Heliski Consultants - Nepal
Adventure means something different to everyone!
If your definition includes incredibly beautiful mountains that are challenging just to access, much less ski down, then there is no better adventure for you than a heli skiing trip to Nepal!
Heliski Consultants Nepal provides its guests the aircraft, guides, support and accommodations to safely tackle backcountry skiing in a place like Nepal, but that’s exactly what good operators do.
Most people know Nepal as home to the world’s tallest mountain, but it is also home to many other tall and scenic mountains that provide a worthy challenge to mountaineers and skiers alike. With all their elevation though, you could spend more time hiking or touring than skiing. That’s where Heliski Consultants provides the essential assist!
Facts & FAQ
If you want to heli ski in Nepal, it would help to have just as much knowledge of the mountains and their surrounding infrastructure as experience on the snow. It's VERY important to consider the effects of strenuous activity at high elevation. Altitude sickness can affect some unsuspecting travelers at levels as low as 3500 meters!
Travelling to very remote areas and counting on the experience of the pilots to operate their helicopters in thinner air, as the case in the Himalayas, is also a topic of safety.
Heliski Consultants Nepal takes care of those important elements of trip planning, so that their guests can ski the dry powder that covers the slopes at high elevation.
Plus, Nepal heli skiing means accessing remote regions, which opens up the possibility of making first descents in the Himalayas. You could get to name your run!
According to their site, "Heliski Adventures Worldwide" has been operating in Nepal since 2001.
Their experience, infrastructure and connections within the region make them perhaps the only choice for adventure seekers who want to ski and snowboard in Nepal.
See heli skiing Nepal for our opinion regarding operators & agents offering heli skiing opportunites in this region.
Heli skiing in the shadow of Annapurna sounds like something only a professional "freerider" could do, but that’s exactly where the Nepal team takes their guests.
In fact, even though the guides generally take their guests near Annapurna, they can also take clients to go heli skiing near Dhaulagiri, Manang, Telicho Lake, Thorong Pass, and Khumbu..
Where you heli ski and how many people are in your group depends on the package you choose with Heliski Consultants Nepal.
Packages include a private charter or group package, which is very common in the industry.
Additionally, you’ll have a long list of comfortable accommodations to chose from, including:
Pokhara Heritage Hotel Suites & Spa (an upgrade.)
And more!
Your heli ski adventure will begin in Kathmandu. You'll likely overnight at the Marriot Aloft Hotel in the city.
Your adventure will continue with either a trip to the Everest or Annapurna region.
Once in the destination of your choice, you know the drill...find your accommodations, get your avalanche & safety training completed and be ready to lift off in an AS350 B3 (A-star) helicopter for your heli skiing adventure!
Although the guides have powder skis available for you, you're welcome to bring your own skis or snowboard, so you have the perfect gear to make the most of your descents!

We at heli-skier have not skied with this operator or anywhere in Nepal. We highly recommend doing "the deep dive" in qualifying all of your booking arrangements. Please visit heli skiing in Nepal, so you can understand our cautious approach.
All of that said, we have devoted two other pages to this operator, which advertises services in Greece and in Chile.
All of these locations are regions we hope to travel to and get in some heli skiing runs!
