칼라 파타르 헬리콥터 투어를 포함한 에베레스트 전망 트레킹

Weather Month-to-Month and Best Season 

Weather in the Everest region changes rapidly, especially at higher altitudes. While the table below is a general guideline, mountain conditions can vary from year to year.

October and November are also good times to do the Everest View Trek with a Kala Patthar Helicopter Tour, as the weather is dry and mountain visibility is often high. March, April and early May are also good months.

Autumn and spring are considered good seasons for trekking in the Everest region, according to the Nepal Tourism Board. Clear skies can occur during winter as well, though at higher altitudes, the weather will be much cooler.

경로 및 고도

The walk is a mixture of short days and helicopter trips. The trip starts in Kathmandu and continues via helicopter to Lukla. The trekking part of the journey from Lukla to Namche Bazaar is through the village of Phakding.

The walk passes through forests, suspension bridges and Sherpa villages, heading along the Dudh Koshi Valley. The most challenging part of the journey is a climb up to the Kala Patthar (5,545 m, 18,192 ft).

The final leg of the trek is by helicopter, not on foot (as is typical of an EBC trek), so the itinerary is also different.

음식과 숙박 

Accommodation during the trekking part is usually in local mountain lodges. Rooms are generally plain and simple, and often twin sharing is offered. The further into the mountains you head, the more rudimentary the facilities are.

Typically, trekking days include breakfast, lunch and dinner. Typical foods include dal bhat, noodles, rice, pasta, potatoes, soups, vegetables, eggs, bread, and simple local/continental dishes.

Regular eating and drinking sufficient fluids are important at higher altitudes. On long walking days, warm soups or carbohydrate-based meals are good.

In Kathmandu, rooms are booked at a hotel as per the package. You can get help arranging your accommodation and meals with your Everest Trip package.

고산병

Anyone who climbs rapidly to high altitudes can develop altitude sickness. The danger increases above Namche Bazaar and is especially significant during the helicopter flight to Kala Patthar at 5,545 m (18,192 ft).

Common symptoms are headaches, fatigue, dizziness, loss of appetite, nausea, and insomnia.

중요한 예방 조치:

• Walk at a comfortable pace and avoid unnecessary exertion.
• Consume a regular amount of water, but avoid overdrinking.
• Don’t drink at elevated altitudes.
• If you’re not feeling well, let your guide know right away.
• If symptoms worsen, do not continue up.
• If symptoms are serious, go down and get medical assistance.

The acclimatization day for Namche is meant to help you adjust to the high-altitude helicopter excursion. Your guide can also help you determine whether you can proceed.

비자 및 허가 

Foreign nationals must have a valid Nepal tourist visa, with exceptions. Currently, Nepal offers tourist visas on arrival at Tribhuvan International Airport to eligible tourists and Nepalese diplomatic missions, and the official online system also provides tourist visas. Official tourist visa fees are USD 30, USD 50, and USD 125 for 15 days, 30 days, and 90 days, respectively.

The package includes trekking arrangements and permits for this trek. The Everest region requires a Sagarmatha National Park entry permit, and the Nepal Tourism Board lists treks in the Everest region that require a Khumbu Rural Municipality Permit and a licensed guide, including the Everest View Trek.

My Everest Trip will issue the required trekking permits and complete all paperwork included in your package. Unless stated in your package, your personal tourist visa is always yours.

건강과 안전

However, safety is crucial for the entire journey, given the mountains involved and the helicopter’s high-altitude landing point. Weather can change quickly, so the helicopter schedule may sometimes need to be adjusted.

기억해야 할 몇 가지 사항은 다음과 같습니다.

• Follow your guide’s instructions on the trek.
• Use appropriate footwear with good traction.
• Bring warm clothes even when it’s warm in Kathmandu!
• Have personal medications readily available.
• Let the guide know of any medical issues beforehand.
• Take plenty of water and take frequent breaks.
• Obey all instructions given by the crew of the helicopter while boarding and landing.
• Do not approach or move around a helicopter unless told to do so.

The final helicopter flight will be subject to safe flight conditions. The operator may amend the schedule if the planned flight is delayed or changed for safety reasons due to weather.

운송 

This trip starts with a car transfer between the airport and your hotel in Kathmandu. The trekking part begins with a flight to Lukla from Kathmandu in a helicopter.

From Lukla, you hike to Phakding, then on to Namche Bazaar. The path follows existing hiking tracks, suspension bridges and village paths.

The return trip involves a helicopter flight from the Everest region to Kala Patthar, then onward to Kathmandu. This depends on aircraft operations, aviation safety requirements, and the weather.

According to the Nepal Tourism Board, you can fly to the Everest region, and the flight from Kathmandu to 루크 라 약 30분 정도 소요됩니다.

The organized transfers and helicopter transport included in the package are organized by My Everest Trip.

여행 보험

We strongly recommend travel insurance for the trip. Your policy should cover the highest altitude you will reach at Kala Patthar (5,545 m / 18,192 ft).

Ensure that the policy includes emergency medical treatment, evacuation, and trip interruption (as appropriate). A key consideration for helicopter evacuation coverage is the cost of rescuing victims in remote mountain locations.

Don’t travel without reading the policy; you don’t know what is covered. Certain insurance companies may have altitude restrictions or limitations on adventure activities.

Take a hard copy and digital copy of your insurance policy information. Make your insurance company name and policy number readily available.

Insurance should cover individual travel needs and is typically arranged before travel.

추가 비용

The services outlined under the inclusions are covered in the package. It’s also advisable to bring extra cash for personal needs during the trip.

Additional costs that can be expected to include:

• 네팔 관광 비자 수수료
• 개인 간식 및 음료
• Bottled or filtered drinking water where not included
• Warm showers in accommodation at the trekking lodges
• 전자 기기 충전
• Where Wi Fi is available, it is provided.
• Personal telephone expenses
• 세탁
• 여행 보험
• Advice to Guides and Porter and other staff members
• 기념품 및 개인 쇼핑
• More room needed due to delays

It is advisable to have a few Nepalese rupees as the payment facilities become less reliable as you venture deeper into the Everest region.

언어 및 커뮤니케이션

Nepali is the primary language of Nepal; the other local language spoken in the Everest region is Sherpa. English is widely used in tourism among guides, lodge staff, and people working with trekking groups.

During the journey, communication is easy. Your guide can help with your hotel accommodations, meals, transport, and more.

Some parts of the Everest region have mobile network coverage, but it isn’t always reliable. Some lodges also have internet access (subscription may depend on the site and weather).

Before leaving Kathmandu, download important documents, maps, and travel information to your phone. Keep your phone charged, especially for trekking days and the helicopter excursion.

이 여행에서 하지 말아야 할 일 

A few basic precautions can make the trip safer and more pleasant for everyone.

Take care not to:

• Do not ignore symptoms of altitude sickness.
• Walk slowly when going uphill.
• Avoid overdrinking at high elevations.
• Don’t litter on the trail.
• Respect local places of worship or prayer.
• When privacy is required, don’t photograph people without their consent.
• Do not trespass on restricted areas without permission.
• Never approach a helicopter without the crew’s instructions.
• Do not fly a drone without obtaining the required permissions.
• Never leave valuables.

One of the key aspects of traveling in the Khumbu region is to respect the local communities. This helps the group move safely through the trails and helicopter landing areas by following your guide’s instructions.

여행 연장

You can do this before or after the trek, depending on your available time. You can explore more of Kathmandu’s culture, and you’ll find options for a longer Nepal holiday nearby.

Popular extensions include Pokhara, Chitwan National Park, Lumbini, or shorter hikes in the 카트만두 계곡.

For those who want to spend more time in the Everest region, a longer trekking itinerary is also an option instead of returning to Kathmandu after the helicopter tour. This will depend on your interests, available days, and physical preparation.

When asked, My Everest Trip can arrange for extra hotel nights, transport, sightseeing and other services to make your trip more enjoyable.

If you’re traveling a couple of days after the trek, you may also be able to add a few days to your experience in Nepal, as it may give you some flexibility if there are changes to the helicopter schedule due to the weather in the mountains.

사진 및 드론 규칙 

The trek encourages photography, and you will have opportunities to photograph mountain landscapes, villages, suspension bridges, and Himalayan peaks. Respect people, their religion, and private space when taking photographs.

There is more complexity with the use of drones. Foreign nationals planning to fly a drone in Nepal must get temporary drone registration from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal’s Flight Safety Standards Department. Applicants must bring the drone for inspection and provide documents such as a valid passport, a Nepal visa, and an operations proposal, says CAAN.

Additional permissions and clearances may also be needed, depending on the location and operation. Security and other relevant clearances are included in the requirements published by CAAN.

Please do not assume you can fly your drone freely in the Everest area.

처음 방문하는 분들을 위한 팁 

First-timers should be ready for changes in weather, terrain, and travel. For many reasonably fit riders, the walking days aren’t too difficult, but don’t underestimate the effects of altitude.

Wear comfortable trekking shoes and pack layers you can add or remove as temperatures change. Bring a warm jacket, gloves and a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen and a waterproof jacket.

Store your passport, insurance, medication, and critical documents in a safe, easy-to-reach place. Take some cash with you as services may be limited in the mountains, especially in Nepal.

Follow your guide and embrace the acclimatization day. The helicopter trip to Kala Patthar (5545m /18192 ft), though you are not hiking up to that height, is still an experience of thin air and cold temperatures, and a quick trip to the top.

It is also a good idea to be flexible, as the weather in the mountains can affect helicopter operations.
