Everest Mountain Overfly with Gokyo Lake Overfly from Kathmandu

Share your preferred travel date, the number of passengers, exact passenger weights, and baggage details with Mountain Helicopters Nepal. Our operations team will verify helicopter availability, weather conditions, airport status, and total payload to ensure the flight can be operated safely. Once everything is confirmed, you will receive your final itinerary, reporting time, meeting point, and baggage allowance, so you can prepare for a smooth and hassle-free journey.

Before boarding, the crew briefs passengers on seating, restraint belts, communication signals, and in-flight procedures. If the total weight exceeds the allowed limit, some baggage will need to be stored or sent separately in the next helicopter flight but will charge an extra cost in this case.

The helicopter flies east across hills, farmland, and river valleys to Lukla, where a brief stop is made for refueling.

From Lukla, the helicopter continues over Namche Bazaar and Tengboche Monastery to Pheriche, at around 4,240 meters, where each pair enjoys a close overfly of the Everest Base Camp and Kalapatthar area, followed by an aerial view of Gokyo Lake before returning to Pheriche.

Once all passengers have completed both overflights, the group reunites at Pheriche, and the helicopter heads directly back toward Kathmandu, with a brief refueling stop at Lukla along the way.
