Mount Mera Peak, Amphu Lapcha, and Island Peak in Khumbu: These two trekking peaks and high remote pass is one of the most popular among Nepal’s trekking peaks and passes in Nepal. Mera Peak: Mount Mera Peak is a beautiful trekking peak in the Everest and Makalu borderline of Nepal standing at an altitude of 6,476m (21,247 ft). A mountain in the Mahalangur section, Barun sub-section of the Himalaya, and administratively in Nepal's Sagarmatha Zone, Solukhumbu District. At 6,476 meters it is classified as a trekking peak. It contains three main summits: Mera North, 6,476 Mera Central, 6,461m, and Mera South, 6,065 as well as breathtaking views of Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Kanchenjunga and many other great summits of 6-7000m ranging mountains. Amphu Lapcha La Pass: One of the most beautiful, technically difficult and challenging trekking Himalayas passes between Everest and Hunkhu region, Situated on the top of upper Hunku valley. The crossing of the pass requires the use of technical climbing equipment and trekkers must be skilled in the use of this and be prepared. The trail will follow crossing Amphu Lapcha down to Everest's classic route to Chukung but you’ll head towards Island Peak BC for another beautiful ascent. Island (Imja Tse) Peak: This is a mountain in Sagarmatha National Park of the Himalayas of eastern Nepal. The peak was named Island Peak in 1953 by members of the British Mount Everest expedition because it appears as an island in a sea of ice when viewed from Dingboche. It is one of the most common trekking peaks in Nepal. Climbing this peak is not very difficult, especially after Mera and Amphu Lapcha. But technical enough to climb. Basic techniques and information of mountaineering (such as using crampons on boots, climbing ropes, ice axes, harnesses, carabiners, Descender devices, etc ) is required to plan this trip. So you should have basic knowledge about this. After the joyful climb, you will get into the sherpas towns to taste the beers and fresh foods, and hot showers;). Condition: Technically, Mera Peak is a non-technical peak that anyone can climb if they have some knowledge of previous climbing. Although it’s easy, you must have your own climbing gear that you are used to before, especially alpine or plastic boots, crampons, and harnesses which should fit you.
