Pokhara is also recognized as one of the top five tandem paragliding spots in the world as it has stable thermals, easy take-off, and landing sites, the safety of a large lake, and magnificent Himalayan views.

Tandem paragliding means the glider is seated in a separate harness in front of the pilot where he or she can sit carefreely and enjoy the surroundings, take pictures and talk with the pilot during the flight.
