    Here is a comprehensive overview of the weather during an Everest helicopter landing tour:

    Best Time for the Tour

    The best time for an Everest helicopter landing tour is during the spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) seasons. These periods generally offer stable weather conditions, clear skies, and optimal visibility, providing the best views of Mount Everest and the surrounding peaks.

    The weather during Spring (March-May)

    • This season experiences mild to moderate temperatures, with daytime temperatures ranging from 10°C to 20°C (50°F to 68°F) in lower elevations and slightly cooler temperatures at higher altitudes.
    • Clear skies and good visibility are common during this period, making it an ideal time for helicopter tours.
    • The spring season is also when the rhododendron forests bloom, adding a splash of color to the landscape.

    Weather during Autumn (September-November)

    • Autumn also offers mild to moderate temperatures, similar to the spring season.
    • The skies are usually clear, and visibility is excellent during this time, following the monsoon season, which typically ends in September.
    • The landscape appears lush and green after the monsoon rains, enhancing the overall scenic beauty of the region

    Weather during Winter (December-February) and Summer (June-August)

    • Winter and summer months are considered less favorable for helicopter tours due to the increased likelihood of unfavorable weather conditions.
    • Winter brings cold temperatures and occasional snowfall, which can make helicopter landings challenging and pose a risk to visibility.
    • Summer, coinciding with the monsoon season, brings heavy rainfall, cloud cover, and reduced visibility, making helicopter tours riskier and less enjoyable.
