Overview

Gosaikunda Helicopter Tour is an hour heli trip from Kathmandu that includes a visit to the sacred Gosaikunda Lake, one of Nepal’s most important travel destinations. Moreover, the main reason of preferring Gosaikunda Heli Tour is the amazing mountain ranges that surround Gosaikunda Lake that are followed by the lake’s religious significance. By taking a helicopter trip above Holy Gosainkunda Lake, you may get a bird’s eye perspective of the lake. Gosaikunda Heli Tour is a half-hour religious mountain sightseeing flight from Kathmandu.

Above all, Gosaikunda is also famous for the holy pilgrimage of Hinduism and Buddhism. According to Hinduism, it is a lake where Lord Shiva and Parvati reside. According to Buddhism, Gosaikunda is a holy lake where they pray for the wellbeing of the soul of the deceased. Moreover, during Gangadashahara and Janai Purnima, two important Hindu festivals, people from various parts of Nepal and India travel to Gosaikunda to worship at the site. Additionally, the lake is thought to have been created when Lord Shiva pushed his Trishul (Trident of Shiva) into the mountain to draw water out of it to soothe his burning throat after ingesting poison. Furthermore, Gosaikunda is also famous historically. It is said that the Nepali commander of the western front during the Anglo-Nepal war (1814-1816) Amar Singh Thapa had ended his life in Gosainkunda.
