Paragliding, lake paddling, a sunrise hike to Sarangkot and ziplining beneath the Annapurna range.
Pokhara is Nepal’s outdoor playground. Set on the shores of Phewa Lake with the fishtail peak of Machapuchare rising behind it, it is the perfect base for soft adventure.
This five-day programme combines a tandem paraglide over the lake, a sunrise hike to Sarangkot, a day hike to the World Peace Pagoda and a morning on the world’s steepest zipline — with comfortable lakeside stays in between.
A short scenic flight from Kathmandu with Himalayan views. Afternoon boat ride on Phewa Lake to the island temple of Tal Barahi.
