Ultralight Aircraft in Nepal

Ultralight aircraft flights offer a breathtaking bird’s-eye view of Pokhara Valley and the surrounding mountains. The flight is offered beginning September through June. The flights take place from sunrise to 11 a.m. and from 3 p. m. to sunset every day during these months. In the half-hour flight, one can fly over Pokhara city, Phewa Lake, Sarankot hill and get as close to the Mt. Fish Tail as it is possible. Another option is the exploration of the Annapurna range from 12,000 feet or higher in an hour. Pokhara is easily accessible from Kathmandu and other major cities. Tourist facilities are also easily available here.
