Helambu Valley Tour

Helambu, like many other places in the country, is also a valley. This helicopter flight to Helambu is more of a cultural tour, rather than core mountain adventure. It will take you to exhilarating locations amid the mountains in its most dedicated form – right into the heart of the Sherpas. Needless to say, the Sherpa are some of the toughest people in the world, who are known as “Tigers of the snow”. Your helicopter lands in the premises of a pristine monastery called Tarkeyghyang. Immediately, you will begin to get overwhelmed by the smell and sight of rhododendron forests, superb mountain views and picturesque Sherpa settlements. A quick greeting from friendly people will ready you for the exploration of unspoiled culture of the area. Although the people are called by the common name Sherpa, their culture is extremely diverse – one that will leave you baffled and enriched, even at the remotest habitation in the world.
