Paragliding
With seven-years experience of flying the Annapurna
region, Sunrise Paragliding has been working hard to promote paragliding
as a major sport in the country and stand unrivalled in their knowledge
of the conditions, sites and potential.
Operations are based in the Annapurna region, more specifically the
Pokhara valley, because the micro-climate of the valley makes it an
ideal area for flying, with far more constant conditions than that of
the Kathmandu valley. Nestled at the foot of the Annapurna range, the
lakeside town of Pokhara, Nepal’s second city, commands
a spectacular view of the Himalayan giants. And with an altitude of
800 meters only, its subtropical climate allows for shorts and T-shirt
all the year round.
For those with no paragliding experience, there is the option to take
a ride in tandem with a verteran pilot, or to join in a training program,
three sets of 3-day courses, and become a pro!
