Everest Scenic Flight

Overview

To visit Mt Everest in person, you may either train for years to climb its snowy top, walk over several days to get a look at the vistas from afar or take a scenic mountain flight from Kathmandu to see the Himalayas in all its majesty from the skies.

As you take off from Tribhuvan International Airport, you will soar above Kathmandu Valley, through verdant lowlands, terraced rice fields, and forests of juniper, rhododendron, and pine. Slowly, the lush greenery gives way to more steep slopes and sparse flora, revealing lichen-covered rock and snippets of snow. Soon after, you will be welcomed by amazing views of the mountains from up close. On the propeller jet leaving Kathmandu, everybody gets a window seat as two rows of single seats lines the cabin on each side, giving everyone an excellent view of the Eastern Himalaya. Grab the seats on the left side of the plane to be the first to see the mountain, and attempt to grab a seat immediately in front of the wing for an unobstructed view of the region. You will get to see, Everest, Ama Dablam, Cho Oyu, Ganesh Himal, Lantang, Makalu, Lakpa Dorje, and much more. 

You will get informed on the flight about the mountains that can be seen from the view as well as be provided with a map showcasing the mountains by the air hostesses. The flight normally lasts between 50 minutes and an hour. The mountain flight does not just provide breathtaking views but also helps you grasp Nepal's geography. 

Nothing compares to the overwhelming beauty and grandeur of the Himalayas. Take the Everest Experience, the mother of all mountain flights, where we put you face to face with Mt. Everest, so close you can nearly touch it.

Best Season for Everest Scenic Flight

The Everest scenic flight is accessible all year. We will conduct Everest mountain flying if the weather is clear. There may be unpredictable weather in July and August, making it difficult to book a mountain flight.

The months of from September to April are ideal for catching a view of the dazzling peaks. This is the time of year when the mountains are covered with white snow, and lakes and glaciers are brimming with pure water streaming down from the Himalayas.

During the monsoon seasons and summer, the peaks are rather dry and flights are prone to cancellations due to uncertainty in weather. Hence we recommend winter-spring as the ideal mountain flight time.
