Beyond the snowcapped Mt. Jumolhari, flying further northeast, you can view the majestic companion peak of Mt. Jumolhari and Mt. Jichu Drakey, which stands at 6794 meters from sea level. This mountain is known to have a double summit, with the lower discussion towards the south. Our helicopter tour will give you the best views of the Himalayan ranges. On your return flight, we will fly over the majestic Lingzhi Dzong, situated at an altitude of 4150 meters. This dzong was built in 1668 to celebrate Bhutan’s victory over the Tibetans in the war of 1667. It’s also known as the “Lingzhi Yugyal Dzong.”
