Flight Duration 15 minutes. The most simple, easy and safe way to get in the air! A unique feeling and an experience to remember for a life time! You do not need to know about paragliding. The pilot will explain to you a few things in a short briefing before any flight, and the only thing you need, is to take some fast steps forward. The moment where one step is on mother earth, and the next one in heaven we call air! In no time the glider will take us in the air, you will sit back in your comfortable harness and you will enjoy the view from above! The movement of the glider on the air is smooth until the time your feet touch the ground. Unless you ask from the pilot for some adrenaline. The total duration from the meeting point, drive to take off, get ready, fly, and from landing field drive back to meeting point is 1.5 hour more or less. Have in your mind that paragliding is 100% weather depended activity, so there might be reschedules or cancellations .
