Helicopter Trek Connection

Fly in to a remote trek end-point. Walk the part that matters. Fly out.

A helicopter trek connection in Bhutan is for travellers short on time who still want the destination. Jomolhari Base Camp, Bumdra Monastery and the highlands of Soe are all reachable this way, without the multi day approach hike.

How it works

We fly you in to a remote trek end point. You walk the part that matters, and we fly you out. The view is the same. What you save is your time, not your knees.

How long it takes

The experience takes half a day to a full day, depending on the place you choose and the weather.

When to go

March to May and September to November are the best months. Cloud can delay or cancel a flight at any time, so keep a spare day in the plan.

Who it suits

It suits travellers with a short stay, guests who want the mountains without a long trek, and anyone whose legs would not manage the full approach. You still need to be comfortable walking at high altitude. The air is thin, so tell us about any health concerns when you book.

Booking

Helicopter flights must be arranged well in advance. We take care of the booking. Add the trek connection to your journey and Kinley will design and price it within twenty four hours.
