The trek cooks and assistants are trained to prepare food hygienically in the field and antiseptic water is provided for you to wash your hands before mealtimes. Vegetarians can be catered for quite easily, and other special diets can be accommodated with plenty of advance notice. The food is safe to eat at the restaurants that we recommend you to go to in the major cities. On our treks, we will provide simple, yet tasty food incorporating a mixture of Nepali and Western cuisine.

How long is the normal flight?

We offer the half hour Cloud Buster flight three to four timesper day depending on seasonal conditions. We also offer an hour long Cross Country flight. Both flights begin and end in the same locations, and may vary in length depending on the daily conditions.In general, the Cloud buster flight can range from 15-30 minutes, and the cross country from 45-60 minutes. Again, this is due to Paragliding being a sport completely at the mercy of the current conditions, which can shift throughout the day.
