So what is the difference between a trek and a trekking peak? Very simply, a trek generally takes you on a route around the peaks while trekking peak routes take you to the top of those peaks. This means you are going to climb to the top of a real Himalayan summit!
This might not be Everest or Annapurna but the two trekking peaks we have chosen, Island Peak and Mera Peak, are amazing challenges and offer the most awesome views for those who succeed in summiting.
So, if you have already climbed Kilimanjaro and are looking for a Nepal adventure that goes beyond the normal treks, check out these two fantastic adventures. You need no technical climbing skills to take on either of these challenges.
We will teach you everything you know on the trek, from crossing crevasses to hiking on glaciers in crampons. Whichever peak you choose you will be in safe hand as all our guides are highly qualified and many have summited Everest.
This is a real mountain expedition. It combines the Everest Base Camp trek with the chance to climb Island Peak for one of the best close up views of Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse. The climb itself is tough but you do not need any technical skills as you will be led by one of our fantastic Everest Summiteer guides to ensure you are in safe hands.
At 6476m, Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in Nepal. It does not take you to base camp, but it does have the best views of Everest and the whole region. Mera is approached via the quiet Arun Valley before ascending onto the long Mera glacier. As with the Island Peak climb, no previous technical experience is required.
