Everest Base Camp Helicopter Trek- 10 Days

Our representative will take you to the Tribhuwan International Airport. With amazing views of Mount Everest and the Himalayan Alps, we’ll arrive in Lukla.

Following landing at Lukla airport after a 40-minute flight above a green slope, we’ll finish off the last-minute preparations. From here, some of our Himalayan guides will join us. We’ll walk to Phakding after spending around 30 minutes in Lukla’s lovely village. As we trek over the steep slopes of Mt. Khumbila, we will be accompanied by Mt. Khumbila. Phakding is where you’ll spend the night.

As we pass via many bridges across the Dudh Koshi river, Mt. Thamserku will be a visual feast. We’ll arrive at the Sagarmatha National Park‘s entrance, where your hiking permits will be checked.

We’ll then go through Jorsale to Namche Bazaar, the Sherpa capital. The path leads us through trees and over bridges till we reach the Dudh Koshi and Bhote Koshi rivers’ confluence. The main sight of Everest across the Lhotse-Nuptse ridge will greet us.

In Chauteri, we’ll come to a standstill to let the significance of the moment sink in. This may also assist you in climbing higher. To go to Namche Bazaar, we’ll have to climb for about 1.5 hours. Overnight.

It’s usually a good idea to take a day off on your Everest Base Camp journey. You can adapt to a specific cold zone with this device. We’ll go to Thame and Khunde villages to get used to the altitude.

In addition, we will visit Khumjung hamlet, the Everest View Hotel, and the Hillary School. Our tour guide will tell us about the monuments and villages that we will see. Before we return to Namche, take in the spectacular views of Everest, Kongde, Thamserku, and Khumbila.

We’ll continue our trek to Tyangboche after breakfast. Everest, Nuptse, Lhotse, Amadoblam, and Thamserku will be our constant companions. On the trail, we’ll have to navigate the ups and downs. Once we’ve seen the beauty of untamed existence, the hike will lead us up to Kayangjuma.

The walk continues over the Dudh Koshi River, passing through pine forests and colorful prayer flags. We’ll arrive in Phungi Thenga, a small tea hamlet in the middle of the woods with a small army station.

We’ll head to Tengboche after resting in Phungi Thenga, which may necessitate a hike up the hill. In Tyangboche, the Khumbu region’s most prominent Buddhist monastery, we will get the opportunity to see it. 

We left early in the morning after breakfast to begin our journey. A series of little towns, Chortens, and stupas greet us as we make our way to Dingboche. You’ll be rewarded with a vista of the Amadoblam Mountains on the way to Dingboche.

Lunch will be at Dingboche, where you will rest for a little before heading out for a hike in the afternoon. Spend the night in Sherpa territory.

Today is the acclimatization day. Your body must acclimate to the changing altitude and atmosphere, as previously said. As a result, there is little risk of altitude sickness. You, on the other hand, do not sit around all day.

As a result, your preparedness for the adventure ahead is aided by the trek to the summit. Nangkartsang divides the valley in two. The Imja valley on the way to Chukkung is on one side, and Lobuche’s valley is on the other. The hike has a high rise. As you trek towards the summit, the views of Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Ama Dablam, and other peaks are breathtaking.

We’ll begin the trek today by climbing to Thokla via the Khumbu Khola valley (Dughla). The path can be difficult at times. We’ll arrive in Dughla and begin the hard ascent of the Khumbu glacier.

We can see our way through the hillside as we mount Chupki Lhara. We’ll see lovely Tibetan prayer flags and memorials to famous people who died on Everest missions as we climb to the top.

It’s only a day before you reach the summit of Everest. We’re nearly there. This is where the beginning of thin air begins. Complexity can be difficult to inhale.

The Khumbu glaciers’ lateral moraine is crossed on the way to Gorakshep. The crest of Everest’s north ridge, as well as MT. Pumori, Mahalangur, Lingtem, Khumbutse, Nuptse, and others, will be visible ahead on the trail.

We’ll climb a short distance to Thangma Riju, where we’ll have a 360-degree view of snow-capped mountains. As we ascend the Changri Glacier, we get our first glimpse of Kala Patthar. We will be surrounded by snow-capped mountains as we approach Gorakshep, including the magnificent Mount Everest.

We’ll take in the view from there. We paused to take it all in. It’s strange. We feel like we’re on top of the world. We’ll resume our journey to Everest Base Camp after lunch.

After completing our trek to Everest Base Camp we now return back to Gorak shep and stay overnight.

We’ll start our journey to Kalapathar early in the morning since we don’t want to lose out on the beautiful vistas of Everest illuminated by the sun’s beams.

We must, however, prepare for darkness and bitterly frigid conditions (-10 to -14 degrees Celsius). Lingtren, Khumbutse, and Changtse Tower are among the other peaks we’ll see. After hours of traveling, we’ll arrive to Kalapatthar, the best viewpoint on the planet. When we get to the top, we sit down.

You are free to take as many images as you wish. The beauty that your eyes can catch, on the other hand, cannot be compared. You’ll be so enthralled with the gorgeous surroundings that you won’t realize how important the trip is.

After returning to Gorak Shep from Kala Patthar now, we will fly to Lukla via Helicopter. Again you will be able to witness the beautiful science of the mountains. Experience a wonderful helicopter experience.

From Helicopter, you’ll return to Kathmandu. You will arrive in Kathmandu in 45 minutes. You will be transported to your hotel as soon as you arrive at TIA. You can take a break there for a while. The Everest Base Camp helicopter journey comes to an end here.  If you like, you can visit a nearby attraction before your flight.
