Zipline in Pokhara – The World’s Steepest Zipline (1,850m)

Experience the ultimate thrill with the ZipFlyer in Pokhara, the world’s steepest zipline. This adrenaline-pumping adventure offers breathtaking views of the Himalayas, Phewa Lake, and lush valleys. This guide covers everything about the Sarangkot Zipline Pokhara experience, including the latest Zipline Price Pokhara options.

About the Zipline in Pokhara

The ZipFlyer in Pokhara begins at Sarangkot, high above the city, and drops riders toward the valley floor below. Because of its steep angle and long cable, Red Bull has recognized it as one of the most extreme zip-flying experiences in the world. This makes the Pokhara Zipline a favorite for thrill-seekers who want a short, high-intensity adventure without a long time commitment. If you’re looking for another high-adrenaline activity nearby, our ATV Ride in Pokhara is just as exciting. If you’d like to enjoy the famous Sarangkot sunrise view before your adrenaline ride, many guests combine it with our Sunrise at Sarangkot experience.

Starting from Sarangkot Hill, the Pokhara Zipline descends at high speed, making it one of the best zipline experiences in the world.

I found myself with some free time and joined Thupten’s afternoon tour as a spur-of-the-moment decision. It was definitely one of the best experiences I had in Nepal, Thupten is incredibly knowledgeable and was eager to share insights about his people and the way Buddhism is studied in the monasteries. I particularly loved being invited into a Tibetan home to experience a traditional afternoon tea, and being able to hear a young monk’s life story and ask him questions is something I will never forget.
Thank you for sharing your culture, Thupten, it’s been a real privilege to join you for an afternoon. 🙏🏻

Thupten is a very kind and professional guide who guided us through the Tibetan refugee settlement in Pokhara. Insightful and interesting visit! We had the opportunity to talk with a young monk from the monastery and also attend a puja. Tibetan tea and also some shopping were the perfect extra! Definitely recommend to book a tour at Tibetan Encounter!

我參加的是Sarangkot Sunrise Tour，看完漂亮的日出，享用糌粑糊、酥油茶作為早餐（我個人滿喜歡酥油茶的，有隨博卡拉的氣候調製得沒那麼濃厚，甚至比在台灣喝過的還清澈哈哈），很幸運的能夠短暫旁觀並不在行程規劃上的法會誦經。
與年輕僧侶策萬的對話可以對寺院學校的修行生活有初步的了解，我深刻記得策萬說「為什麼會有心理創傷？因為我們困在過去、聚焦於過去。但禪修把你帶回當下這一刻，專注於當下，因為一切有為法皆是無常。」，作為世俗之人，總想為過去的苦難找到解答，然而解脫的方法正是用慈悲與平靜來取代憤怒與嫉妒。與僧侶的對話真的獲益良多。
也很幸運的能夠見識到僧侶們正在製作沙壇城，聽說剛好是我離開尼泊爾的那天會被破壞掉，為了展現無常，過程的專注到最後的消失不會是不值得，仍然驚艷於這麼精細的藝術呈現。我也喜歡相片藝廊的動線安排，一旁的解說看板介紹了從流亡一開始的辛苦到現在存續的願景，而對仍在不自由之下的藏人有更多的惻隱之心。
尤其感謝導遊Thupten對兩個圖博聚落的導覽，他的講解精煉深入帶有幽默，並讓外來者觀察的角度不只是獵奇與宏大的刻板印象，而是能深刻與個體的生命經驗共感。他的知識豐富具體，替我說明了許多對圖博社群的問題，也推薦我一些延伸閱讀的書籍，很開心以此為契機更了解圖博。而且Thupten的拍照技術真的很好！
十分推薦到博卡拉旅遊的旅客參加導覽，一定也會對圖博社群的現況有更多的了解、得到更多真實的田野經驗。希望所有的圖博人都能夠驕傲的展示雪獅旗，致自由。

The tour was amazing! Much deeper than many other superficial experiences, Thupten makes sure his guests understand every aspect of the Tibetan cultur, religion, ways of life, refugee status, cuisine, education, medicine and relationship with their homeland. It’s impressive how much genuinely interesting information Thupten is able to convey, and contact with several Tibetans makes it even more tangible and rich. Since it’s very challenging to visit Tibet directly, this experience is possibly the closest one can get. Absolutely recommended, and thank you Thupten!

Two Fantastic Experiences with Tibetan Encounters - Chitwan & Tibetan Culture

Tibetan Encounters organised a 2-night trip to Chitwan National Park for my daughter and I. They sorted the entire package (accommodation, meals and activities) and even arranged our bus journeys from Kathmandu to Chitwan and onwards to Pokhara. Alice was incredibly helpful and kept in touch with us the whole time ensuring we made it safely and were enjoying ourselves. Thank you for making the experience so easy and stress free!

I also did the Full Day Tibetan Cultural Tour with Mr.Thupten and would highly recommend it. The day was organised incredibly well. We visited Tibetan settlements and monasteries, learnt about carpet making, enjoyed traditional dishes (thenthuk, tsampa, butter tea etc), experienced the afternoon prayer chanting and even more. It was clear how passionate Mr. Thupten is when it comes to sharing the stories, traditions and experiences of the Tibetan community. If you have any interest what so ever in Tibetan culture then you have to do this tour!

You. Should. Book. This. Tour. I did the Afternoon Tibetan Monastery visit and it was really interesting! When you enter the Monastery, it's a totally different world. I keep this memory close to me. Thank you Thupten!

I had the privilege to do the Afternoon Tibetan Cultural Tour with Thupten as my guide. He’s very knowledgeable on the matter and very keen to explain everything and answer every question I had. You can really see how the preservation of Tibetan culture and traditions are very important to him.
During the tour, I had the opportunity to visit two monasteries (talk with a monk and attend the Saturday afternoon prayer), plus having a proper Tibetan snack. The food especially, consumed in the house of Tibetan refugees, was accompanied by more stories, insights on Tibetan history and customs and past and future perspectives of Tibetan people around the world.
Thank you for the wonderful and very interesting experience!
