From the Col de la Forclaz, the horizon unfolds before you, offering a clear view of La Tournette, the Dents de Lanfon, and Le Semnoz. A site well worth the detour: perched at an altitude of about 1,450 meters, the Col de la Forclaz is a legendary paragliding destination in Europe. With ideal flying conditions and an exceptional panorama, why miss out?

The joys of paragliding for your child

Is your little one ready to spread their wings? If they’re bursting with excitement at the thought of feeling like a bird, treat them to a maiden flight that’s truly unforgettable! Imagine how proud you’ll feel watching them take off with such enthusiasm—their eyes full of dreams, their smile reaching for the sky.

Meanwhile, they’ll discover a magical view from above the clouds: gliding through the air like a butterfly, these sensations will stay with them forever. Your child will push their own limits and overcome their fears by letting go completely! Of course, they won’t be alone: the tandem flight is led by a highly experienced (and very friendly!) pilot.

Why choose paragliding for your child?

  • Even the youngest children, starting at age 3, can play with the wind.
  • The equipment is perfectly suited to their size, whether it's the harness or the helmet.
  • Takeoff takes place in the calmest possible conditions, in the morning, to ensure the smoothest possible flights.
  • Your budding explorer can, if they wish, take the controls under the instructor’s supervision!
  • Looking for a thrill? A paragliding instructor can introduce your child to the joys of a more dynamic flight.
  • Optional: photos and videos to share with family and friends.
 

Everything is designed to meet your little adventurer’s desires and needs. It’s up to them!

Is this an adventure for a group?

Come on, everyone take off! Dad, Mom, brothers, and sisters can all fly at the same time with other instructors. It’s a great chance to wave to each other from the sky—with Lake Annecy and the surrounding mountains as a backdrop.

From the ground to the sky—how does it work?

“Wings have grown on my back!”

Soaring above the landscape: your child is on their way to their first paragliding experience. And we’re watching them (very) closely!

  • The instructor welcomes your child and explains the equipment (paraglider, harness, helmet), while reassuring them about safety and the smoothness of the flight.
  • The instructor adjusts and checks the harness and helmet.
  • A briefing allows your child to explain each step of the in-flight experience.
  • It's time! The instructor guides your child down the slope and cheers them on as they take off.
  • Once in the air, the instructor explains what’s happening and shows him the scenery (he’ll become an expert on the geography of Annecy!).
 

Is your child about to touch down again? Their experienced partner will walk them through each step to ensure a smooth landing. Just imagine the sparkle in their eyes!

Feel free to choose a driver if you’d like.

Paragliding with confidence

“Dad, Mom, I want to fly like a superhero!”

Does the thought of your child soaring above the ground make you nervous? Are you worried they might be scared? Paragliding is certainly an accessible activity, but it comes with extremely strict safety rules. Everything is designed to combine peace of mind with thrills: so once you’re up there, all you have to do is take in the view! Here are our commitments.

  • Delta Evasion carefully selects its certified professional pilots, all of whom have many years of experience in free flight.
  • The instructors are like doting parents who are used to working with children. Explaining things in simple terms, building trust, using humor, and showing patience: nothing is left to chance.
  • Stuffed animals are allowed on paragliding flights! Your little one’s best friend will be there to share in the excitement of that first takeoff and throughout the entire activity.
 

All summer long, on Wednesdays and during school breaks, our team takes children and their families flying at the Col de la Forclaz.

Don't miss out on the chance to experience an aerial adventure!

A team at your service

Paragliding is available for children ages 3 to 12.

We prefer to fly in the morning, when conditions are calm. This way, your child can enjoy a smooth first paragliding experience!

The basics: appropriate clothing (comfortable and warm enough) and protective gear (sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen). And your little one’s favorite stuffed animal, if they’d like!

No, but every parent can take off with their experienced pilot and wave to the whole family from the sky!

No experience is necessary. The flight is supervised by an instructor who takes care of everything.

He’ll feel a sense of lightness, like a bird in flight. And that’s exactly what he’ll tell you after his paragliding session!

Of course! Our instructors are there to guide your child, and your child can ask as many questions as they like during the adventure.
