Important Notice and Recommendation for 5 Days Annapurna Base Camp Trek & Fly out by Helicopter

The climate is subject to change at high altitudes so climates in Nepal (Annapurna region), may impact your flight takes offs. The flights may be delayed or postponed too. In such a case, be prepared to spend some more time than the estimated days. Due to uncertain weather changes (even in peak seasons), the flight can be canceled or postponed; hence, for that, make your mentality to spare 2 to 3 days on a whole tour. If you want to wait for the weather to be cleared then you can obviously do so.

For that, staying in the ABC region and food cost becomes additional. But, in case of such extreme hindrance, there can be the need for descending the trail for 2 or 3 days, reaching the roadway, and taking road transportation. It may bring change in your both international and domestic flights too. So, don’t make a tight schedule for this and any tours in Nepal. In such an unpredictable case of walking downward, the cost of meals and accommodation, and guide costs will be covered by the company. But the helicopter flight’s cost won’t be refunded. In such a case, we will remake the itinerary which goes like this:

Pokhara - Jhinu - Bamboo - Deurali - Annapurna Base Camp - Bamboo - Jhinu Danda - Pokhara

Instead,

Pokhara - Jhinu - Bamboo - Deurali - Annapurna Base Camp - Pokhara (via helicopter)

              Annapurna Base Camp Heli Return Trek-5 days

              As a solo traveler, I was looking for an adventure that would allow me to explore the beauty of the Himalayas, and that's when I found out about the Annapurna base camp heli return trek. I joined a group organized by NTA and started the trek from Nayapul. It was a challenging but rewarding experience, with stunning mountain views that made every step worth it. The group was great, and we had fun bonding with each other during the trek. On the last day, we returned to Pokhara via helicopter, which was an amazing way to end the journey. I'm so glad I took this trek and grateful to NTA for organizing it.

              Annapurna base camp heli return trek

              When I was planning my solo trip to the mountains, I knew I wanted to do a trek, but I didn't have enough time for a long one. That's when I stumbled upon the Annapurna base camp heli return trek recommended by NTA. It was a 5-day trek that would allow me to experience the beauty of the mountains without taking too much time away from my schedule.

              I joined a group of fellow trekkers and we started our journey from Nayapul. The trek was challenging, but the stunning views of the mountains made it worth it. It was great to meet new people and share the experience with them. We laughed, talked, and enjoyed each other's company as we hiked towards the Annapurna base camp.

              On the last day, we returned to Pokhara via helicopter, and the aerial view of the mountains was simply breathtaking. It was the perfect end to an amazing trek. I am so grateful to NTA for suggesting this trek and giving me the opportunity to meet new people and experience the beauty of the mountains.
