Combo climb Mera Peak & Island Peak over Amphu Laptsa

This special trip is for climbers looking forward to trying to summit to mountains during the same trip. Mera Peak and Island Peak are geographically close to each other, but are split by a huge mountain chain. Standard route to Mera Peak is Hinku valley and to Island Peak the Khumbu valley.

We will trek into the remote Hinku valley and set camp on Mera Peak Base camp or directly at Mera Peak High camp and after that doing a summit push.             Later we will trek to Island Peak Base camp and to be able to go there we need to cross the notorious and difficult Amphu Laptsa Pass at 5780 meters.

This trip will make it possible to see the beautiful Hinku valley, climb two very famous peaks and also cross the Amphu Laptsa pass.

Our schedule is giving you an extra day to gain power in Island Peak Base camp. There is also an extra day in case of bad weather to give you even better chances to climb both summits.

We recommend you to join our pre- and safety weekend ahead of your trip to the Himalayas starts. You should have good physical health. You don’t have to have earlier experience on alpine climbing to join these two expeditions but we see it as a plus.

Your physical health needs to be good to be able to enjoy this adventure trip to Himalaya at most. It is a very popular trip for people looking for an exciting adventure. You will have fantastic views over Makalu, Lhotse and Ama Dablam from Island Peak and from Mera Peak you will have beautiful views over five out of the six highest mountains in the world, Everest, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse,  Makalu and Cho Oyu

You should be prepared for trekking days of 4-6h trekking and sometimes longer.
