About Mountain Flight in Nepal (Everest Region)

Mountain flight is one of the best ways to explore Nepal For those who are restricted by time from going trekking can get a panoramic close-up view of Mount Everest and the landscape of the Himalayas in just an hour. Mountain flight offers you to view panoramic views of the highest mountain on earth and many other beautiful mountains. Mountain flight takes you within camera range of some of the highest peaks and mountain ranges.

A few domestic airlines offer mountain flights from Tribhuvan International Airport. Almost a one-hour journey on a mountain flight is one of the most spectacular journeys in your memory. Travelers take off from Kathmandu in the early morning and the aircraft heads east towards eastern Nepal, First to their far left visitors see Gosaithan (also called Shisha Pangma) just after the Gosaikunda Mountain called Dorge lakpa (6966 m), to the right of Dorje Lakpa is Phurbi-Ghyachu which looms over the Kathmandu valley. It allows getting the closest and the best view of Mount Everest (8,848 m), Choba-Bhamare(5933 m), the smallest but singularly stubborn as it has never been climbed. It also gives you the best opportunity to view Melungtse, a plateau-like mountain, that stretches up to 7,023 m. Chugimago at 6,297 m is still a virgin, waiting to be climbed at 6,956 m; Numbur Mountain resembles a breast, the maternal source in the sky providing pure milk Sherpas of the Solukhumbu. Another one is Karyolung, an intensely white mountain that at 6,511 m gleams with the rising sun. Cho-Oyu is the sixth-highest mountain in the world. Reaching a height of 8,201 m, it appears stunningly beautiful from the aircraft.
