Wonderful Muktinath Helicopter Tour is a lifetime flight journey to the religious and holy temple of Hindus and Buddhists. Dedicated to the Hindu supreme god “ Lord Vishnu”. This temple resides at an elevation 3,710m on the lap of snow-capped mountain peaks of Thorong La Pass (part of great Himalayas).
Tour around Muktinath Temple is a major part of the popular Annapurna Circuit Trek. Thus, Muktinath Helicopter Tour is among the highly popular and recommended helicopter tours in Nepal.
In Nepal, Muktinath Helicopter Tour is quite famous among domestic and international tourists. Besides that, thousands of religious people (Hindus and Buddhists) from all over the world visit this place for “Salvation”.
Roadway to Muktinath is time-consuming and difficult. For those who want an easy and short journey, the Muktinath helicopter tour ( or Muktinath Yatra helicopter tour) is the best choice. This helicopter trip to Muktinath temples is even suitable for elders, children and physically disabled people.
Helicopter tour around Muktinath offers divine holy temple experiences, exceptionally beautiful mountain peaks of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, Machhapuchhree and many more.
Basically, Muktinath Helicopter Tour with landing starts either from Kathmandu or Pokhara. So, if you are in Kathmandu then you take an early flight to Pokhara which is 25 minutes flight trip. From Pokhara, we start our Muktinath Yatra helicoptertour which takes 1 and a half hours to reach the holy temple.
Besides Muktinath temple, there is a beautiful religious lake of Damodar also called Damodar Kunda. This lake resides at an altitude of 5,400m on the lap of the great Himalayan range. Damodar Kunda(lake) has a rich ancient religious history and famous for its water which is believed to cleanse all the sins of humans. Reaching this lake is possible through the Damodar Kunda helicopter tour.
Pilgrims who visit Muktinath by helicopter also visit Damodar Kunda. Hence, called the Muktinath Damodar helicopter tour. Damodar Helicopter tour with landing at Damodar lake offers great views of Annapurna, Dhaulagiri,Himchuli, and Muktinath Himal. More than 65 peaks lie in this region.
Best Time for Muktinath Helicopter Tour
Helicopter tours in Nepal are all season tour services in Nepal. The only difference is that some seasons are peak and crowded whereas some are not. In Nepal, there are 4 seasons: Summer/Monsoon, Autumn, Winter, and Spring.
Among them, spring and autumn are the best seasons for Muktinath Helicopter tour whereas winter and monsoon are the least or off-season of the year.
March-May and September-November are the best time of the year for the Muktinath tour as the weather is clear offering a clean and wide view of great Himalayas, drylands, villages, temples and more.
December-February and June-August are the least favorite time to visit Muktinath and Damodar. During the winter season, the temperature is freezing cold which makes traveling very difficult and cold mist blocks the mountain views and scenery. While in monsoon season, there is frequent rainfall, storms, strong winds which makes flight trip risky and rain clouds blurs the views and scenery of the surrounding area.
