Mt. Everest, located in the Khumbu region bordering Tibet,
is known as the "Sagarmatha" Head of the Sky in Nepal. The
Sherpas and Tibetans worship it as "Chomolongma" Mother
Goddess of the Earth. At an altitude of 8,848 meters, it is
called the "Top of the World", or the "Third Pole" because
it is the highest peak in the world. The Everest region is
an area of huge beauty for nature and adventure. With the
magnificent snow-covered peaks, and with some of the rare
wildlife and immense beautiful forests and valleys, this
region is a famous destination for trekking and other
adventure such as the Expedition and Peak Climbing.
Competitive commercial and adventurous mountaineering took
off following the first successful ascent of Tenzing Norgay
and Sir Edmund Hillary on the mountain in late May 1953.
Since then many successful climbs have been mounted on
Everest from various directions. To fly over this area and
around Mt. Everest is a truly a magnificent sight which
people love to do in the lifetime!

domestic airport daily and flies alongside the Himalayas to
give you eye-level view of the snow peaks and then bring you
back in an hour. It is also possible to arrange the mountain
flight from Pokhara but we need 16 people who may do the
same time and date and also possible to land it in Kathmandu
or Pokhara after your an hour mountain flight but true is
that you have to pay for the flight which you use i.e.
either Pokhara / Kathmandu or Kathmandu / Pokhara vv.
We hope you already read much more about the Mt. Everest
because it has already been written in the guidebooks i.e.
Lonely Planet and other website too. But, actually
eyewitness is that when you do it face to face during your

felling about the air adventure.
