Mountains have been one of the major identities of Nepal. When you think about Nepal – it is mostly trekking, climbing or Everest. All of these activities require more than one day, if by land. But a mountain flight in a clear morning will give insights of all the mountains at once.
Apart from Mountain flight – helicopter tours are even better for luxury holidays in Nepal.
Good morning flight will take you near to the towering mountains. Flight to the mountains will take off from Kathmandu airport. A small plane will take you in a sky safari in the sky mountains are taller than cloud lines. Video Gallery
What can you see in mountain flight in Nepal?
From the airport of Kathmandu – mountains can be seen from Tribuhuwan international airport itself. So when the flight takes off from the airport – you will be flying next to the mountains, almost all of them. You will fly next to Mt Annapurna, Mt Manaslu, Mt Langtang, Mount Everest and the entire range. Basically all the mountains that you can trek to their basecamps in Nepal.
You will be watching from the window of the plane – a small plane which can accommodate 10 – 14 people.
How much does it cost for mountain flight?
Mountain fight costs from USD 100 to 200. Mountain flight cost with Nepalgram starts from 120USD per person.

If you have ever used the domestic terminal of the airport in Kathmandu, you must have seen the announcement of Mountain flight departing in the early morning. Yes, those are the flights to the mountains. I personally thought about where this destination “Mountain” is, but that’s what you have to take for a mountain flight tour.

Mountain flight is the best morning activity for your leisure and fulfilling the desire to be close to the mountains. Keeping yourself in comfort, mountain flight will give an aerial view of the mountain landscape. It is also nice to look down to the scattered villages of rural Nepal.
