The route board

Ten ways to
reach the high Himalaya.

From a one-hour scenic flight to a fully-guided heli trek into Upper Mustang — every trip below is flown or led by the same crews, year-round.

Where we fly

Four regions, one crew
that knows every valley in them.

Each region below links to every route we fly there — heli treks, heli returns and pure scenic flights.

Why fly instead of walk it all

The mountains don't care how you arrive.
Your calendar does.

01

Days back, not comfort lost

A heli return trades a multi-day descent for a 40-minute flight — the same summit views, a fraction of the leave.

02

Built-in weather contingency

Every itinerary carries a buffer day and an alternate ground plan, so a socked-in morning never strands your trip.

03

Flown by CAAN-licensed crews

Our pilots and guides operate these exact valleys year-round — not a one-off charter booked for the day.

How a flight comes together

From enquiry to touchdown, in four steps.

01

Tell us your dates

Send your travel window and the summit or valley you want to see — we reply with routes that actually fit it.

02

We read the weather window

Your crew checks the forecast against the route and confirms a flight date, with a buffer day built in.

03

Pre-flight briefing

A short briefing in Kathmandu covers the route, altitude, and what to expect at each landing.

04

Wheels up

Board at Kathmandu or your trek's start point — most routes are airborne within 15 minutes of arrival.

"We stood at Kala Patthar for sunrise and were back at our Kathmandu hotel in time for a late lunch. I didn't think that was possible in the Khumbu."

★★★★★

"My knees would never have survived the walk out of Annapurna Sanctuary. The helicopter leg was smooth, and our pilot pointed out Machapuchare the entire way."

"Lo Manthang alone was worth the trip. Booking took ten minutes over WhatsApp with Sonam, and the whole itinerary ran exactly as planned, weather buffer and all."

Marta NowakLuxury Upper Mustang Heli Trek · Nov 2025
★★★★★

"Only had four days of leave and still got to see Everest up close. The Kathmandu briefing the evening before made the whole thing feel properly organised."

James WhitfieldEverest Mountain Flight By Heli · Aug 2025
★★★★★

"Our original flight got pushed a day for weather and nobody panicked — the buffer day they build in meant it barely affected the trip. That's when you know a company knows these mountains."

Priya NairGosainkunda Heli Tour · Jul 2025
★★★★☆

"Incredible views the whole way along the Himalayan skyline, and the pilot named every peak over the intercom. Would've liked a bit longer at the Everest View Hotel stop."

Lukas BergerEverest Scenic Mountain Flight by Fixed-Wing · Jun 2025

The same crews, year after year.

Our pilots and mountain guides fly these valleys full-time — not seasonal charters. Meet the people who'll be in the cockpit and on the ground.
