Spanish paragliders land near Booni
CHITRAL, July 22: Two paragliders from Spain – Juan Robles and Tolo Robles – landed at Khandan Lasht in Upper Chitral near the Government Degree College (Boys) Booni at 21:11 noon on Monday. They reached here after flying over the Zaini Pass at the height of 4,000 feet. The two brothers have come from Spain for paragliding in Pakistan. Tolo Robles is a professional pilot and he took his brother Juan along for adventurism in northern Pakaistan. Both the paragliders touched down one after the other smoothly after encircling four times over the college. “It is beautiful and interesting to be here in Chitral. While flying it was very pleasant with cool winds blowing but it’s too hot here on the ground,” said Tolo Robles while taking off his gliding kit. “We have been in Pakistan for a month now and before coming to Chitral we also adventured in Hunza. Today we took off from the Zaini Pass at the height of 4,000 feet. It was our second adventure in Chitral after Hunza,” said Juan Robles with a smile on his face. ]]>
