Kalapatthar to Kathmandu Helicopter Flight - 3 Hours

Kalapatthar to Kathmandu Helicopter Flight Overview

Are you planning to go for the Everest Base Camp Trek this tourism season? Well, let us tell you that the trek is amazingly adventurous and strenuous at the same time. You will love walking to the altitude of 5545 meters.

But, what are your plans for returning? Do you want to walk down the same path to Lukla for the flight or return with the helicopter flight straight from Kalapatthar to Kathmandu?

If you are looking for a relaxing return after a heart-pumping and adventurous walk to the Everest Base Camp, then Green Valley Nepal Treks can arrange a Kalapatthar to Kathmandu Helicopter Flight for you.

This is one of the best and the most relaxing ways to get to Kathmandu after trekking for around 10 days straight. No need to worry about walking down for another 5-6 days, getting to Lukla, and again setting up with the same airport formalities.

We suggest the trekkers try the helicopter flight from Kalapatthar to Kathmandu if they are looking for an aerial adventure and sightseeing experience in the Khumbu region.

The flight takes off as you reach Kalapatthar and get the most stunning view of Mount Everest. Within a few minutes, you will again see the same mountain but this time, you will be an eagle, watching down to Everest from beyond the clouds.

Most travel agencies provide Kalapatthar landing tour packages. These flights take you to the Kalapatthar on flight land at the Everest View Hotel. You will not be trekking and the landing will be done at 3962 meters above sea level. If you are an adventure seeker, these packages might not be ideal for you. So, Green Valley Nepal Treks has come up with the Kalapatthar to Kathmandu Helicopter Flight Package.

Dividing the Groups for the Helicopter Flight from Kalapatthar to Kathmandu

Kalapatthar viewpoint stands at an altitude of 5545 meters and is the last point of the Everest region trekking. Due to such high altitude and thin air followed, helicopters cannot carry very heavy loads at Kalapatthar. Therefore, when you get on the flight from Kalapatthar only three people with the maximum weight of 240 kg are allowed.

After reaching Lukla and refueling, five people with a total weight of 350 to 500 kg can get on a single helicopter. However, if you have some extra weight and you cannot bring the baggage with you. In such case, we bring the baggage in another shuttle, for which you will have to pay a little extra. Make sure that you reveal the actual weight of the baggage before onboarding the flight so that we can arrange the helicopter and your timings according to that.
