Annapurna Helicopter Sightseeing Introduction

Annapurna Base Camp is one of the most demanded tourist destinations in Nepal. Every year many tourists visit Nepal to visit Annapurna Base Camp either by trekking or by helicopter route.
Annapurna Base Camp is located in the central part of Nepal at an altitude of 4,130m. All the Annapurna Ranges are above 7000 meters. From Annapurna Base Camp, you will be able to have a mesmerizing view of Fishtail (Machhapuchhre), Himalchuli, Annapurna South, Annapurna-I, etc. This is one of the authentic trekking destinations loved by trekkers. The route to Annapurna is full of beautiful sceneries, rhododendron forests, a view of snow-capped mountain peaks, etc.

Annapurna Base Camp lies 40 km north of Pokhara. The city of lake Pokhara is also famous for its touristic vibes. Spending time in Pokhara is a cup of tea for the tourists as there are lots of interesting places to visit here. You will be staying in the lakeside hotel of Pokhara.

The Heli tour starts from the Pokhara Domestic Airport; the helicopter will be waiting for you. You will be flying to Annapurna Base Camp with a spectacular view of Pokhara valley, settlements, landscapes, Gandaki Gorge, and mountain ranges.
