Tandem Flight
Tandem flying involves a passenger flying with a pilot. Both have separate harnesses that are attached to each other and the wing. Paragliding harnesses are built for comfort and safety; they feel more like an armchair. After take-off the passengers just sits back, relax and enjoys the unfolding magnificent sceneries. Because Para gliders can foot launch and gently foot land again and are very portable we can take them anywhere and fly from most mountains in Nepal.
