Ministry grants permission to operate paragliding in Kushadevi in Kavre



KAVRE: The Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation has granted permission to Phulchoki Adventure Pvt. Ltd. to commercially operate paragliding at Kushadevi area in Kavre.

Following this, the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) has started the technical process, said the CAAN officials.

“We have got permission from the Ministry to operate commercial paragliding. We will operate it after the CAAN issues the paragliding operation directive,” said the company’s president Chhabi Lal Humagain.

It may take around two months for the operation of the project, he added.

The flight will take place on a daily basis from 10 am to 4 pm, he said.

Three years ago a paragliding flight test was held in the area said to be suitable for the adventure in terms of location, landing, air pressure and other environmental aspects.
