Good News: Astanmarg and Srinagar is now open for paragliding

 Astanmarg and Srinagar are now open for paragliding

Summer is upon us and people everywhere are seeking out an escape, a wreck from this heat. Look no further, because there’s a new child in the town for amusing journey paragliding, and this is Astanmarg, one of the most beautiful locations to go to in Srinagar.

The Kashmir tourism department, in association with a private paragliding firm, has launched adventure paragliding in Srinagar’s Astanmarg.

Located on the outskirts of Srinagar, approximately 27. five km from the city center, Astanmarg is a lush green meadow on the Zabarwaan range. The paragliding will start from Astanmarg top and on to Chandpora ground. With a vertical drop of 2000 ft, if this doesn't excite the adventurous you, we don’t know what will.

One could make online bookings for the paragliding session.

As a pre-flight ritual, experts' gifts there will short the gliders about the tools and give all vital safety information. After this, the gliders can take their flight so one can be of approximately 12-15 minutes. That’s 12-15 minutes of free flight and beautiful views of the valley down below, which includes the snow-protected mountain ranges, Dal Lake, Dachigam National Park, Mahadev Peak, and Mughal Gardens. The touchdown spot is Chandpora, placed at about 5330 ft, in Srinagar.

Srinagar, the summer capital of Kashmir, never runs out of ways to hold visitors hooked and excited. Once you're done with paragliding, you can go to Dal and Anchar lakes, or even head out to Gulmarg, that's every other stunning location you must not omit whilst in Srinagar.
