The Ultra Flight experience in Pokhara offers an exciting opportunity to witness the stunning landscapes of Nepal from the sky. Your adventure begins as you arrive at the Pokhara Airport, where the Alpine Club of Himalaya team greets you and provides a short safety briefing. After a quick introduction, you proceed to board the ultra-light aircraft, a small yet stable plane designed specifically for scenic flights. Once airborne, you are welcomed by sweeping views of Pokhara Valley, Phewa Lake, green hills, and the majestic Himalayan ranges. Depending on your chosen flight duration—15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes—you will soar over iconic landmarks such as the Lakeside area, Peace Pagoda, Seti River Gorge, and the lush terraced fields surrounding the city. Longer flights take you even closer to the snow-capped peaks of Machhapuchhre and the Annapurna Massif, offering a breathtaking and unforgettable aerial perspective.
Throughout the flight, your pilot provides guidance, ensures comfort, and helps you enjoy every moment of the scenic journey. After completing the flight, the aircraft smoothly returns to the airport, where you can take photos, relive the experience, and receive assistance from the Alpine Club of Himalaya team. This thrilling adventure gives you a unique bird’s-eye view of Nepal’s natural beauty and remains one of the most memorable activities to do in Pokhara.
Best Season
The best season for enjoying an Ultra Flight in Pokhara is during the clear and stable weather months of autumn (September to November) and spring (March to May). During these periods, the skies are generally bright and cloudless, offering crystal-clear views of the Annapurna and Machhapuchhre ranges, along with the lakes and valleys of Pokhara. The air is crisp, visibility is excellent, and the mild temperatures create ideal flying conditions, making your aerial experience smooth, safe, and visually spectacular. While flights operate year-round, these two seasons provide the most reliable weather and the most breathtaking mountain scenery, ensuring you get the best possible views from the sky.
