Draped
along the great heights of the Himalayas, Nepal is a land
of sublime scenery, time-worn temples, and some of the best
walking trails on earth. It's a poor country rich in scenic
splendour and cultural treasures. The kingdom is the kind
of country that lingers in dreams long after leaving it. Whether
it be adrenaline kicks from some of the world's premier white-water
rafting, kayaking and mountain biking, or from the sight of
a tiger or rhino through the dawn mist from atop an elephant
in Chitwan National Park, Nepal is destined to make a big
impression. Many visitors, drawn to Nepal by the promise of
adventure, leave charmed also by the friendliness of the Nepali
people and their amazingly rich and diverse culture.

Visitors
to Pokhara can enjoy a bird's-eye-view of its splendid Himalayan
scenery and experience the thrill of flying in a micro-light
aircraft. The exciting sport of motor gliding is now available
in Pokhara to complement its natural beauty. The Russian-made
delta-wing powered gliders can carry two persons. They have
a maximum speed of 130 km per hour and can reach heights of
5,000 m. Flights are conducted by experienced Pilots.
Paragliding
in Nepal : Paragliding is a relatively new
adventure sport in Nepal, and little information is available
in tourist guidebooks. Paragliding in this Himalayan country
can be a truly wonderful and fulfilling experience for the
adventure seekers. You can experience unparalleled scenic
grandeur as your share airspace with Himalayan griffin vultures,
eagles, kites, while floating over villages, monasteries,
temples, lakes, and jungles, with a fantastic views of the
majestic Himalayas.
Gliding
is a weather dependent sport and the flying season in Nepal
commences from November through February, the best months
being November and December. By virtue of its latitude and
monsoon climate, the tree line in Nepal is at an incredible
3900m above sea level. With conditions milder than summer
alpine, these are excellent and constant atmospherics. The
topography and climate of Nepal also make it an ideal destination
for all levels of pilots - subtropical conditions provide
plenty of thermals and combined with the long valleys common
in Nepal, they produce perfect "cloud streets" ideal
for Para gliders, inviting them to fly along this "sky
highway. The local microclimate, controlled by the numerous
lakes in the valley, is unique, which makes it even better
for the glider.
The
take off points for these flights is Sarangkot (1592m), which
offers prime views of Phewa Tal and the mountains at sunrise
and sunset (provided the skies are clear); the
landing is by the lake. No previous experience is required
as qualified pilots provide a short briefing before launching.
