About this activity

Where the Mountains Drop Fast

Nepal's terrain — eight 8,000m peaks meeting tropical lowlands in less than 200 km — creates near-perfect conditions for adventure sports. The Bhote Koshi Bungee at 160m is one of the world's highest commercial bungee jumps. The Sun Koshi River is rated by River Magazine as one of the world's top 10 rafting rivers. Pokhara's tandem paragliding regularly tops global rankings for accessibility and view.

A single 7-10 day adventure trip can stack bungee, raft, paragliding and zip-line — all professionally guided with international safety standards. Most operators carry insurance underwritten by European companies, and equipment is replaced on European-standard rotation cycles.

Prime Good Not recommended
Autumn (Oct–Nov) is prime for everything — stable weather, clear thermals for paragliding, perfect river flow. Spring (Mar–May) is second-best. Monsoon swells rivers above safe rafting limits and grounds paragliders.
