The verdant rhododendron forest intertwined with Himalayan bamboo exudes sweet fragrances of the wild. Different kinds of alpine animals like snow leopard, musk deer, red panda, deer, langur monkeys, wolves, black bear et cetera and plants like hemlock, Parish Polyphilla, Artemesia, swertia, fir, pine, rhododendron, fern, cordyseps, poplar et cetera on the trail through Sagarmatha National Park are literally phenomenal.

Optionally, hiking towards Namche (3440m), slowly gaining acclimatization and heading through Sherpa settlements Tengboche and Dingboche is another way to approach Mera Peak, the highest mountain peak in Nepal for which mountaineers are required to have basic ice-axe and crampon skills for the ascent.

#Mera Peak difficulties
Mera Peak (6461m) is considered the highest non-technical trekking peak in Nepal. The first time climbers might find it a little strenuous which is normal for anyone.

You don’t necessarily have to be a professional mountaineer for Mera Peak Climbing. Taking altitude and preparation into consideration, any novice or professional who is physically fit and sound can climb Mera Peak.

#Mera peak Weather
Mera Peak operable seasons are March to May in Spring and September to November in Autumn  apart from other seasons of the year as they are either abnormally slushy, snowy or rainy and most of the time there can be clouds that block the view of the peaks in the proximity and at distance.
