Tour programme
- Meeting & Preparation:
The day before the flight, we choose the meeting point in the Aix Les Bains region that is best suited to the weather conditions. We will meet 15min before the booked time and then proceed to one of the four take-off areas. It will either be the Col du Sapenay, Le Revard, Chamoux-sur-Gelon or Verel. There, you will be able to get to know your pilot and try out your high-quality equipment before your first paragliding flight.
- Start and Flight:
After a briefing on the take-off procedure, you and your licensed pilot, who will be at your side, will be able to take-off. One, two, three, four, five quick steps together and your feet will slowly leave the ground. This paragliding flight has just started! Now you can let the pilot do his job he knows so well and sit comfortably in your harness.
- After Landing:
After these 10 to 20min of total happiness, we will get closer to our destination 600m further down. All you have to do is prepare for landing, the equivalent of a small jump. You have now mastered the skies! Shall we do it again?
