Overview

Bhote Koshi Bungee Jumping, operated by Cross Border Travel & Tours, is one of Nepal’s most thrilling and iconic adventure activities.

The jump is conducted from a suspension bridge at a height of 160 meters, making it the highest commercial bungee jump in Nepal. The site not only offers a surge of adrenaline but also provides a stunning natural backdrop of the Himalayan foothills, terraced hillsides, and picturesque Nepalese villages, making the experience unforgettable both visually and physically.

The adventure begins with a well-organized pickup from Kathmandu by Cross Border Travel & Tours, ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey. Along the way, travelers pass through historic towns such as Dhulikhel, known for panoramic mountain views, and Dolalghat, where the Sun Koshi and Bhote Koshi rivers merge. Upon arrival at The Last Resort, Nepal’s premier bungee jumping site, expert instructors provide a thorough safety briefing, harnessing participants securely and offering guidance on jump techniques. The jump itself includes a thrilling freefall, a pendulum swing over the raging river, and breathtaking views of the surrounding canyon, leaving adventurers with an unforgettable adrenaline rush.

Best Season for Bhote Koshi Bungee Jumping

The ideal time to experience Bhote Koshi Bungee Jumping is during Nepal’s dry seasons, which generally fall between late September and early December, and from March to May. During these months, the weather is clear, offering unobstructed views of the Himalayan peaks and ensuring a safer and more enjoyable jump. The spring season (March to May) brings blooming rhododendrons, verdant landscapes, and moderate temperatures, while the autumn season (September to November) provides crisp air, clear skies, and stable weather conditions, perfect for adventure sports.

While it is possible to bungee jump during the monsoon season (June to August), heavy rainfall can make roads slippery, and the river flow stronger, slightly increasing the risk factor. Winter months (December to February) are colder, especially at higher altitudes, but still feasible for those prepared with proper gear. Cross Border Travel & Tours carefully plans trips to ensure participants experience optimal weather conditions, minimizing disruptions and maximizing the thrill and safety of the jump.

Key Considerations:

  • Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) are ideal
  • Monsoon season may involve slippery roads and high river flow
  • Winter is cold, but possible with proper preparation
  • Clear weather ensures breathtaking views and a safe jump
