Heli Skiing Nepal

Heli Ski NepalMassive mountains with some of the highest vertical rises in the world...views of large expanses of blanketed, untouched snow...and plenty of it...THIS...is the Himalaya...welcome to the runs of a lifetime...heli skiing Nepal!

A word of caution...

If you've spent as much time online as we have researching heli skiing operations all over the globe, you'll certainly discover a lot of vague information about distant heli skiing destinations and search results from entities that claim they can facilitate your ski trip. A search for heli skiing information in Chile will yield similar results.

This search experience begs the question...

What REALLY defines a "company" as a legitimate heli skiing operator?  What REALLY IS a heli skiing operator or company? We think you'll find our examination regarding some heli skiing operations and online search results as thought provoking.

That said, if you're browsing online, you've discovered us, and you'll certainly discover some or all of we have consolidated below about the opportunities to heliski Nepal.

Operators & Agents That May Assist Heli Skiing Trips to Nepal

In the more than 125 heli skiing operator locations that we cover on this site, the information regarding opportunities to ski in Nepal appears to be the least credible (with underlying substance), than anywhere on the planet. Here's our synthesis of the data online:

Heli Skiing Operators

  • Heliski Consultants
    Package Options:  Semi-private and private.
    Terrain/Mountain Range: the Annapurna, the Everest and the Humla (Jumla) regions.
    Although their home page bio uses the above name, their title at the top of their site says, "Heliski Consultants LTD."
    The home page also claims they are the first and only operator in Nepal. And they have a operating history since 2001.
    We provide this operator their own page (as we do throughout our site), because their online presence appears to be substantive for Nepal heli skiing.

Agents & "Partners"

  • EA Heli Skiing
    We at heli-skier have spent a considerable amount of time on their site. We like what we see. We have also verified them as a valued booking agent for Arctic Heli Skiing, an operation where we have very much enjoyed skiing! We find EA Heli Skiing's market position very credible, although we have no experience with them.
  • Himalayan Heli
    This clearly appears to be a bonafide helicopter services company, which seems to offer heli skiing since, "back in the 90s."
  • Himalayan Guides
    This is a trekking & expedition company that includes heli skiing in Nepal on their menu of services.
  • Totalheliski
    This agency appears to be the invention of Haley Melodonis, and Australian adventure seeker. This is not an operator.
  • 8kPeak
    They state to be partnered with "Himalayan Heliski Guides." Yet, a click on their partner link with that name, redirects to the Heliski Adventures site (above.)

Facts & FAQ

Terrain & Elevation

You probably know Nepal for the Himalaya range which is home to the tallest mountains and most challenging climbing on Earth. Of course, all that terrain soaring miles above sea level is covered in snow, but you won’t find your average snowpack when you heli ski Nepal. The Himalaya’s high elevation and frigid temperatures mean that the snow that falls there is dry, airy powder that is just as forgiving as it is fun to ski and snowboard through. The elevation can also be harder to fly in because the air is thinner.

But if a pilot can land on Mt. Everest in Nepal, then heli skiing pilots can handle it!

 

The elevation brings more than just perfect powder. It’s easy to imagine why it’s difficult to establish villages, much less towns and cities, in a place as mountainous and wild as Nepal’s Himalaya Mountains. As a result, many of the chutes, bowls, and glaciers there are untouched and waiting for someone who loves skiing or snowboarding enough to make an adventure out of heli skiing Nepal.

Get Comfortable...and Book Your Heli Skiing Trip to Nepal Today

 

Regardless of where you go heli skiing in Nepal, there will be few other skiers, if any, who can say they have checked that box on their bucket list!

Simply seeing the Himalayas is an unforgettable experience, but skiing and snowboarding down them in between helicopter flights with birds-eye views of the tallest peaks in the world is certainly the adventure of a lifetime!
