If you thought bungee jumping was restricted to
some places in Europe, New Zealand and America, it's time you
got and update. The sport has finally found a natural home in
the highest mountain range in the world. The ultimate thrill of
a bungee jump can now be experienced in Nepal at perhaps the
best site in the world.
Nepal's first bungee jumping site is situated 160m over the wild
Bhote Koshi river, and located close to the Nepal-Tibet border,
a three-hour bus ride from Kathmandu. As can be arranged on
arrival in Kathmandu. As of now, there is only one agency
offering this sport. The jump, at 160m, was designed by one of
New Zealand's leading bungee consultants, and is operated by
some of the most experienced jump masters in the business. It's
mishap-proof. The agency takes safety "very, very seriously".
