all in all very nice - Mera Peak has some of the greatest views across all the Himalaya. It is also not technical, so you can reach the summit by walking.
The Journey was organised very well, when some troubles arose they were taken care of swiftly and our guide Danshingh was very nice.

Great experience - The trip was well organized, they took care of everything. Due to the heavy rainfalls end of September there were some troubles with the flights to Lukla and Rabin was working hard to get us on the plane!
Our guide Dhansingh was very nice and we had a good time with him. Finally, we reached the summit.

Amazing Mera Trek - My Mera Peak Winter Trip has been an amazing and memorable experience. This was my fourth trip to the Himalaya. The views were mesmerisingly beautiful at every turns. The trek was strenuous especially when it comes to the crossing of the Zawtra La Pass and of course during the summit push. Nevertheless, the panoramic view whether it is from the summit or along the trail outweigh the tiredness. Because it was winter season, there were very few guesthouses operating. Anyway, our trekking agency has prearranged the necessary.
I took Everest Trekking Routes Pvt Ltd as my team trekking agent. As a matter of fact, Mr Rabin Gurung who is now the General Manager of the company, used to be my trekking guide in my previous trips to the Himalaya. He and his company never disappoint me or my team. His team of trekking guides were well trained with the necessary knowledge and resourcefulness. During this winter trip, our trekking guides were Mr Sushil Gurung and Mr Sukraraj Gurung, both were of cheerful, energetic and entertaining character. They were very responsible and resourceful too. Our porters, Mr Dumzan ManKumar Tamang and Mr Samphure Tamang were very strong, fast and highly responsible as well. So were our Sherpas guide, Gyalje and Rajah. They were very strong, highly skilled and professional yet gentle and friendly.
In conclusion, I fully recommend this Mera Peak trip if you are looking forward to do a 6000er, whether you want to do it in spring, or autumn. And I also recommend this company, Everest Trekking Routes Pvt Ltd as a professional, reliable and highly responsible trekking agent.

Christmas Climb - This was my first trip to Nepal for peak climbing but both of my trekking buddies went on trips with Everest Trekking Routes Pvt. Ltd before so I don't have any doubts because they do deliver a great service that make the trip memorable. Our guide, Sushil, Dawa and Millan was so enjoyable to be with and they also share knowledge about the mountain and the cultures. Our strong porters, Man Kumar and Sampure, they not only carry our bags but they also help us out during our trek especially when one of my friends got sick.
We successfully climbed Mera Peak thanks to them and also our Sherpas, Geljye and Raza, for their patience and neverending support. Moreover Geljye and Raza also provide us great care during our stay at Refuge Mera. They are great cook too.We get the chance to celebrate new year at Mr Rabin's hometown where we were welcomed warmly as a family. He took great care of us during our stay and makes us experience the Gurung cultures which is so amazing. The whole experience is something that I will never trade off and definitely will come back for another peak climbing with their service. Thanks again to Mr Rabin, guides, porters and Sherpas for a fun trek and successful summit.

Mind-blowing, exciting, thrilling, beautiful, great hospitality - We started to plan this trip at least a year ago. By the help of Everest Trekking Routes Pvt. Ltd. , slowly we make our preparations and the trip commenced.
We purposely selected this month as we wanted to try peak climbing during winter. We had a good start with Sushil Gurung as our trekking guide. I knew Sushil since 2016 as he was the one who helped to take care of me at Namche Baazar when i was "forced" to go down from Lobuche due to AMS. Very nice trekking guiding, happy go lucky, and funny too. He took care of our well-being during our trip, make sure we are well fed! Its almost off-season when we came, meaning problem arises along the way in terms of logistic. However, Sushil tackled it all wisely to make sure we have a smooth journey.
Do not believe 100% of what you read about Mera Peak from the internet. It is not as easy as it sounded, especially during winter climb. Although it is considered the easiest peak climb, but she has her own "challenges" to offer. HOWEVER, i highly recommend this peak for those who wanted to try their first peak climb or first 6000m peak climbing.
Starting from Lukla to the summit, you have to go through series of incline and decline which i think helped a lot with my "Problem". I am an "Altitude-Intolerant" person. Meaning my body is not very good at adapting altitude. From Lukla(2860m) - Chuttanga(3500m) - cross-over Chattra la pas 4600m - Thulikarka (4200m) - Khote (3400m), i think this initial incline and decline helped me to counter my problem with AMS.
The team arranged by ETRPL to assist us, consist of superhuman strength/speed porters Man Kumar & Samphure, funny-happy-go-lucky Trekking Guide Sushil Gurung, incredible mountain guide Gaylje Sherpa & Raza Sherpa were the main key to our successful summit. Utmost gratitude to director of ETRPL Rabin Gurung for such excellent arrangement! This is not the first time Rabin arranged peak climbing for us. Personally, Rabin arranged my Lobuche East Peak back in 2016. Although i failed to summit due to Cerebral Edema, quick action by Rabin to send me down with a trekking guide saved my life!
I highly recommended Rabin(Everest Trekking Routes Pvt Ltd) to arranged any of your trip here in Nepal. Their rates are reasonable and the director is a very honest and humble person. Thank you ETRPL and team!

Memorable First Experience Trekking in Nepal - Booked my trekking trip to Nepal and as a first-time trekker to Nepal, all is well organized by Rabin Gurung. He is very attentive, accommodative and had attended all my queries promptly and thus without hesitation, I am convinced to book the trip. As time is limited for me, he caters and customized my trip itinerary as best fit for my schedules and assigned Sukra as my guide. Thanks to Sukra Gurung, a guide who is particularly friendly and helpful, I learned a lot during my 12 days trekking with him about culture, language, trekking tips,etc. He adapted to my pace while trekking as I am in the awe of enjoying the view at the same time. Consequently, I had my first wonder of unforgettable experience trekking in Nepal with undoubtedly breathtaking views, socializing with friendly locals and this trip will definitely not be the last, Nepal is an Amazing Country, and I will come back for more to embark on another trekking journey with Everest Trekking Routes. That being said, I personally recommend Rabin and his Team services to anyone who wanted to explore trekking in Nepal. See you guys again soon. Dhan'yavāda:)
