Everything was well arranged. The Takamaka team was very friendly. From the landing site in Doussard you take a bus to the top of the col de la forclaz. Our 12-year-old son went to the departure point with his supervisor and a few other people. If you, as a parent, want to go up and have a look, I advise you to drive up at least 40 minutes in advance. You then have to park and walk another 10 minutes up. They land back at the parking lot where the van also leaves. The extra package to take photos and video along the way is definitely recommended. You will get them transferred to your phone immediately afterwards. Our son asked if his instructor would also like to do some stunts while flying and he did. And our son was also allowed to fly the parachute himself for a while. In a word, it was TOP!
