Kathmandu-Bungmati-Chapagaon-Kathmandu.
Hot air ballooning in Nepal is something
that many travelers have written home
about. In the five years since its
inception, the sport has been very
popular with tourists for it affords the
most spectacular view of the Kathmandu
valley and the Himalayan ranges towering
in the background. On a clear day it’s a
superb way to view the Himalayas (from
over 6000 m up), and the view of the
valley is equally breathtaking.
The huge balloon comes to life in the
morning light, `a sleeping giant
decorated with the all-seeing eyes of
the Buddha’, as it ripples, stretches,
expands and readies itself for its load
of passengers. The departure is gentle
and one hardly feels the ascent.
The advantage of this ancient and
romantic form of flight is that there is
no whirring or whining of engines, no
dusty Perspex and no airplane wings to
obscure the most magnificent of views.
Like the agency puts it `even if you do
not climb Mt. Everest, from the perfect
safety and comfort of a wicker
basket…you will feel that you have
reached the top of the world in
effortless security’. Cool!
Season
The best time for a hot air balloon
flight is during the months of
October-November and March, although the
season extends from October to April.
The flights take place daily during the
season, and are dependent on the wind
for the direction the flight will take
(Eastward or westward across the
valley). The landing could be anyplace,
mostly in the terraced paddies that
stretch out across the fringes of the
valley, and usually attracts a large
impromptu gathering of villagers
checking to see what has fallen out of
the sky!

of Madhuban, we enter into a narrow
pristine valley ascending 300m on superb
