Here are some of the best skydiving spots in India.

Pondicherry (Tamil Nadu)

This skydive offers beautiful and unique views of the town and the sea beside it. You can really feel the curvature of the earth as you see the contrast of the green coastline against the ragged blue sea and pristine skies.

Aamby Valley (Maharashtra)

One of the most beautiful spots in India, it is really a treat to skydive in this gorgeous valley. You will soar above the rocky peaks of mountains and the soft timber of beautiful woodland.

Dhana (Madhya Pradesh)

Take a once in a lifetime free fall from 4,000 feet. You will begin far above the clouds before you descend to the luscious green landscape below.

Narnaul (Haryana)

Located near the capital city of Delhi, this stunning skydive has been set up by the local authorities to promote adventure tourism in the region. The jump affords unique views of the plains and villages of the area.

Let’s take a look at 4 of the most extreme skiing and snowboarding locations for you to enjoy this winter.

Big Sky (Montana, U.S.A)

The clue is in the name with this one. At Big Sky, you can snowboard down the mountain from the highest peak with the wind in your hair and the sky open before you.

Kirkwood (California, U.S.A)

With an average annual snowfall of 40ft, the high altitude open chutes, bowls and steep runs of this horseshoe-shaped ridgeline make for thrilling snowboarding. This is a relatively small resort and can serve as a welcome break from the hubbub of some of the bigger resorts.

Livigno (Italy)

Livigno is a popular resort, because it combines wide-open slopes with a low-price party atmosphere. The food and drink is duty-free, and the high altitude makes for a clear and refreshing break.

Mayrhofen (Austria)

Known as one of the best snow parks in Europe, you have access to 312 miles of trails and 160 lifts. Navigate the labyrinth of towns and villages as you adventure through the beautiful landscape.

It sources from the Lake Nyanza (Victoria) at Ripon Falls near Jinja, where this exciting rafting takes place. If the flow on the river is controlled, you can book your raft any day of the year, except Christmas Day and New Years Day.

You should carry a small backpack with dry clothes to change into at the end of the raft, which will be kept on the vehicle that will meet you at the finish point. Even if you don’t fell into the water, you will certainly get wet from the splashes. However, due to the Ecuador weather climate, the water is always warm.

If you are scared of crocodiles, don’t worry they don’t like populated areas. However, don’t be surprised if you see a flock of bats flying over your head in the middle of the day!
