Saddle Hut

Saddle Hut, perched at 3,566 meters, is the final overnight stop before summiting Mount Meru. Set in a scenic alpine saddle between Little Meru and Socialist Peak, the camp offers dorm-style huts, a mess hall, and a ranger station. Surrounded by open moorland, it's the perfect place to rest and acclimatize. Many trekkers opt for a short hike to **Little Meru (3,820 m)** for panoramic views and altitude adjustment. As night falls, the camp quiets down early, preparing climbers for the midnight ascent to the summit — the most thrilling part of the trek.
