Is it hard to do the Everest Base Camp Helicopter Return Trek? 

An EBC journey that includes a helicopter return is easier than a standard trek. Since this journey combines a hike with a helicopter tour, returning to Lukla via trek will not be necessary. After taking a helicopter to Lukla from Gorakshep, you will take a standard flight back to Kathmandu. Because of the trail's rugged terrain and high rise, the first part of the trek might be difficult but the views are breathtaking. The helicopter journey back is comfortable and seamless.

Most trekkers choose to start early in the morning to see the stunning sunrise above Everest, which bathes the mountains in golden light. Others choose to start late in the day to watch the sunset.

The views from the top are simply breathtaking. Looking down from this location, you can see the Khumbu Glacier and Everest Base Camp. It makes you feel on top of the world. After reaching the summit of Kala Patthar, hikers typically return to Gorak Shep to prepare for the thrilling helicopter flight back to Kathmandu.

          What to Expect While Returning from Everest Base Camp in Helicopter to KTM

          The last day of the journey includes a helicopter ride from Gorakshep to Lukla. This flight will be exciting and provide a breathtaking view of the majestic Himalayas. You'll normally begin your helicopter journey in Gorak Shep or Kala Patthar, where you'll arrive after your trek to Kala Pattar.

          When the helicopter takes off, you'll see incredible landscapes with glaciers, alpine forests, and small towns tucked away in the valleys, as well as tall peaks like Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam. The flight lasts about 45 minutes to an hour, which makes the return faster and easier than walking back, which would take days.

          You'll land in Lukla, which is famous for its challenging landing, and the gorgeous Dudh Koshi River. From Lukla, you will fly back to Kathmandu on a regular flight. This is a unique and magnificent experience since you can see the Himalayas from above without having to walk all the way down.

          Frequently Asked Questions

          • Q1. What kind of accommodations are provided for Everest Base Camp Heli Return Trek?

            On the Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return, your safety and comfort are our top priorities, and we carefully selected your accommodations to enhance your experience. In Kathmandu, you'll stay in a comfortable 3-star hotel. This is the ideal area to unwind and rest before your adventure.

            Once on the path, you'll spend the most of your evenings in traditional teahouses. Teahouses are recognized for their simplicity, but we chose ones with clean rooms and kind staff so you may have a genuine Himalayan experience in comfort. The majority of the rooms are shared by two people, but if you're a couple or simply want your own space, we can get you a single room if you let us know ahead of time and if there are any available.

            Teahouses are essential components of travel, not merely someplace to sleep. You'll spend pleasant nights in the common dining areas with other hikers, sharing stories and getting to know one another better. This will give your journey greater meaning. It is critical to maintain things clean, and the teahouses we work with do exactly that.

            There are common bathrooms but they are clean, and the hot showers are also available after a long day on the route. As we climb from Everest Base Camp, accommodations become simpler, but it's all part of the trip. 

            Enjoy the simplicity of living while taking in the natural beauty of the Himalayas. Now that everything is taken care of, you can concentrate on completing the journey and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

          • Food is an important part of the hike, so make sure you bring enough for the whole day. As you start your trip in Kathmandu, you can try some of the city's delicious food, like momos, spicy curries, and Dal Bhat, a traditional Nepali dish made of beans, rice, and vegetables that becomes your favorite as the walk goes on.
            Along the way, teahouses offer one-of-a-kind dining experiences with stunning views of the Himalayas. You can get Tibetan bread, stews, spaghetti, sandwiches, pies, and Thukpa (noodle soup), among other things. A sweet treat after dinner is a wonderful way to relax after a long day.
            As you go up, there is less food to choose from, but our teahouse partners will still serve you delicious, healthy meals to keep you going. Some of the best parts of your helicopter return trip are Everest Base Camp's unique and tasty traditional meals.

          • Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS), or altitude sickness, is a real risk on the Everest Base Camp trek, even if you take a helicopter back. Careful acclimatization is needed to get above 17,000 feet, which is why our itinerary includes rest days to help your body get used to less air.

            Our trained guides know how to identify and treat the signs of altitude sickness, which keeps you safe during the journey. It's important to pay attention to your body and let others know if you feel discomfort. It's important to stay hydrated because being dehydrated can make AMS worse, so we'll keep telling you to drink lots of water. Also, to lower the risk of altitude sickness, we recommend a steady pace and lots of rest.

            The helicopter return gives you greater safety. Prevention is very important, and our responsible walking methods make sure that you can enjoy the trip to the fullest while staying safe and healthy.

          • You need travel insurance for the Everest lucury Helicopter Return trek because it takes place at a high level and in a remote area. Make sure your insurance covers high-altitude trekking (up to 6,000 meters) and includes emergency helicopter evacuation in the event of altitude sickness or other complications.

            The insurance should also cover hospital expenses, trip cancellations, and delays. Full coverage travel insurance provides peace of mind, allowing you to enjoy the hike knowing that you're insured for everything that may go wrong.

          • There is no set average daily gain for this one-way trek to Everest Base Camp. It depends on the path and schedule. It is possible for trekkers to gain 400 to 600 meters (1,300 to 2,000 feet) of height every day. This slow ascent helps the body get used to the higher elevation, which is important to avoid getting altitude sickness and makes the trek safer. People adapt to high elevation in different ways, so it's important to walk at your own pace and pay attention to your body.

            Here’s a table summarizing the elevation gains during the Everest base camp trek with helicopter return:

          • This trekking route follows the standard route through the Khumbu region. It starts with a flight to Lukla and continues with stops at well-known places like Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, Dingboche, and Gorak Shep on its way to Everest Base Camp and Kala Pattar. This path has been around for a long time, so it has nice facilities like teahouses and well-marked trails. The primary trek follows the traditional path. On acclimatization days at Namche and Dingboche, there will also be shorter hikes to Himalayan Everest Viewpoint (HEV) and Nangkartshang Peak. These will give trekkers stunning views of the surrounding peaks and a chance to get used to the higher elevation.

          • Helicopters usually land back at Gorak Shep, which is the last stop before reaching Everest Base Camp. The trekkers will then get on a helicopter for a scenic ride back to Lukla. From there, they will change planes and fly to Kathmandu. The helicopter ride from Gorak Shep to Lukla takes about 30 to 45 minutes and gives you beautiful views of the mountains and landscapes below.  After the trekking trip, the flight from Lukla to Kathmandu takes about 30 to 45 minutes and is a quick and beautiful way to get back home.

          • The number of guides and porters depends on the size of the group. Generally, we provide one experienced guide for 5 to 6 trekkers and a single porter for two shared hikes. This arrangement allows trekkers to concentrate on their journey while ensuring the swift and safe movement of their belongings. If you are traveling solo, then you will have a guide cum porter that will help you throughout the trek. This guide will assist you throughout the trek. However, if you desire a private guide or porter for yourself, please inform us during your booking process, and we will make the necessary arrangements.

          • In case of illness or injury, we will follow standard emergency procedures, which include analyzing the situation and deciding what the best thing to do is. Our guides are trained to deal with altitude sickness and other usual health problems that come up while trekking. If a serious problem appears, the hiker will be taken to a lower elevation or the closest hospital. If needed, helicopter rescue can be set up so that people can get to Lukla or Kathmandu quickly for more medical care.

Most people with average fitness can finish the walk as long as they plan ahead and take their time getting used to the altitude.

            Helicopter return trek to Everest Base Camp

            I've always wanted to trek to Everest Base Camp, but the prospect of hiking all the way back down made me feel overwhelmed. That's why the why the NTA helicopter return option worked so well! I had a terrific time during the hike. There were breathtaking views, tough trails, and the highlight: being at the base of the world's tallest peak.

            The helicopter journey back was really comfortable. When I arrived at Base Camp on Day 9 and saw how lovely Kala Patthar was the next morning, I was relieved I could fly back to Kathmandu rather than hike down.

            The helicopter provided us with stunning views of the Himalayas from above, which altered the entire experience. This is how you blend excitement with comfort! The NTA guides were excellent, and they always made sure we were prepared. The helicopter ride was the perfect way to wrap out a trip we'll never forget.

            Everest base camp trek with helicopter back for busy traveler

            Even though I've always liked to try new things, I didn't have time to spend three weeks trekking in the Himalayas because of my busy job. NTA came up with the perfect solution: an 11-day hike to Everest Base Camp with a helicopter ride back. I could do the standard trip—walk to Base Camp and then fly back—without having to make the long descent.

            There were many great parts of the trip, like the beautiful views of the Khumbu Valley and getting to Everest Base Camp on Day 9. But when we climbed Kala Patthar the next day, that's when we really felt happy. We didn't go back the way we came; instead, we got on a helicopter and went straight back to Kathmandu. The scenic flight gave me one last amazing view of Everest before I went back home. This trip with NTA is a dream come true for explorers who don't have a lot of time.
