Boarding and introduction of the pilot for the flight briefing
The pilots will go through some crucial safety precautions and things to avoid with you before the helicopter flight. Before boarding the aircraft, you will have an opportunity to meet each other and ask any questions you may have during the encounter. We strongly advise you to adhere to the pilots’ directions in order to ensure a safe flight.
Flight to Kyanjin Valley or Kyanjin Gompa
You will get a fascinating aerial view of the Kathmandu valley as the chopper takes off from the airport. The thrilling flight will take around 45 minutes until Kyanjin Gompa, which is hidden behind a ridge from the dispersed settlements that make up the village of Kyanjin, becomes apparent. You can still see the ruins of the Langtang airport when you land in the valley caused by the earthquake in 2015. Due to a lack of travelers and frequent landslides, the airport has been abandoned by the government.
Kyanjin Valley Tour Including a Visit to the Gompa and Cheese Factory
As soon as you go outside, a breathtaking aura of thin air fills your lungs with an incredible sense of height and adventure. The place is surrounded by Buddhist prayer flags. Kyanjin Gompa is more concerned with spirituality than aesthetics. Stones and wood are mostly used to construct the entrance to Kyanjin Gompa. The wall-mounted images of Lord Buddha convey tranquility and optimism. The Local Cheese Factory will be our next stop. Yak cheese made in the factory is fresh and organic, and it is shipped to several nations. It is one of the Kyanjin Valley’s spectacular vistas. After this, we get ready for our journey back to Kathmandu.
