The Annapurna & Historical Ridge Cross-Country Expedition

About this experience

Ready to leave crowded trails and conquer the Himalayan skies? The Annapurna & Historical Ridge Cross-Country Expedition turns ordinary sightseeing into a legendary aerial exploration.
• Fly Through History: The only flight path over Kaskikot's ridges. Soar directly over the ancient ruins where the Shah Kingdom Palace first began.
• Cross-Country Tracking: Leave standard paths behind. Hunt powerful thermals to climb thousands of feet and loop around Sarangkot and Kaskikot.
• Maximum Airtime (45-60+ Mins): Triple the airtime of standard cruises to fully immerse in the flight and map out deep valleys below.
• Fly with Wild Eagles: Track the exact same thermals used by Himalayan raptors, gliding wing-tip-to-wing-tip in front of Machhapuchhre.
• Frictionless Experience: Private Lakeside pickup, strictly audited safety gear, and high-definition GoPro media are fully included.

Itinerary and highlights

A standard flight looks at the mountains. A cross-country flight flies you through history, wilderness, and deep into the sky.
If a 20-minute cruise isn't enough, step up to the pinnacle of paragliding in Nepal with our elite Annapurna & Historical Ridge Cross-Country Expedition. This is a deeply personal, high-altitude 45 to 60+ minute flight that blends extreme sport with Himalayan history.
• Simple Logistics: Enjoy stress-free private pickup from your Lakeside hotel directly to our scenic launch site.
• Authentic Exploration: Fly with a veteran XC pilot and leave the standard tracks behind. You will actively hunt powerful thermal currents to climb thousands of feet into the sky.
• Personal Journey: Make an epic aviation loop over the Sarangkot and Kaskikot regions. Glide over deep valleys, soar next to wild mountain eagles, and fly over the ancient ruins of the historic Shah Kingdom Palace with the massive Annapurna Range and Machhapuchhre directly ahead.
Your flight concludes with a smooth lakeside landing. GoPro photos and videos are included!
