Mt Everest by Helicopter

An exciting Mt Everest tour

1-Kala Patthar (5,545 meters)
Kala Patthar means “black rock” in the local Nepali language. It lies on the southern ridge of Mt. Pumori and just above the Gorakshep. It is one of the best vantage points in the Khumbu region, from where you will behold Mount Everest in the closest distance. It stands at 5,600 meters from sea level. Many trekkers stay at Grokashep before and after the base camp visit. The view from here is awe-inspiring, including the ultimate view of the Everest summit and many surrounding mountains like Mt. Pumori, Nuptse, Changtse, and Lhotse. Indeed, it is one of the most outstanding panoramas that you will ever experience!
