Trip Overview
The Everest Base Camp trek with helicopter return is not much different from the Everest Base Camp 17-day trek. The only difference is upon reaching Kala Patthar peak (5,545 m.), the highest point of this trek, you will take a helicopter flight to Kathmandu instead of trekking back to Lukla (2,846m.) and flying commercial. You will avoid 2 to 3 days of exhausting descent and complete the Everest base camp trek in 13 days. The helicopter flight at the end of the trek makes the journey much more adventurous and lets you behold breathtaking Aerial Mountain landscapes, which very few travelers get to enjoy. Himalayan High Path Adventure, welcomes people of all ages and backgrounds to join us on this adventurous trek to the low-key top of the world.
You will experience the Sherpa culture, tradition, and mountains and reach the Everest base camp (5,364 m), the highest mountain in the world, the trek offers a life-changing experience. Leaving the modern comfort behind, you will embark on an adventure of a lifetime amidst towering Himalayan Mountains, deep river valleys, hanging suspension bridges, lush rhododendron forests, steep farming fields, small settlements, rushing rivers, narrow streams, cascading waterfalls, or rocky gorges. At every turn, you will be surprised by spectacular landscapes and mountain vistas.
