Hot Air Balloon

A hot air balloon is a popular technique to go through the sky that uses a lighter gas than air. It’s a miniature plane that uses a bag filled with hot air to raise itself above the ground. The Hot Balloon uses hot air because it is lighter than the surrounding air.The hot air balloon, as the title suggests, helps in the rise of the aircraft into the sky. It will allow you to appreciate the natural beauty while also generating the most thrilling adventure you will experience in your life.

 

Our country, Nepal is an adventure lover’s paradise, with over a dozen different adventure activities accessible in the Himalayan foothills. After a lengthy wait, a commercial hot air ballooning trip in Nepal began on November 17th, 2018 in the lakeside of Pokhara. It’s fantastic news for adventurers planning a trip to Nepal.You will experience magnificent Mountain Views, calm Lakes, stunning beauty of Pokhara, and magnificent terrain underneath you while on Hot Air Balloon Rides. The Hot Air Balloon Ride is an optional excursion for tourists who want to enjoy their vacation with family, friends, and loved ones.Hot air ballooning is not a new activity in Nepal. It began in 1991, following a flight over Mount Everest by two foreigners, Chris Dewhirst and his group. Furthermore, it was eventually popularized in the Kathmandu valley. It was stopped due to technological issues and a variety of other factors.

The ultimate experience of floating through the skies in the hot air balloon while surfing in a breathtaking environment is undoubtedly one of the Nepal’s most memorable experiences. The nicest thing is the breathtaking scenery of the highlands and Himalayas. The hot air balloon pilots in Nepal are well-equipped and trained to fly the hot air balloon. In any flight, the safety of the passengers and crew is important.

 

The duration of a Hot Air Balloon flight in Pokhara varies from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the preferences of guests. The 30-minute Eagle Eye hot air balloon ride allows you to see the sights of Pokhara while taking in the breathtaking views of Mount Fishtail, Mount Dhaulagiri, Mount Annapurna, Mount Hiunchuli, Mount LamjungHimal, and Phewa Lake.This flight will take you to a thousand feet above the Pokhara valley’s surface. This interesting excursion is the town’s and even Nepal’s best quick and sweet adventure.In Pokhara, the hot air balloon takes off from Dhampus or Lauruk and lands on the banks of the Mardi River. If you’re in a small group, you can request a good spot and viability from the operator.The site of the hot air ballooning in Pokhara is, however, normally managed by the operating company for safety reasons. From the hot air balloon, the city’s magnificence, which includes beautiful lakes, caves, and breathtaking Himalayan views, is spectacular and just amazing and beyond words could describe.

 

For tourists, hot air ballooning in Pokhara costs USD 90 for a 20-minute flight and USD 160 for a one-hour tour. Tourists from Nepal pay NPR 6,000 for a 20-minute trip and NPR 11,000 for an hour-long flight. This ticket covers hotel pick-up and drop-off, as well as complementary tea and coffee on board.

Flying 3000 meters above the Kathmandu valley in a wicker basket offers up a world of magnificent vistas only the initiated can see. Ride the winds and enjoy the most enthralling sky ride above Kathmandu—the moment when fantasies become a reality. In Kathmandu valley, the Hot Air Balloon trip departs at Thimi, near Bhaktapur, one of the three districts of the Kathmandu Valley and possibly the most historical of them all.

September, October, November, December, January, February, March, April, and May are the best months for a hot air balloon ride, excluding monsoon season months (June, July, August). During these months, flights are conducted on a daily basis, although they are also dependent on the wind and its direction of flow (eastward or westward across the valley).Any trip may simply be supplemented with a Himalayan hot air balloon trip. Alternatively, for those who are unable or unable to walk, a balloon trip will provide a front-row ticket to the mountains!Different mountain flights and aircraft motions are also recommended, but hot air ballooning is far more promising than the others since you will be in the basket and can appreciate the scenery while swinging in the air. Isn’t it cool and thrilling at the same time?
