Off the compelling reasons to visit Nepal, the mountains may rank on the top for most visitors. In clear weather, which is frequent enough all the year round except in summer, some of the central Himalaya can be seen from Kathmandu itself. Or else, you can drive out to a ridge top of one of the hills standing sentinel around the valley, where magnificent views can be had. But for close and truly dramatic views of a wide stretch of the Himalayas, the mountain flight is unbeatable. The mountain flights is Royal Nepal Airlines, hour long ride, mostly by Boeing 725,sometimes by the pressurized 44 seater hawker, siddeley AVRO 748,operated once or more times a day in season (all year except summer) when the weather is clear. The aircraft flies at about 8,000 meters for about 100 miles east of Kathmandu, turning around about 15 miles from the Eastern Himalayas you will see most of the eight 8,000 meters peaks, there are 14 of them in the world that fall within Nepal ,including Sagarmatha or Everest, Cho Oyu, Lhotse and Makalu.
A great experience ! The most – see landmark of Nepal : Mt. Everest. A spectacular mountain flight coming face to face with the majestic peak Mt. Everest and many other mountain ranges. This flight makes you able to feel the mountains at the best. People who can not go for trekking or only have a short time also can experience the grandeur of Himalayas.
