Gosainkunda Heli Tour

Overview & Highlights

    Embark on a sacred journey with Annapurna Encounter’s Gosainkunda Helicopter Tour, a high-altitude spiritual adventure that combines Himalayan beauty, ancient legend, and divine tranquility. This short but majestic Gosainkunda Heli ride whisks you from Kathmandu to the pristine alpine lake of Gosaikunda, nestled at 4,380 meters in the Langtang National Park.

    Steeped in mythology, Gosainkunda is believed to be the lake Lord Shiva created by striking his trident to quench his cosmic thirst. Today, it is one of Nepal’s most sacred pilgrimage sites, especially during Janai Purnima, when thousands take a holy dip in its icy, purifying waters.

    Within just 30 minutes of flight time, you’ll rise above the Kathmandu Valley and glide past lush hills, remote villages, and towering Himalayan peaks like Langtang Lirung, Ganesh Himal, and Dorje Lakpa. This Gosaikunda helicopter ride includes 45 minutes of ground time, allowing you to explore the lake, take photos, and even bathe.

    Perfect for pilgrims, spiritual travelers, photographers, and luxury seekers, this Gosaikunda Heli package saves days of trekking while offering the same divine experience. Whether you're flying solo or with a group, this tour guarantees panoramic windows, safe altitude support, and seamless service from Annapurna Encounter.
