A great fair is held here in the Janai Purnima (One of the ritual celebrations) every year in August and bathes on Gosainkunda Lake. Boundless Adventure organizes the panoramic tour of Gosaikunda Lake.

A Gosaikunda Helicopter Tour Experience

Our family’s experience on the Gosaikunda helicopter tour with Boundless Adventure was unforgettable. The crew member of Boundless Adventure picked us up from our hotel in Kathmandu and dropped us off at Kathmandu’s airport. With a flight of 15 minutes, we reached Gosaikunda Lake. We had a landing at Gosaikunda Lake for 30 minutes. In such a fabulous place, we felt 30 minutes as a 3 second. We wanted to explore more, so we requested Mr.Damber to fly longer, and we extended our flight by flying over Langtang and Kyang Glacier. Our kids were thrilled to see the Himalayan views from above and Gosiakunda Lake from closer. We had an incredible time on the Gosiakunda tour, and special thanks to team Boundless for our care and support.

Aerial Adventure in Gosaikunda

My cousin and I are adventure seekers and always try to find a new place to explore. Last October, we had a fantastic helicopter tour to Gosiakunda. We booked with Boundless Adventure, and they exceeded all our expectations. The Goisakunda helicopter tour lasted one and a half hours, but the memories will last forever. The aerial views of the Himalayan landscape were breathtaking. The moment was precious when we approached the pristine Gosaikunda Lake. We had a ground landing near the Goiskaunda lake for 30 minutes. Upon landing, the mountain peaks surround us, making us feel like we are in heaven. Our pilot was highly skilled and provided us with a safe journey. Thanks to the entire team of Boundless Adventure. We are planning the Everest Base camp helicopter tour with the team this coming autumn.
