Tour programme
- Meeting and Preparation:
We meet at the foot of the Planpraz-Brévent cable car or at the foot of the Aiguille du Midi cable car (depending on the weather conditions). Once at the summit, the take-off takes place after a few steps on a gentle slope, facing Mont Blanc and 1,000 m above the Chamonix valley.
- Start and Flight:
If you wish, you will be able to initiate yourself to piloting under the advice of your instructor. Similarly, if you wish to try some aerobatic tricks, your pilot will do his best to do some during the flight. Finally, the landing is made very gently in the centre town of Chamonix on the close of the Champ du Savoy.
