Trek to Mera Peak is an adventure of a lifetime that begins with a flight to Lukla. Lukla airport is a well-paved and exciting airport in the world. Thus, even though the flight is short, it can be incredibly nerve-wracking. Once you have landed in Lukla, you will begin your ascend slowly eastward. This trek will take you through the beautiful Hinku Valley, which remains isolated and almost inhabited. A stunning valley, Hinku is filled with huge moraines, glacial lakes, and spectacular mountain views. The dense pine forest is another of its natural features. Walking through this forest is indeed an experience. After a few days of trekking through high and low valleys, you will cross Zatra La Pass after which you will reach Mera La Pass. This is where you will set your base camp for the climb to Mera Peak. For the purpose of gradual acclimatization, you will not climb to the Peak in a single day. The climb to Mera Peak thus may take two to three days after setting the base camp at Mera La Pass. You will follow the same path on your way back.
