What are the popular trekking peaks to climb in the Everest Region of Nepal?

There are three popular trekking peaks to climb in the Everest region of Nepal. Besides Mera Peak (6476 m), Island Peak (6189 m) and Lobuche Peak (6119 m) are two other popular trekking peaks. Nepal Mountaineering Association has identified other trekking peaks inside the Everest region for climbers to climb, but these three are the most famous ones.

Which is the easiest peak to climb in Nepal? Do you know that Mera Peak is the tallest trekking peak in Nepal?

The easiest peak to climb in Nepal is the Mera Peak, even if it is the tallest trekking peak of Nepal. There are no technical climbing sections in the course of climbing Mera Peak. Climbers can easily climb the mountain with the help of a support rope attached to the climbing guide and with the use of crampons on their climbing shoes. Don’t underestimate the dangers of climbing the snowy mountain, even if it is considered an easy climbing trekking peak. The level of easiness or difficulty is determined in comparison to other peak climbing activities in Nepal.

Who climbed Mera Peak for the first time?

The team of Col. Roberts and Sen Tenzing climbed Mera Peak for the first time on 20th May 1953. Col. Roberts is the significant figure in establishing the proper trekking route to the Mera Peak Base Camp in 1965. Therefore, posthumously, he was awarded by the Nepal Government in 2005. Because of his efforts, the trekking route is getting lots of attention. Nowadays, the number of climbers inquiring about the peak has been increasing rapidly.

Mera Peak Climbing vs Island Peak Climbing vs Lobuche Peak Climbing

People often debate about the experience differences between Mera Peak Climbing, Lobuche Peak Climbing, and Island Peak Climbing. All these mountains are inside the Everest region of Nepal. However, Mera Peak is in the alternative region, and the Island/Lobuche Peaks are in the Upper Khumbu region. The purpose of climbing the mountain is to attain the wilderness adventure by conquering the towering snowy peaks. Climbers always aim to successfully reach the higher-altitude places and seek the challenging courses. In doing so, they need proper practices in the lower altitude peaks. Unlike peak climbing, the expedition trips of the mountains above 7000 m height require lots of mountaineering training as well as experiences. Therefore, climbers do the peak climbing activities before the expedition.

Island Peak Climbing and Lobuche Peak Climbing are perfect activities to prepare for the higher-level expeditions. The Mera Peak Climbing is not considered preparatory climbing for the expedition.

Mera Peak Trek

There is a lot of confusion about the term Mera Peak Trek or Mera Peak Climbing. Don’t get mistaken about these terms. Both these terms refer to the climbing of the peak. Trekkers have to do trekking up to the Mera Base Camp or up to Khare Village to start the actual climbing activity.
