Bungy Jumping in Nepal

Bungy Jumping in Nepal Overview

Nepal’s first bungee jumping site, designed by New Zealand’s leading business consultants and operated by most experienced jump masters, is situated 160m over the wild Bhote Koshi river, and located close to the Nepal-Tibet border, a three-hour bus ride from Kathmandu. One agency with its full experts is offering this sport in Nepal.

Location: Less than 3 hours outside Kathmandu by Ultimate Bungy Shuttle. You will travel the Arniko (Kathmandu/Lhasa) Highway to within 12km of the Tibet Border and the famous Friendship Bridge.

The Gorge: Ultimate Bungy Nepal takes place on a 166m wide steel suspension bridge over the Bhoti Kosi River.

The Bridge: Swiss designed, especially for bungy 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.

The bridge, that joins two sides of a great valley, is the longest suspension bridge in Nepal. Locals had to walk five hours to cross this river gorge before this bridge was made. Mountian Layers Treks and Expedition (P). LTD.  is proud to organise this Bungy Jumping  program.
