One of the most loved and affordable mountain flights out of Pokhara: around 20 minutes in the air takes you from the lakeside streets to the heart of the Annapurna Sanctuary at 4,130m. The route unfolds deep valleys, terraced fields, waterfalls and villages before the massive walls of Annapurna and Machhapuchhre (Fishtail) fill the windscreen, followed by a landing at Annapurna Base Camp itself.
Pokhara → Annapurna Base Camp (by helicopter) → Pokhara.
Pickup from your Pokhara hotel and transfer to the airport for the short helicopter flight to Annapurna Base Camp (4,130m), with a landing and time to take in the 360° mountain panorama before flying back to Pokhara the same day.
This trip runs on a customizable, on-request basis — choose your own start date and we'll build the group and logistics around it.
Pokhara → Annapurna Base Camp (by helicopter) → Pokhara.
