Why is Helicopter Yatra the Right Choice for You?

  • Time-Saving: It usually takes a very long time to travel to the sacred Himalayan pilgrimage sites due to the hard and rugged mountainous roads. Helicopter rides reduce travel time from 10-12 days on foot or 12 days by road, to just 2-5 days.
  • Accessibility: The high-altitude shrines, especially Kedarnath (3,583m) and Yamunotri, are accessible through strenuous treks that may be difficult for elderly pilgrims, those with medical conditions, or those unaccustomed to physical exertion. Going to these remote places by helicopter allows many believers to complete the pilgrimage who might not have been able to before.
  • Convenience and Comfort: Flying by helicopter helps you relax comfortably and escape unforeseen problems such as rough car trips, bad weather and lengthy journeys. You can now find organized helicopter packages that come with help from the ground, places to stay and special darshan arrangements.
  • Mesmerizing Aerial Views: Riders can enjoy breathtaking vistas of snow-capped mountains, rivers and many valleys during the Yatra.
