Indicative: these are fares operators have published, not a quote. Your price comes from the quotes the desk collects, and nothing is charged until a specific quote is accepted. Usually flown in Airbus AS350 B3e and Bell 407GXi-class helicopters.

Langtang is the nearest true mountain valley to Kathmandu and the quietest of the big three trekking regions since the 2015 earthquake. The flight lands at Kyanjin Gompa, where there is time for tea and a walk to the yak cheese factory.

## Highlights

- Land at Kyanjin Gompa, 3,870 m
- Langtang Lirung close aboard
- Under an hour from Kathmandu each way

## Good to know

- Good option when Everest weather is closed
- Cooler than the Annapurna routes year-round
