Best time of the day  for Paragliding In Pokhara:

As the day starts,  people rush towards Sarangkot to get the best view.  Most paragliding companies make their flight three times a day.  The early morning which is at 9: 30, the pre-mid-day at 11, and the post-mid-day at 1.

The basic thing to do the paragliding is clear weather and a good amount of thermal.  Mostly, people who have a hustling day, do the early morning flight. Unfortunately, that just lasts for nearly 20 min due to less amount of thermals as the ground doesn’t get to heat properly.  So, the best time is, the pre-mid-day which is at 11 am.

The perfect combination of a sunny day and more thermal will make your flight memorable for a lifetime. So, we suggest you do the paragliding at 11 am, as the view gets even clearer.

When I did paragliding Pokhara sky is clear

Balu Basyal was excellent and made good use of our time to make me exiting Tamdam Flights. Birendra is an excellent representative of Nepal Mission Himalaya treks and a very professional tour guide too. Balu was friendly so that I did full of joy in flight. Birendra organizes my flight and Balu is pilot of flights. When I did paragliding Pokhara sky is clear so that I was able to see Mountain, Lake and Pokhara valley. Tks Birendra and Balu.
