 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 Kosi
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".
Location
Less than 3 hours outside Kathmandu by
Cross Culture. You will travel the
Arniko (Kathmandu/Lhasa) Highway to
within 12km of the Tibet Border and the
famous Friendship Bridge.
The Gorge
Cross Culture Trekking takes place on a
166m wide steel suspension bridge over
the Bhoti Kosi River.
The Bridge
Swiss designed, specially for bungee
jumping with a 4x safety factor. The
bridge has a loading factor of 250kg per
running meter. This means that the
bridge will hold 250 x 166 = 41,500kg or
4.5 tonnes. And... those are Swiss
measurements! * Over 6000 meters of
steel wire was used to build the bridge
Longest suspension bridge in Nepal * The
