Mt. Everest, located in the Khumbu region bordering Tibet,
is known as the Sagarmatha ("Head of the Sky") in Nepali. The Sherpas
and Tibetans worship it as Chomolongma ("Mother Goddess of the
Earth"). At an altitude of 8,848 meters, it is called the "Top of the
World” or the "Third Pole" because it is the highest peak in the
world. The Everest region is an area of immense beauty. With magnificent
snow-covered peaks, and with some of the rarest wildlife and extremely beautiful
forests and valleys, this region is a famous destination for trekking. To fly
over this area and around Mt. Everest is truly a magnificent sight!
Everest has been opened for commercial mountaineering for
already four decades though esoteric expeditions took place as early as the
1920s. Competitive commercial and adventurous mountaineering took off following
the first successful ascent of Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary on the
mountain in late May 1953. Since then many successful climbs have been mounted
on Everest from various directions. Many attempts have also failed, most of
them in tragedy. Thus, a recent new name for the mountain and its foothills has
emerged. It is called the Death Zone and Weather permitting; tourists depart from the Kathmandu
Domestic Airport in the early morning for this fantastic one hour flight around
Mt. Everest. It is an opportunity of a lifetime, an experience you will never
forget! The flights is easily arranged by your travel agent or by the staff at Palmu Holidays Tours & Trek P Ltd. give us a call, chat with us,
