Nepalis call her Sagarmatha, Goddess of the sky, in Tibet, she is Chomolungma, Goddess Mother of the Earth. But to climbers, she is simply Mount Everest, tallest mountain in the world, and symbol of both the heights and depths of our aspirations.

If mythology is to be believed, ten centuries ago a Wind Horse flew the Pangcheng Llama over the summit of Everest and landed at Pangboche Monastry.

Skydive Mount Everest is the closest you will come to re-enacting this folklore from the past.

The opportunity to skydive alongside the highest and most famous bit of mountain real estate on the planet, Sagamatha, Chomolungma or as we Brits named her Mount Everest.  Without question, this is the single best opportunity for adrenalin fuelled adventure ever. 

You’ll be landing on the highest drop zone in the world at almost 17,000ft and a mere 5 horizontal miles from the very summit of the mountain – but because you’re so close and Everest is so big, the mountain will appear enormous, it is!  

Above is a photomontage by Leo Dickinson and Ben Wood – the skydivers were snapped at 25,000ft – the backdrop of Mount Everest was taken above our Drop Zone at 18,000ft.  Imagine the panorama awaiting you as you exit the aircraft at 26,000ft. 

Almost 6000 people have stood on the summit of Mount Everest, nobody has skydived this close to the mountain before from such extreme altitudes.
