Stand on a Swiss‑designed suspension bridge and step off into a 160m drop above the Bhote Kosi Gorge. This full‑day trip from Kathmandu combines Himalayan scenery, practical safety briefings, and one of the world’s longest commercial free‑falls.

The bus leaves Kathmandu before dawn and the valley light strips the city away, revealing a road that angles toward the high ridges and the sound of a river carving stone. By mid-morning the steel suspension bridge appears, spanned across a gorge where the Bhote Kosi dares you with a thunderous voice. Jumpers clip in, walk to the edge, and the world narrows to the drop — 160 meters of pure free-fall above a channel that has cut its teeth through Himalayan metamorphics.
