Adventures in Nepal II - Para Gliding

Have you ever had the fantasy of soaring high in the sky but also felt that airplanes are little too comfy, then para gliding is there for you. At Sarangkot, Pokhara you will get once in a lifetime oppurtunity to fly like a bird. Clear blue sky above you, Phewa Lake below, scenic mountains at your side and birds to accompany you, this amalgam of nature is incredible and will surely feel like heaven.

Tenzing-Hillary Airport, Lukla - Adventure Unlimited

Tenzing Hillary Airport(2869m) at Lukla, Nepal is one of the most exhilarating and dangerous airports in the world. With only 527m of runway and about 700m angled slope which ends at a steep cliff, flying to and fro here feels more of an adventure than an ordinary flight elsewhere. Known as the gateway to Everest region, it is also one of the busiest airports in Nepal. Here are some of the pictures which gives you a clearer view of this magnificient airport.
