Highlights

Overview

Nirekha peak (6159m, 20,206ft.) is one of many newly opened Himalayan climbing and trekking peaks in Nepal. Nirekha is in the Mahalangur Region, deep in the Himalayas, close to the Tibetan border and hidden among the well-known giants of Everest, Cho Oyu, and Cholatse. The climb itself is relatively straightforward, though it does require ice-axe, crampons and some fixed rope sections. It is a very do-able climb for anyone in good shape and with a desire for high adventure.
 
It is one of the most famous view points among all the peaks of Nepal.  From the view point, one will have  panoramic views of Himalayan peaks like Everest (8850), Nuptse (7879m), Lhotse (9501m), Lhotse Shar (8383m), Makalu (8475m), Baruntse (7720m), and Ama Dablam (6856m) Thamserku, Cho-oyu etc.
 
Experienced climbers should attempt the summit. Nirekha peak requires some technical skills of peak climbing.
