Paragliding in Nepal

Paragliding in Nepal
Paragliding is the most pure form of flying. By using the elements and rising currents of warm air, we can stay aloft for many hours and travel many miles. This simple aircraft fits easily into a rucksack and weighs around 10kg.

In Nepal the flying is made more special by the continuous presence of numerous species of eagle, vulture, falcon, hawk and kite. They all love to join us, equally fascinated by us as we are by them. Often flying within feet of the glider!

Frontiers Paragliding offers 3 stages to becoming a pilot. We follow the Para-Pro syllabus; this is set out by the Federation Aeronautique International (FAI) the controlling body for all air sports worldwide. All our instructors are highly experienced and form the backbone of a highly professional team.

The license we issue is authorised by the Federation Aeronautique International (FAI). This is the controlling body for air sports worldwide. The IPPI card (International Pilot Proficiency Identification) is recognised in every country that has an air sport association.
