Along with Pokhara, Travel magazine of NatGeo has advised another 11 sites around the globe on its best spring trips.

The magazine has written, “Soaring over the Pokhara valley delivers adrenaline-junkie Himalaya views without the hiking. Pokhara, a gateway to Nepal’s Annapurna region, is considered one of the world’s top spots for paragliding due, in part, to jaw-dropping views of glaciers, lakes, and snow-covered peaks. No experience is required to ride with an instructor on a Sunrise Paragliding tandem flight. Options include the relatively tame Cloud Buster (20- to 30-minute) scenic flight, a longer (45- to 60-minute) Cross-Country tour, and the spinning-and-spiraling Acrobatic Flight. ”

Additionally, ” Before launching from Sarangkot (2,000 feet above the Pokhara Valley), snap a pic of Pokhara’s majestic mountain triple crown-26,795-foot Dhaulagiri, 26,040-foot Annapurna II, and 26,781-foot Manaslu”.

In this list other trips or destinations listed are Cape town- South Africa, Eastern Europe. Central Park, Olympic Park, Philadelphia of USA, Great barrier reef of Australia,Suzhou of China, balloon rally of USA, Los Glaciers National Park of Argentina, Bubble Lodges of France and Agoshima of Japan.
