Most of the mountaineers does this trip via Zatrwa La Pass which is the quickest way to get to finish this trip. However, we trek into the mountain via a longer route, which provides better acclimatization. This also takes you off the beaten track and immerses the trekker into local culture along the way.We have designed our Mera peak itinerary in a professional manner with perfect acclimatization and contingency days.

Note:After ampha lapcha instead of island peak you can do Everest BC depending on time availability
