Best Time to Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return

You might be confused about when to go for the Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return to experience the wonders of the Everest region and have the best trip in a short period.

For trekking in the High Himalayas, the best times are spring and autumn, which offer great visibility with stable and clear weather. Winter and Monsoon are low seasons, as the weather will be quite challenging with rain and snow showers.

Spring Season (March to May)

The season of newness is when the flowers and nature start to blossom. It’s the perfect time to embark on the journey to Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return. The weather will be stable and the sky is clear, providing the best visibility of Mighty Mt. Everest and other lofty mountains.

The temperature will be moderate, from 16 degrees to 23 degrees, at a high altitude during this time. You can experience the fresh greenery of nature and crystal clear blue skies with lofty mountains in the backdrop. Wow, what breathtaking vistas!

You will meet many other fellow trekkers on the way to Everest Base Camp (5364 m), as it is also the busiest season of the year; however, less crowded than the autumn season. April is a better month than the other months of the spring season.

It is the season of climbing Mighty Mt. Everest, so the trails get crowded with porters carrying expedition goods. Everest Base Camp will be decorated with many different colors of tents where climbers can acclimatize for the summit push to Mighty Mt.Everest.

Autumn (September to November)

The months of September, October, and November fall in the autumn season. It is the post-monsoon season with clear blue skies, green nature, and clear visibility of the surrounding mountains.

The weather will be stable, warm, and pleasant, with excellent daylight attracting thousands of trekkers from all over the world. It is the busiest season of the year as the trails and tea houses will be full of trekkers.

The beginning of the season until mid-September will be rainy due to the monsoon aftermath. It is the perfect time for the Everest Base Camp Trek with a Helicopter Return from the mid-September autumn season.

It is the best month of the autumn season. The greatest festival of Nepalese Dashain and Tihar falls this month. The whole country will be in a festive mood. You will have an enriching cultural experience along with a great trekking experience.

Monsoon (June to July)

It's that time of year that experiences heavy rainfall in Nepal. The months of June, July, and August experience rainfall mostly in the morning and at night. The days will be cloudy, hiding the mountains behind them. However, the view after the rainfall will be heaven to the eye.

The trekking trails will be muddy and slippery, so it’s quite challenging to walk. You need to be cautious when walking. The leeches and mosquitoes will cause problems, too. There is a high chance of landslides and avalanches during the trek.

The weather won’t be stable and clear, causing poor visibility and rainfall. So, helicopter operation is also risky and challenging during this season.

Winter (December to February)

The cold season begins in December and ends in February. The weather will be dry and cold, with snowfall at higher elevations. Temperatures will be at freezing levels at night at higher altitudes, like the Everest region.

The weather will be challenging due to the bitter cold and snowfall. So there will be less number of trekkers on the trekking trails. You can have a serene and peaceful trekking experience if you trek during winter.

However, the operation of helicopters is risky as there is a high risk of snowfall in the high Himalayas.

Can We Take a Helicopter to and Return from Everest Base Camp?

The 11-day Short Everest Base Camp with Helicopter Return starts with an exhilarating flight to Lukla –the  Gateway to Everest. Then, you will hike through Sherpa villages like Phakding, Namche Bazaar, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, and Gorakshep. You can hike to Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar to view the awe-inspiring vistas of Mighty Mt.Everest and other lofty mountains.

You will follow the same classical trekking routes to Everest Base Camp. However, you won’t fly out from Everest Base Camp. On the last day after the morning hike to Kala Patthar, you will descend to Gorakshep, have your breakfast then you will be flying out from Gorakshep to Kathmandu, enjoying the bird’s eye view of the High Mountains, glaciers, Sherpa Settlements, hanging bridges, and lush forests of the Khumbu region.

You can’t fly directly from Everest Base Camp as it is located at an altitude of 5,364 m, and because of the difficult terrain conditions, the helicopter can’t be operated. Only in emergency cases and during the climbing season can the helicopter be operated. You will fly from Gorakshep to Kathmandu, escaping the trodden trekking trails down to Lukla.

Why Everest Base Camp with Helicopter Return Trek?

Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return is ideal for trekkers dreaming of hiking to Everest Base Camp for a shorter duration. The Classic Trek to base camp is usually about 13 to 15 days. It is a round trek covering a distance of 130 km.

Trek to Everest base camp with Helicopter Return is shorter, offering more adventure than the traditional EBC Trek. You can enjoy the majestic close-up view of Mighty Mt.Everest from Kala Patthar. However, descend to Kathmandu by helicopter ride from Gorakshep, escaping the trodden trekking trails to Lukla. Please avoid 2 to 3 days of strenuous descent to Lukla; hence, you will have a less strenuous trekking experience than other trekkers.

The Helicopter ride saves you time and energy, providing you bird’s eye view of Mighty Mt. Everest with other high mountains and the Khumbu region. Your trek to Everest Base Camp will be comfortable and less physically demanding as you fly from Gorakshep to Kathmandu. The EBC Trek with Helicopter Return Cost accommodates trekking, Classical EBC trails, and thrilling helicopter rides. You can enjoy the experience of both trekking in and flying out of the Everest Base Camp Trek with Helicopter Return Packages. Your trek to Everest Base Camp will be unique and different from others, am I right?

How Difficult is the Everest Base Camp with Helicopter Return Trek?

EBC Hiking is physically demanding as it requires you to hike for 5 to 7 hours every day in the Himalayan terrain. However, if you start preparing before the start of the trek, then it won’t be that hard.

You should prepare by performing activities such as exercises, cycling, and multiple-day hiking, carrying a certain weight backpack, as you will carry your day bag by yourself. Mentally, you should make yourself strong so that you can make it to the Everest Base Camp and enjoy the close-up view from Kala Patthar, the highest altitude of the EBC Trek – 5,545 m.

Here, the main problem is Altitude Sickness. Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) is an illness caused by a low level of oxygen in your blood as you ascend higher; as the oxygen level goes down, you might be vulnerable to Altitude Sickness. You can avoid altitude sickness by following these preventive measures:

  • Maintain a slow and steady pace of walking with frequent small breaks.
  • Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated along the trekking trails.
  • A balanced diet should be consumed.
  • Avoid the intake of alcohol, cigarettes, and junk foods.
  • Proper acclimatization is the most effective remedy for AMS.

How Many Nights Do We Stay in the Mountains During the EBC with Helicopter Return Trek?

Everest Base Camp with Helicopter Return Trek is an 11-day package. Your first day will be arriving in Kathmandu, and flying to Lukla on the second day. Then you trek gradually towards the final destination, Everest Base Camp, passing through the Sherpa villages like Phakding, Namche – a Trade Hub of the Khumbu region, Tengboche, Dingboche, Lobuche, and Gorakshep, respectively. On the tenth day, you will fly back directly to Kathmandu.

So, the total number of nights you will stay in the mountains is 9. You will be staying in Kathmandu for two nights. That is the arrival day and the day before the departure to your home country. On the 11th day, you will be back home, missing the mountains and Nepal.

You will have the best accommodations with two beds along with a good quality mattress, warm blanket, and soft pillow, so that you can have quality sleep and good nights in the high Himalayas of Nepal.
