A vehicle will pick you up from your hotel, and you will head towards the paragliding spot. The take-off location is on top of Sarangkot Hill, and you will reach there after 45 minutes of a scenic drive. Once you arrive at the spot, the pilot will tie the harness and ropes onto your body instruct you about the flight.
After taking off, you will glide above Sarangkot and Phewa Lake for 25 minutes. The pilot will then slowly descend the paraglider and land it near the lake. Another private vehicle will then bring you back to your hotel.
