You’ll travel the Arniko (Kathmandu/Lhasa) Highway to within 12 kilometers of the Tibet Border and the famous Friendship Bridge, to reach the jump location.
The Gorge Cross Culture Trekking takes place on a 166-meter-wide steel suspension bridge over the Bhoti Kosi River. The Swiss-designed bridge was created especially for bungee jumping. Before its construction, locals had to walk for 5 hours just to cross this river gorge. You’ll be weighed before the jump, as different cords are used for different categories of weights. Feel the adrenaline rush begin as you prepare to jump!
Schedule:
You leave Thamel at 6am on a nice bus with your fellow jumpers and those packed to stay a few nights. The journey is about 3.5 hours with a couple of tea-breaks along the way. When we reach the resort – you can see the bridge 5 minutes before arriving! – we’ll introduce you to the bungy staff, give you a safety briefing, weigh you and give you a time slot. Then all you have to do is maintain mental calm until your turn! And don’t forget lunch!
