Frequently Asked Questions

Is paragliding dangerous?

Paragliding is not dangerous when practiced properly. Our monitors, all State-certified, only fly in stable weather conditions to ensure your safety.

How should I dress for the flight?

Sneakers and a windbreaker are recommended. You can also bring your camera (at your own responsibility).

I have vertigo, can I fly?

Vertigo doesn't exist in paragliding because you are not connected to the ground. It is a different sensation, very gentle, as if you were carried by the air.

Is there a weight limit?

Beyond 100kg, please contact us to check the wind conditions. We accept children in tandem from 4 years old.
