Mountain flight from Kathmandu Nepal to see majestic Mount Everest-8848 m, flying at distance of 20 miles away from the peak itself, including 7 others highest peak of the world, Kanchanjunga-8586 m, Lhotse-8516 m, Makalu-8463 m, Cho Oyu-8201 m, Dhaulagiri-8167 m, Manaslu-8163 m, and Annapurna-8091 m are all in Nepal and you are going to see them in the mountain flight, as well as lakes and glaciers.
Taking a mountain flight is the world’s most exclusive trip of a lifetime, the best option and idea for those who can’t do expensive as well as weeks of physical trekking through the rough and rugged trail. Wise and adventurous people do not want to miss this life time experience while they are in Nepal simply because they have limited time in Nepal. Choose the right aircraft that guarantees you a window seat and you have enough time watching the peaks. Some flights end quickly, some don’t have bigger windows, some aircrafts very unsteady.
But we must honestly say the truth that some aircrafts fly so quickly that you won’t have much time to take many photos, others have small window seats that your time is gone just fixing your lenses. Some aircrafts small and not smooth.
Nepal is the home to the greatest range of Himalaya mountains in the world and many visitors come to Nepal to see them. However, not everyone is a trekker or a mountaineer or has the time to walk into the mountains, so, taking mountain flight could be the only option. If the weather is not clear, you are refunded back or option to fly on the next flight.
Pokhara offers Microlight or Ultralight flights to Annapurna Massif with spectacular views of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre. A microlight is a two-seated small aircraft with powered engine designed to carry no more than two people, the pilot and passenger. Buddha Air has also started the Mountain Flight to the same destination with an amount of 122USD.
For those extreme adventurers, there is an option to charter helicopters to fly into the Everest base camp, taking a short tour around the Everest valleys, landing for breakfast and then returning to Kathmandu.
Mountain flight to Everest takes you deep inside the Himalayas flying into the valleys close to the rock face as close as five nautical miles from Everest itself. You can see the stunning and majestic beauty of nature in an hour mountain flight in Nepal.
Idea to see Mount Everest through the window of a plane has no long history but certainly it has got some guts already and it is popular among the tourists. You didn’t climb Everest, but you definitely witnessed it. There will be a certificate as you exit from the plane.
