Hello to everyone from Nepal from the group "V Meru Peak"! Today our May Day demonstration of 14 participants and 2 guides set out from our beloved village of Kote towards the village of Tagnak!

The weather, frankly speaking, is not at all May! We were already walking in a drizzling rain in the morning, and a couple of hours later it started snowing. On the way, we stopped at a small Buddhist monastery and prayed for better weather.

We arrived in the village of Tagnak (4300) by lunchtime. While we were checking into the lodge and eating, a miracle happened - the weather suddenly cleared up and we saw the Himalayas in all their glory! Someone up there in the heavenly office heard us after all!

Now we are resting, warming ourselves by the stove and enjoying the views. And tomorrow we are going higher.

Guides: Alexander Dorozhukov and Sveta Kotlyar.

Today, another wonderful team "Tuda - Suda" gathered in Nepal. We checked into the historic hotel "Yak and Yeti". We checked our equipment, walked along the shopping streets, bought what was missing. We discussed plans for tomorrow over a delicious dinner.

We have a short night ahead of us, because at five in the morning we leave for the airport to fly from the busy and densely populated Kathmandu to the stone Lukla. And from there we will walk to the Everest Base Camp. So, tomorrow we will delight you with breathtaking views of mountain landscapes.

The guides Andrey Berezina and Kristina Putintseva.

Hello to everyone from Nepal from the "V Meru Peak" team! It snowed all night yesterday. So much snow that you could play snowballs and make snowmen. In the morning the weather cleared up, and at 9 o'clock, after breakfast, we began the descent to 3600 to the village of Kote. After the pass, we went down to the rhododendron forest. The descent was beautiful, although slippery. Just imagine: bright scarlet flowers, dusted with snow!

We stopped for lunch on the way at the lodge and made it before the rain. The second part of the route passed through the forest, we walked under the clouds! Amazing nature, almost complete absence of people on the route, a completely different, atypical Nepal!

As a result, we went down to the river through the forest and checked into a very cozy lodge, where we will spend two days for better acclimatization. How nice it is to go down into the warmth! Everyone is cheerful and happy!

We will soon have dinner and plan to spend a warm evening singing with a guitar.

Guides: Alexander Dorojukov and Sveta Kotlyar.

Mera Peak. April 27/28. Greetings to everyone from Nepal from the "V Meru Peak" team! We are doing great! The connection is unstable, though, so we are sending news for the last two days at once.

Yesterday morning we left Lukla and headed towards the village of Chutang. It is amazing, but the nature here is very different from what we see on the track to EBC, although we simply went to another gorge.

Of course, the conditions on the route are also very different - there are much fewer people here and the lodges are much simpler. But there is a special atmosphere here! We reached Chutang in 3 hours, gaining 700 m in altitude.

It was snowing and raining almost all night. At 7.45 we left the lodge. Today's trek was quite long - 6-7 hours. At first we admired the forest of blooming rhododendron trees, covered with moss and dusted with snow, and then as we gained altitude, the weather began to deteriorate sharply and visibility disappeared completely.

Nevertheless, we overcame the Zatrva La pass (4600), and driven by the wind and snow, we descended to our lodge in the village of Tuli-Kharka (4250), where we are already having lunch and warming ourselves by the stove!  A great working day!

Hello to everyone from Nepal from a new group called "To Meru Peak"!

Yesterday, our team in full force (14 people) gathered in Kathmandu. We walked around Thamel, the tourist area of the city, bought the missing equipment. In the evening, over a welcome dinner, we held a briefing, decided on plans for the coming days.

Today we moved to Lukla, from where our journey towards the summit of Mera Peak will begin! Today we are resting, getting used to the new altitude (2800), and tomorrow we start off in the mountains!

Namaste from Nepal! The "Annapurchata" group has completed the active part of the trekking program to the Annapurna base camp. Today we arrived in Pokhara, tomorrow we are flying to Kathmandu - the final point of our route.

The 7 Summits Club  guide Kotlyar sends from Nepal: 

Hello everyone from Everest Base Camp! Today was a day full of a variety of emotions)) At 4 am, our trekking group set out to climb Kala Patthar Peak. For many participants, this was their first mountain experience, and not everyone found the climb easy, but we did it! At 7 am, our entire team was standing at the summit!

 We descended to Gorakshep, had breakfast, and headed towards Everest Base Camp — the final point of our program. Today, we reunited with the climbing team, and we missed each other during the day!

 All participants, without exception, were shocked by the conditions and service we provide here! Alex Abramov and Viktor Volodin rode into the camp on horses, it was epic! Lena Abramova greeted us with champagne and snacks, and for lunch there was delicious borscht!

In the evening, our trekkers were awarded, we watched films on the plasma, sang songs with a guitar. It was very soulful! Tomorrow we return to Kathmandu.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Kotlyar sends messages from Nepal:

Greetings to everyone from the team of trekkers going to the Everest Base Camp! Our morning began with the fact that we celebrated the birthday of Dementiy - one of the members of our team! We baked a real big cake!

Today, our huge team split up. Two groups of Everest climbers stayed for one more night in Lobuche for better acclimatization. And we went higher - to the place of Gorakshep, at an altitude of 5100. The views today were just crazy! Nuptse in all its glory! We saw our Everest base camp from afar, where we will be tomorrow!

We have already checked into the lodge. After lunch we want to take a short walk, and early in the morning we will set out to climb Kala Patthar.

Namaste from Nepal! The 7 Summits Club team "Our Mini Group" successfully climbed Lobuche East yesterday. We were already at the top point at 8:30 local time. It snowed the day before the climb, so we had to put on crampons right away. The weather was favorable for the climb, a little cloudiness did not prevent us from enjoying the views from the top.
