Arun Valley with Mera Peak

Trip Overview

An scenic flight take you to Tumlingtar from where our trail descend to the deep gorge of the beautiful Arun Valley. The Arun Valley is lush, green oasis, rich in bird life and these first few days provide a fascinating contrast to high mountain escape as we approach in to the Arun, Hunku Valley and Mera Peak. Our trekking route to the Mera La will take us through thick rhododendron and bamboo forest separating Hunku valleys. On the trail to Panch Pokhari will come across a beautiful Sherpa Village and Kirong La Buddhist Monastery.

A beautiful lake called Panch Pokhari lies on the way to Hunku and trails continue descend to Hunku River, a complete wilderness trail. The views of mountain along this section are superb and beautiful. Towards the east we can see the Kanchaejunga and Jannu Himal, to the north, the views of Hunku and Hongu dominate. The trail continues to Thangnag (4,366m.) from here we move to Khare (5,108m.) where we establish the base camp at the foot of the glacier leading to Mera-La (5,415m,). Here we have some of days to rest for explore around and acclimatization. Our return trails will take us south, down to the Hunku Drangka before turning west to cross the Zattrawa-La to the mountain airstrip at Lukla Bazar. Next day from here we will fly back to Kathmandu then transfer to the hotel.
