Mountain Flight in Nepal
We offer you a panoramic encounter with
the highest majestic Mountains on earth. The 16 seater comfortable
plane departs from Kathmandu and flies along side the Himalaya
to give you eye level views of the snow peaks and then brings
you in one hour. Cruising close to the awesome massifs of
rock and ice, the flight presents a mind -boggling sight.
When the plane takes off and heads towards
the east you will see Shisha Pangma, standing at the majestic
height of 8013m. With in a minute to the right of Gosiankund,
there appears Dorge Lakpa 6966m.To the right of Dorge Lakpa
is Phurbi Chyachu, which looms over the Kathmandu Valley.
As the plane glides along, the mountains
come closer and closer. Next the vision Is Choba Bhamare,
the smallest on of the lot at 5933m. Then appears the mountain
that is not only prominent in sight but also in spirituality
Gauri Shankar. Lord Shankar [Shiva] and his consort Gauri
are said to protect this mountain, at the proud height of
7134m. and summit had a history of unsuccessful attempts
till 1979. Gauri -Shankar is sharp and very conspicuous
during the mountain flight. As the plane moves toward the
land of the rising sun, the eastern Himalaya, a succession
of glorious mountains follow Melungtse, a plateau like mountain,
stretches up to 7023m. Chugimago at 6297mis still virgin,
waiting to be climbed. At 6956m. Numbur Mountain resembles
a breast, the maternal source in the sky providing pure
milk to the Sherpas of the Solukhumbu.
Next is Kayrolung, an intensely white mountain
that at 6511m. gleams with the rising sun. Cho-Oyu is the
sixth highest mountain in the world. Reaching a height of
8201m. It appears stunningly beautiful from the Aircraft.
Next in the menu is Gyachungkang, at the majestic height
of 7952m. Considered an extremely difficult climb. To the
Right of Gyachungkang is Pomori 7161m. As you get closer
to Everest there is Nuptse 7855m. Which means west peak,
signifying its direction From Everest. Finally there is
Mt. EVEREST 8848m. itself, known as Sagarmatha by the Nepalese
