MERA, ISLAND PEAK AND LOBUCHE EAST PEAK 2025/2026 3×6000ers

Trip Overview

Mera Peak, Island Peak & Lobuche East, if you are dreaming of climbing in the Himalayas but are not quite ready for the big 8,000 meter giants, Mera Peak (6,476m), Island Peak (6,189m) and Lobuche East (6,119m) are three of the best trekking peaks to start with. Each one offers a different kind of challenge whether you're looking for high-altitude trekking, technical climbing, or a stepping stone to bigger mountains.

Mera Peak (6,476m) – The Highest and Easiest Peak Climbing

Mera Peak is the tallest of Nepal’s trekking peaks but don’t let that scare you. It is actually the least technical of the three, making it a great choice if you are new to mountaineering. The climb involves a long trek through the stunning Hinku Valley, followed by a glacier walk to the summit.

Island Peak (6,189m) – A Classic Himalayan Climbing

Island Peak (Imja Tse) is one of the most popular trekking peaks in Nepal and for good reason. It is more technical than Mera, requiring some rope work, ladder crossings and steep ice climbing near the summit. It is a perfect choice if you are looking to gain real mountaineering experience while standing right in the heart of the Everest region.

Lobuche East Peak (6,119m) – The Most Technical Peak Climbing

Lobuche East Peak is a solid step up from Mera and Island Peak, making it the best option if you want a real challenge. It involves steep rock, ice and snow climbing, plus some exposed ridge sections.

Whether you’re a beginner looking to summit your first Himalayan peak or an experienced climber seeking a technical challenge, Mera Peak, Island Peak and Lobuche East Peak each offer a unique and thrilling experience. Climbing these peaks is not only a test of endurance but also an opportunity to immerse yourself in the breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage of the Himalayas.
