Paraglider
is a foot-launched, ram-air, airfoil canopy which flies
with the energy of wind, gravity and pilot's power to steer.
It descends due to gravity and ascends due to air pressure.
With the help of air pressure, pilot decides when and where
to fly, soar, dive and eventually land it safely.
Adventure seekers seek depths and space
where ever they can find. In Nepal, you have breathtaking
depth of 700 meter or higher for the unparalleled Shangri-La
that lies beneath the Himalayan range offering a scenic
ecstasy of the valleys and lush green jungles combined with
an infinitive visibility of the crisp clear Himalayas all
around you,all ready to add another dimension in your flight
adrenals. November, December and January are the best three
months for Paragliding in Nepal. Superb weather and excellent
mountain visibility can be expected during those months.
Annapurna region, also known as the arms of Pokhara valley,
is the best location for paragliding in Nepal. Sites around
the Phewa Lake are popular, one such is the Sarangkot hill
which provides a breathtaking view point of 700m above the
Pokhara heaven !

paragliding instructor you can take the following popular
