Climbing to the summit of one of the highest mountains is a lifetime dream to all the trekkers and mountaineers of the world. Nirekha Peak, located between the mighty mountain ranges of Everest, Cholatsu and Cho Oyu is one of the famous and demanding trekking destinations of Khumbu region. This less challenging and easy trek gives you an opportunity to grab experience on climbing the risky and dangerous mountains of our country and also gain experience on technical climbing. This beautiful peak is hidden between the huge Himalayas and is located in the Khumbu region at Mahalangur range.
Nireka Peak Climbing gives you an awesome opportunity to do the sightseeing of some of the highest mountain ranges of our country such as Everest, Cholatse, Cho Oyu, Lhotse, Nuptse, Tawache, Pumori, Changri and many other majestic Himalayan ranges. This beautiful journey is not only adventurous but also gives the visitors an awesome opportunity to do the sightseeing of the unique culture and lifestyle of people living in the Khumbu region since many years. One can also explore the rare species of animals and birds found in the Khumbu region of our country. One should need a good physical stamina and climbing experience to reach to its summit and we personally recommend to be physically as well as mentally prepared for the challenges and obstacles that we should face above the height of 7000m.
Nirekha Peak climbing starts with a scenic flight to Lukla. We will then start our trek and trek through many ancient Sherpa settlements and forests to cross the famous Chola Pass. Trekking ahead will take us to the base camp of Nirekha peak. You will be given some basic trainings in the base camp which will help you in the challenging climb at the trail to its summit. Trekking ahead and then climbing through the challenging trail will take us to the summit of this mountain
