Ultra Flight & Pokhara Day Tour: Annapurna Views & Lakes

Summary

Pokhara Ultra Flight Adventure & City Exploration

You’ll get to fly over Pokhara’s lakes and mountains in an ultralight plane, then spend the day exploring caves, waterfalls, and local spots—all at your own pace.

What’s the experience like?

The morning air in Pokhara has this cool bite—almost sharp enough to wake you up before the first sip of tea. We met our pilot just as the sun started to light up the Annapurna range, and honestly, I was a little nervous stepping into that tiny ultralight aircraft. But once we lifted off, nerves faded fast. The city shrank below us, Fewa Lake glimmered like a piece of glass, and those snowy peaks looked close enough to touch. Our guide pointed out Machapuchare’s “fishtail” tip poking through the clouds—locals say it’s never been climbed. The headset crackled with his stories about the mountains and how weather can change in minutes up here.

Back on solid ground, we grabbed breakfast at a small café near Lakeside—the kind with mismatched mugs and fresh roti. Then it was off for a city tour. Pokhara’s called the “city of blue lakes” for good reason; there are nine scattered around, each with its own vibe. Devis’ Falls was loud—water thundering down into a hidden cave below—and you could feel the spray from the lookout point. At Mahendra Cave (locals call it Bats’ Cave), we ducked inside with flashlights, watching our step on slippery stones while bats rustled overhead. Later, when the wind picked up just right, we took a short boat ride on Fewa Lake—nothing fancy, just drifting and watching paragliders float by above us.
