Preparation for Luxury Everest Heli Trek

  • Physical fitness

Despite the use of helicopters, the Luxury Everest Heli Trek still requires a certain level of physical fitness. Travelers should be able to walk for several hours each day on uneven terrain at high altitudes. It is important to start training for the trek a month in advance.

Some specific exercises that travelers can do to prepare for the trek include:

  • Hiking: Hiking on uneven terrain is the best way to train for the trek. Travelers should aim to hike for several hours each week on hills or trails.
  • Strength training: Strength training exercises can help to strengthen the muscles that are used for walking and hiking. Travelers should focus on exercises that target the legs, hips, and core.
  • Cardio: Cardio exercises can help to improve cardiovascular fitness and endurance. Travelers should aim to do at least 30 minutes of cardio exercise most days of the week.
  • Acclimatization

Altitude sickness is a serious risk on any trek in the Everest region. It is important to acclimatize properly to avoid altitude sickness. Travelers should start acclimatizing by spending a few days at lower altitudes before ascending to higher altitudes.

Travelers can acclimatize by:

  • Spending a few days at Lukla (2,860 meters) before ascending to higher altitudes.
  • Take a rest day at Namche Bazaar (3,440 meters) to acclimatize before continuing the trek.
  • Acclimatizing to higher altitudes by taking short walks and spending time in the open air.
  • Trekking Insurance

Travelers should purchase trekking insurance that covers both medical expenses and high-altitude evacuation costs. Trekking insurance is essential in case of an emergency.

  • Other Important Preparations

In addition to physical fitness and acclimatization, travelers should also make the following preparations for the Luxury Everest Heli Trek:

  • Pack Appropriate Clothing and Gear. Travelers should pack warm clothing for cold temperatures, rain gear for wet weather, and sunscreen for sunny days. Travelers should also pack trekking poles, a headlamp, and a first-aid kit.
  • Book Flights and Accommodation in Advance. Flights and accommodations can fill up quickly, especially during peak seasons i.e., spring and autumn. Travelers should book their flights and accommodation at least six months in advance.
  • Research the trek and your guide company. Travelers should research the trek and their guide company to make sure that they are comfortable with the itinerary and the level of service that will be provided

Luxury Everest Heli Trek - 6 Days

With views of the Himalayas and the terraced valley floor, the flight into the Kathmandu Valley is stunning. One of our employees will meet you at Tribhuvan International Airport and drive you to your accommodation after your arrival.

Your ability to tour the city will depend on your arrival time. Among the well-known attractions in the Kathmandu Valley are the Durbar Square and its winding lanes filled with quaint stores, historic temples, and neighborhood eateries. There is also Swayambhunath Temple, from where you may observe the Himalayas to your north and the setting sun over the valley. Join our Kathmandu City Sightseeing Tour if you're eager to discover more about the Kathmandu Valley.

You should eat your first meal in Thamel, a popular tourist destination, where there are many restaurants to select from serving both Western and native Nepali cuisine. Then, if it is still possible, proceed to Asan Tole, the busiest market in the city, where you can find a genuine collection of spice, seafood, and vegetable stands that make for fantastic photo opportunities. Chat with welcoming locals while practicing a few basic Nepali phrases!

Following breakfast, you will fly domestically from Kathmandu to Lukla, where your Luxury Everest Heli Trek will begin. On clear days, the Himalaya is clearly visible as the airplane crosses across valleys and over mountains. However, the Lukla flight is currently being redirected to Ramechhap's Manthali airstrip, which would require a 3–4 hour drive from Kathmandu. We can arrange a helicopter flight from Kathmandu to Lukla if you want to avoid this detour or don't want to land at the most hazardous airport in the world.

After that, you'll journey a short distance through nearby settlements, where you can run into other hikers, villagers, and yaks with tinkling bells. It is planned for the first day to be easy to give you time to adjust to the higher elevation. On a clearly indicated trail, continue into the Dudh Koshi Valley and spend the night in Phakding.
