Furthermore, walking to the base camp is rewarding for experiencing the Everest area of the Mera Peak climb. The path passes over densely forested hills.

The high camp of Mera Peaks presents one of Nepal’s spectacular viewpoints that offer panoramic views of Kanchanjunga, Chamlang, Makalu, and Baruntse, which extend from the east and Amadablam, Cho Oyu and Kangtega to the west.
