Upon your arrival at Kathmandu Airport, our team representing us will pick you up and drop you at your hotel. You will take some time to rejuvenate at the hotel by resting and freshening up.

Once you feel good, you will go nearby for a brief walk. Later in the evening, we will meet you at the dinner hosted by our team. Along with Nepalese cuisine, we will introduce ourselves too. You will return to the hotel afterward for the night.

The following day, we will meet again at our office for a brief meeting on the Mt.Baruntse Expedition itinerary. During the session, you will also know the team and members of the expedition. Next, we will arrange and confirm papers, clothing, and equipment.

When that is over, we will go out on a sightseeing drive around Kathmandu. The historical capital of Nepal, Kathmandu, is full of world heritage sites. We will go after several, like Pashupatinath Temple, Monkey Temple, Basantapur Durbar Square, and Bouddhnath Stupa. It will be an explorative half of the day. After all of this, we will have a good night.

Today we start our journey for which we catch the early morning flight to Lukla takes about 30 minutes. at Lukla, we will have some time to rearrange the bags for the porters. Leaving Lukla the trail first goes through the Lukla town and passes the hospital.

the trail now continues gradually along the farmlands and eventually crosses the suspension bridge before the few houses. here on the trail is mostly an uphill climb all the way to Chutanga through the forest where we spend our first in the mountain.

The trek from Chutanga to Thuli Kharka involves a steep ascent to Zatrwa La Pass (4,610 m), followed by a descent to Thuli Kharka. The route offers stunning views of Kongdi Ri, Numbur Himal, and Karyolung, with diverse landscapes transitioning from alpine forests to rugged terrain.

The morning trek angulates on a desolate mountain for a while and in the meantime, you will see the first sight of Mera peak which we going to climb first before Baruntse. after this, the trail steeply descends through the rhododendron forests until Thulo Dhunga( Big rock) and descends through the mixed forests of Pine and rhododendron.  now the trail continues upstream of Hinku Khola which gradually climbs until Kothe.

Kothe is a beautiful Sherpa village and has some shops, telecommunication facility, and police station as well.

The trek from Kothe to Thangnak is a steady ascent through the Hinku Valley. The trail gradually climbs through alpine forests, passing small meadows and yak herders’ camps. As you approach Thangnak, the landscape opens up with views of Mera Peak and surrounding snow-capped mountains. Thangnak is a peaceful stop, often used for acclimatization before further climbing.

Today, we take an acclimatization day in Thagnak, where we climb a nearby hill overlooking the Mount Kusum Kanguru Glacier. Although the trail is a steep climb, the view is worth the effort, offering breathtaking vistas of Mera Peak, Kusum Kanguru, and Khyasar, along with stunning lakes, glaciers, and rivers. This day not only allows for recovery but also helps maintain movement at altitude, ensuring you’re well-prepared for the next leg of the journey.

The trek from Thangnak to Khare is a steady climb through rocky and moraine-filled terrain. As you ascend, the landscape becomes more barren, with scattered glaciers and snow-covered slopes. Khare is a small settlement and a key stop for climbers, providing accommodation and final preparations before attempting Mera Peak. The views of Mera Peak become even more impressive as you approach Khare.

In Khare, we take an acclimatization day to adjust to the high altitude and prepare for the summit attempt. This includes rest, hydration, and a short trek to a higher elevation, such as Mera La (5,400 m / 17,717 ft), to aid acclimatization without overexertion. During this time, our Sherpa guide also provides instructions on essential climbing techniques, including the use of crampons and an ice axe, rope skills, and crevasse rescues, along with a weather and safety briefing. This combination of rest, training, and expert guidance ensures you’re physically and technically prepared for a safe ascent.

The climb to Mera High Camp is a challenging ascent through rocky terrain, ice, and snow, with steep sections and glacier moraines. Fixed ropes are used for safety as the terrain can be unstable. Upon reaching High Camp, just below the summit ridge, you’ll set up camp and enjoy stunning views of Mera Peak and the surrounding mountains, the final stop before the summit push.

The summit day starts early to take advantage of optimal weather. From High Camp, climbers ascend a snow-covered ridge using fixed ropes, crampons, and ice axes. The final push is steep but rewards climbers with panoramic views of Everest, Makalu, and Lhotse. After summiting, the descent to Mera La is long but manageable, retracing the route to the pass. The total duration depends on weather, conditions, and the climber’s experience.

The trek from Mera La to Kongme Dingma descends through the scenic Hinku Valley, passing rocky moraines, alpine meadows, and small streams. The remote landscape offers views of Mera Peak and surrounding mountains. Kongme Dingma, a peaceful settlement, provides a perfect spot for rest and acclimatization, with stunning vistas of the valley and peaks.

The trek from Kongme Dingma to Seto Pokhari takes you through a varied landscape, crossing glacial streams and moraines. The route follows a gradual descent and provides stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Seto Pokhari, a serene alpine lake, is a peaceful and picturesque spot to camp, offering a tranquil environment for relaxation and acclimatization before continuing the trek.

The trek from Seto Pokhari to Baruntse Base Camp is a challenging ascent through alpine meadows and rocky terrain. The route crosses glacial moraines, offering stunning views of Baruntse and surrounding peaks.

This rest day enhances your body’s adaptation to high altitude, reducing the risk of altitude sickness while ensuring you’re prepared for the challenging days ahead.

On this day, as part of the local rituals, a worshipping ceremony is held to ask for a safe passage to the summit and favorable weather. This combination of physical rest, spiritual ritual, and preparation provides both mental and physical strength, setting a positive tone for the challenging days ahead.

During this day, the Sherpa climbing guide provides crucial instruction and training on Baruntse climbing techniques, ensuring climbers are well-prepared for the challenges ahead.

The day today we start our climbing adventure in which the walking goes through the terminal moraine and eventually we climbs on a rocky cliff to reach the snowline with the assistance of fixed ropes. hereafter the trail goes through the glacier to Camp I  for the night.

The climb from camp I to camp II is more like a gradual walk on the glacier and doesn’t have as steep sections as the previous day. on this walk, you don’t really use ropes to reach the second camp of the Baruntse which is situated more like on a glacial plateau. The evening view of sunset on the surrounding mountain is outstanding.

This acclimatization day is a critical opportunity to prepare physically and mentally for the summit attempt while giving your body time to adjust to the high altitude.

On this day for the summit push, we start our day very early in the morning as we get to the top before the wind really picks up or before the cloud really disturbs our great sight.  so, we start with our headlamp on and today we mostly walk along the ridge which is narrower as well. we also traverse by the broken glaciers en route to the summit. but the good thing is our sherpa climbers fixes the rope beforehand on the steep sections to the summit.

you will have some time to take pictures and rejoice the moment on the summit then we have to descend all the way down to camp II for the night.

Today we descend further to Base camp for which our day starts off with an easy descend traversing through the glacier and eventually we have again a steep section through the gully before continue down to Base camp for the night.

The trek to Amphu Laptsa Base Camp features rugged terrain with rocky moraines, glacial streams, and snowfields, offering stunning views of the Hinku Valley. Nearing the pass, the trail becomes more challenging, requiring careful navigation. The base camp provides a vital rest spot amid breathtaking alpine scenery, preparing trekkers for the next day’s technical crossing.

On this day we start again earlier in the morning and traverse through the moraine terrain and to the Amphu Lapcha pass and after the pass we have technical descend to the valley with the assistance of ropes. after getting at the bottom it’s easy downhill walk to Chhukung where we stop for the night.

The trail from Chhukung descends through the scenic Imja Valley, passing Dingboche (4,410 m) and Tengboche (3,860 m), with stunning views of Ama Dablam, Everest, and other peaks. After a stop at Tengboche, the path winds downhill through rhododendron and pine forests, crossing suspension bridges over the Dudh Koshi River. It concludes at Namche Bazaar, the lively heart of the Khumbu region, offering a cozy stay and a chance to celebrate your trek.

On our last day of the adventure in the mountain, our morning walk mostly descent to the river and goes along the downstream of the river until Jorsalle. from here it is a short climb up to the checkpoint for Sagarmatha national park. Leaving the checkpoint it’s easy to walk until Phakding which passes through several small villages along the way. at Phakding we stop for lunch and our walk continues to Lukla which takes about 3 hours to reach.

On your final day, you will have some free time for last-minute shopping or sightseeing. You will then be transferred to Tribhuvan International Airport for your departure flight.
