peaks like Nuptse Kanchenjunga, Cho Oyu, and Everest. After enjoying the movement on top for some time, we will trek down to Khare.

These extra days are only for those who cannot go to the summit as scheduled because of the weather. So, we can go to the summit on contingency day. Otherwise, we do not rest this day and continue our trek down. But if we don't use the contingency day, that day is not going to count on further trek days.

After achieving our goal of reaching the Mera Peak Summit, we will return to Khare and travel via Thangnak before continuing to Kothe. We will trek down slowly, leaving behind the alpine zone, and rocky terrain before reaching the dense subtropical forest, where we will again experience different fauna and flora until we reach Kothe.

Early in the morning, after having a delicious breakfast, we slowly move towards Tuli Kharka. Leaving Kothe, we walk uphill through a thick rhododendron forest that crosses the western portion of the Inkhu Khola till Taksing Ongma, and after that, we walk to Thuli Kharka. 6-7 hours From Tuli Kharka, we can see the south face, north face, and center face of Mera Peak in all their beauty.

The last day of our adventure is today. We will rise from Tuli Kharka to cross Zatrawala Pass and then descend from the pass's summit to return to Lukla. We shall commemorate the accomplishment of the Mera Peak Climb in the evening.

We will take an early morning scenic flight from Lukla back to Kathmandu. You will be transferred to the hotel after landing at the airport. You can either have a rest at the hotel or visit sites that weren’t possible on the second day of the trip. Enjoy your leisure time at Kathmandu.
