Overview

The Samagaun to Manaslu Base Camp Helicopter Shuttle is a premium private helicopter service that provides the quickest and safest way to travel from Samagaun (3,530 m) to Manaslu Base Camp (approximately 4,800–4,900 m). Operated by Himalayan Helicopter, this helicopter shuttle is ideal for trekkers, climbers, expedition teams, photographers, researchers, and support crews heading to the base of Mount Manaslu (8,163 m).
