Pokhara Skydive – An Adventure of Serenity and Sensation
Pokhara is extraordinarily alluring. Let’s make this beauty thrilling as well! Following the success of the World’s Highest Skydiving adventure – Everest Skydive, we now offer a standard form of skydiving in Pokhara, an amazing blend of elegance and excitement. Situated
about 124 miles (200 kilometers) west of Kathmandu, Pokhara is blessed
with natural adornments in abundance. Flanked by panoramic Himalayan
peaks of Annapurna, Manaslu, Dhaulagiri and Machhapuchhre; and embedded
by emerald lakes, Pokhara is a tourist hub frequented by thousands of
visitors every year. The city is also the starting point of the
Annapurna Treks, the most popular trekking route in Nepal after Everest.
Backed up by the expert Everest Skydive Crew, Pokhara Skydive will be held at Pame Danda dropzone, west of Phewa Lake where skydivers will leap from
a height of 11000-13000ft from AS 350 B3/B2 Helicopter. With the
majestic peaks at your backdrop and the valley of Pokhara sprawling
below, you take the leap from the aircraft, freefalling for a few
seconds, before your canopy opens and land gently on the ground. Your
entire jump will be captured on film by the camera flyer.
The Pokhara Skydive is a nine-day package, that includes 5 Solo
Jumps, accommodation, sightseeing tours and air and surface transfers
(Kathmandu – Pokhara), plus rafting on the challenging rapids of
Trishuli River. Entries are open for solo as well as tandem jump. If you
want the thrill of the event but have no solo skydiving experience or
you have friends or family members joining you, we offer a ‘Holiday
Package’ that includes one Tandem Jump and one Tandem Paragliding within
the same Boogie Package. An optional half-an-hour Microlight Flight is
also open for those who do not like skydive. If you want to be a part of
this liberating experience, join us in this adventure of Serenity and Sensation!!
