The hill station offers a variety of activities for visitors. One of the most popular is paragliding, which allows tourists to soar high and enjoy the natural beauty below.
Dr. Sunil Bhavsar, a tourist, said, “I am enjoying paragliding. I spent more than 5 minutes in the air. I had a good experience, and the instructor was also excellent.”
