Mera Peak Climbing

Particularly for individuals who have been injured, taking a private flight to and from Mera Peak is rather safe. Our helicopter pilots are skilled and accustomed to operating it in such challenging circumstances. They are prepared to fly the trekkers back to the valley safely in any severe weather conditions.

Even though Mera Peak has a few glaciers and icy slopes, it can be difficult for beginners to climb. The summit will be quite challenging for those who have never trekked before, especially given the rocky pathways and snowy ridge.

During the Mera Peak helicopter rescue, pilots soar over 5,000 meters to protect climbers. To avoid causing passengers' severe mountain sickness and aggravating the issue, the aircraft is not designed to fly at high altitudes.

The lifetime deposit policy that Nepal Horizon Treks offers gives you the freedom to transfer your money to anyone or any other trip. Certain cancellation fees apply if you desire to reschedule your reserved trips. For further information, please visit our booking terms and conditions.

\It is possible to go privately or alone, although it is slightly more expensive than joining a group on a certain date. For a risk-free climbing experience, we strongly advise using a reliable guide service.

The tea houses in the majority of the communities along the Mera Peak path will offer internet access. You must buy rechargeable internet cards. There will be very slow internet. Nepalese SIM cards (NCEL or NTC) are also available, but their coverage is constrained. Additionally, in case of an emergency, our climbing guide will also have a satellite phone with him.

Porter allows for a maximum of about 25 KG in luggage. We will supply one porter for each pair of hikers. Porters are those employees who not only carry your luggage but also uplift your spirits, and they may put in extra effort to get you to your destination out of love and kindness for you. The weight limit for Lukla flights is 10 KG. Excess fees apply for taking additional baggage.

Autumn season 
This season is referred to as the most favourable and comfortable season for Mera Peak Climbing. Because it's the most secure, thrilling, and alluring season to engage in any kind of adventure activity in Nepal. When September, October, and November roll around on the calendar, autumn begins to permeate Nepal's surroundings.

After the monsoon season has passed, autumn officially begins in September. Early in September, there will be some remnants of the monsoon clouds in the sky, which will provide brief downpours. However, once autumn sets in around the middle of September, the weather and environment become more stable, with no precipitation or snowfall, and the temperature rises.

Through October and November, this shift continues. The lower Khumbu region (located below 4000m) experiences daily highs of roughly 12°C and nighttime lows of 6 to 8°C. However, the upper elevations of the Khumbu region, particularly those close to Mear Peak, can expect minus degrees.

Spring season 
During the spring season, both the weather and the temperature—which is warm enough for climbing—remain constant. Additionally, the vista is surrounded by lush foliage and blooming flowers. Nepal experiences a continuous spring from March through May. One who plans to climb the Mera Peak during the spring will profit greatly now that winter is over. The lower Khumbu region's average daytime temperature is around 10 °C. And as the sun sets, the temperature begins to fall, dropping to as low as -4°C in the morning and at night. However, the temperature will decrease as you go, and you must hike up to the summit of Mera Peak from its base camp in temperatures as low as -30°C. The springtime warmth may be tolerated with the proper equipment and attire. 

Furthermore, there is no concern about rain or snowfall because the weather is completely steady. Instead, springtime days are bright with clear skies and the sun streaming above, which makes climbing simpler. Additionally, one will be able to take in the unobstructed views of mountains and landscapes while hiking Mera Peak in the spring. Don't miss seeing Mount Everest, Mount Lhotse, and Mount Cho Oyu in the spring when they have completely distinct appearances.

Monsoon season 
The rainy and monsoon season is also known as the summer season. In June, July, and August of this season, Nepal's skies are covered in a lot of rain clouds. When rainfall is excessively common, these are the wettest months of the year. Trails get muddy and snowy in higher areas during this season. Even though this season is not the best for climbing Mera Peak, some climbers have nonetheless tried their luck.

Even though it rains throughout the monsoon season, it is warm before the rain starts. For instance, the midday temperature on Mera Peak's hiking paths is often around 15°C. As you climb higher and higher, the temperature rises, and vice versa. But as soon as it starts to rain, the temperature drops substantially in the higher elevations. It is possible to observe the effects of rain in the Khumbu region since the rain clears the air of dust. After the rain, the skies and mountain views are at their best. This, sadly, is the only enjoyable aspect of ascending Mera Peak during the 

monsoon. Making the decision to attempt Mera Peak during the monsoon season is dangerous and may result in failure. But if you are determined to undertake it during the monsoon, choose either late August or early June. Less rain will fall during those periods because the monsoon clouds have either not yet arrived or have only partially left.

 Winter season 
The majority of the world stays bundled up during the winter. But a daring and motivated climber will never use this as an excuse. Some climbers prefer to climb Mera Peak in the winter, which is the driest and coldest season of the year. The coldest month in Nepal is December, and it lasts through January and February.

December's arrival causes a noticeable dip in Nepal's temperature, especially in its higher altitudes. During the coldest parts of the winter, primarily in January, when temperatures are at their highest, it can drop below -20°C. In the upper elevations, such as the base camp and summit of Mera Peak, the temperature is bone-chilling at roughly -30°C. Additionally, you should prepare for significant snowfall in the upper areas throughout the winter months. The fact that winter is the driest season of all with virtually no rainfall is one factor that makes it better, though. The mountain views are also easily watchable, and the trails are not as slick as 

they are during the monsoon. Make sure you keep an adequate eye on the mountains because time does fly.

Before Performing Meka climbing plese read the safety guidelines and travel tips below, which must be strictly observed at all times. Please keep in mind that making fun of pilots or making inappropriate motions in the helicopter tour of Mera Climb might result in significant consequences. The following are the safety guidelines:

Pay close attention to the caption during the briefing session. He or she will clarify where and when you enter and leave the aircraft, as well as whether or not you are allowed to wander around. Enter the helicopter once the captain has given the signal, and enter in the manner described during the training. Approaching a helicopter from behind is never a good idea. All of your items, such as hats and sunglasses, should be secured. Do not pursue an item that has been blown away.

Smoking is prohibited within 50 feet of the aircraft.

 Only get out of the helicopter after the captain says it's safe.

 Recognize the safety standards and follow the instructions, and you should enjoy a safe flight filled with excitement and fun. Inside the plane, act appropriately and encourage your fellow passengers to do the same.

Please get in touch with us at info@nepalhorizontreks.com if you have any questions about the safety procedures for an Everest helicopter tour.

All our trips are available on both a fixed departure and a private group basis. Please check the Fixed Departures Dates for more information on departure dates, availability, and prices below if you are looking for a group to join Mera Climbing. All our fixed departures are 100% guaranteed and are designed by our Travel Experts. Or, if you are planning to do it alone or with your friends, family, and colleagues, please fill out this customized trip and we will offer you the best time, cost, and arrangements based on your request.

However, we do advise that you start a good fitness regimen at least six weeks before your trip, one that strengthens both your general stamina and particular leg muscle groups. The greatest advice is to venture out into the hills as frequently as you can because there is no better way to prepare for this kind of excursion than by hiking with a rucksack. This is a nice weight to work with because you probably carry around 10 kilos in your day bag.

 If you plan to work out at the gym, focus on the step machines that target the thighs and calves. Aim to raise your heart rate to 50% of your resting level. Swimming is a good cardiovascular workout, but for it to be effective, it must be combined with other forms of exercise. For a trip like this, exercise classes like Body Pump, Pilates, and Aerobics are all fantastic options, especially those that focus on core strength, balance, and stability.

You will be climbing stairs on difficult terrain as part of the Mera Peak Climb. You'll be traversing glaciers while donning heavier mountaineering boots and crampons. Too little oxygen is present. As a result, you should take these factors into account while training. You will hike for 4 to 8 hours each day while ascending Mera Peak. You can find yourself walking 14 hours every day. When you are training, push yourself to the limit and be ready. If you're not used to hiking, start out easy with day hikes. Make sure to build up to weeklong hikes gradually. Additionally, take some multi-week walks. Start with a 2 to 3 hour walk and gradually increase it to 6 to 8 hours.

Your preparation for the climb of Mera Peak should include a healthy diet. Maintaining a healthy diet helps you stay physically fit. Protein, vitamins, minerals, and carbohydrates should all be consumed in the right amounts as part of a healthy diet. It's important to stay hydrated as well. Your body will lose water during high altitude hikes and climbs like the Mera Peak Climb because of the heat produced. Therefore, keeping a good water intake and a balanced diet is essential for a successful hike. You should consume roughly 4 liters of water every day while on the trek. It's also a fantastic idea to maintain a healthy diet and stay hydrated to avoid altitude sickness.

 Never underrate a trip at a high altitude. Prepare your body and mind for a fantastic and successful adventure. A hard trip is required to climb Mera Peak. On the trails, you could become wet, fatigued, muddy, or tired. To keep pushing forward, you will need a positive outlook and mental toughness. Your mental endurance will be significantly improved by physical exercise. Try to continue moving forward during your physical activities even after you have reached your breaking point. This is one method of increasing mental endurance. It demonstrates that if you put your mind to something, you can accomplish more. Having a fantastic team of support personnel and trekking companions is also a tremendous motivator.

Lukla, which has a decent hospital and an airstrip for evacuating injured people, is not far from Mera Peak. Some parts of the walk into Mera can be reached by helicopter, although this is entirely dependant on visibility and the surrounding conditions. In the event of an emergency, the team itself, the guide, porters, and anybody else around will be responsible for transferring a casualty. The victim will need to be moved first to the closest safe location and then to a location where an evacuation can take place. It's crucial to recognize that there is a need for self-sufficiency and self-management in the situation because bad weather is the primary factor that delays helicopter aid. 

 Mera Peak, one of Nepal's most well-liked climbing peaks, has enticing scenery, including towering hills and valleys. There are beautiful views of limitless snow-capped mountains, jagged cliffs, and sheer glaciers up there. Trails that wind over hills covered with forest and down ice slopes are thrilling, but also terrifying. Many hikers find it challenging to navigate the difficult pathways that are covered in rocks and pebbles. Even worse, the incline of the trail prevents the trekkers from taking even a little break.

 For mountaineers who have been battling breathing issues or altitude sickness, Mera Peak Helicopter Rescue is a true savior. As a result of the peak's exceptionally low air pressure, hikers experience weariness, insomnia, and headaches. Pilots give emergency assistance and rescue trekkers aboard aircraft based on their health conditions. These skilled aviators make sure the hiker returns home safely and without suffering any injuries.

The Permit for Mera Climbing depends on the route you choose for mera climbing. In order to preserve this area's distinctive wildlife, the government of Nepal established climbing licenses for Mera Peak. The gorgeous surroundings are also protected thanks to these licenses. Here we briefly discussed the permits and their importance. 

Local area permit

You need to get a local area permit to enter the Khumbu zone in order to climb Mera Peak through the Everest Base Camp. This permission is available upon arrival in Lukla. For hassle-free climbing, the trekking company you are traveling with will get this permit for you. The cost of a local area permit is about NPR 2000. (approx. USD 20).

Sagarmatha national park entry permit 

Sagarmatha National Park is situated in a remote area, making access difficult. The 33 km away Tenzing-Hillary Airport in Lukla is the closest air connection. Flying to Kathmandu and then taking a quick flight to Lukla (25 minutes) is the best and simplest option. One may hike up to the national park from Lukla. Although the trail is rough and steep, it is very thrilling. If you are considering a trip to the Khumbu region of Nepal to explore Mount Everest, further information about the Sagarmatha National Park may be useful to you. Sagarmatha National Park permits are a necessity.

Obtaining a permit with official entry authority is necessary to enter Sagarmatha National Park. A person is not legally permitted to visit or even have a view of a national park without a permit. Below is the entry cost for national parks. The Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation is located in the NTB building, Bhrikuti Mandap in Kathmandu, and the Sagarmatha National Park Office is located in Manjo village, on the route to the Everest base camp. Both locations are available to issue national park permits. Overseas visitors must pay NRs 3,390 per person, per admission. Similarly, the SAARC entry cost is 1,695 per person, per entry. 

Makalu Barun National Park Entry Permit
