Any questions?

A team at your service

Yes, it’s definitely possible to go paragliding even if you’re afraid of heights! Paragliding is a very gentle and controlled activity. The instructor will guide you every step of the way, and the takeoff is smooth and slow, with no sensation of freefall.

Updrafts are pockets of air that rise naturally into the atmosphere. This happens when warm air near the ground is heated by the sun: it expands and rises into the sky. In paragliding, these currents are used to gain altitude. Paragliders aim to position themselves within these updrafts to stay airborne longer and even climb higher.

If you’re prone to motion sickness or have ear problems (such as sensitivity to changes in pressure), please let us know before the flight! We’ll do our best to make the experience as smooth as possible.

The best time for paragliding is generally late morning or afternoon. This is because weather conditions are more stable and thermal currents are more predictable.
Of course! It’s perfectly fine to fly while wearing glasses or contact lenses. However, it’s recommended that you wear glasses with a strap to prevent them from falling off during the flight.
No, you don't need any experience to go paragliding. Tandem flights are supervised by qualified instructors!
