Parahawking

Parahawking is a unique activity combining paragliding with elements of falconry. Birds of prey are trained to fly with paragliders, guiding them to thermals for in-flight rewards.

Parahawking was developed by British falconer Scott Mason. In 2001, he began a round-the-world trip in Pokhara, Nepal, where many birds of prey - such as the griffon vulture, steppe eagle and black kite - can be found. While taking a tandem paragliding flight, Mason had the opportunity to see raptors in flight, and realized that combining the sport of paragliding with his skills as a falconer could offer others the same unique experience.
