Learn to fly a paraglider
Paragliding is the flagship activity of the Hautes-Alpes. The paragliding course is accessible from 14 years old. It will put a smile on the faces of young and old alike! On site, you’ll meet a team of passionate and experienced instructors. All united around the same passion, they’ll make your training an unforgettable experience. Once you’ve completed the initial course, you’ll be offered options to develop your flying skills to the next level. We think there’s no better place to learn than in the French Alps, if you agree and it’s up your street, get in touch and we’ll be happy to answer your questions.
The beginner course takes place over 5 days. You’ll start slow – on a school slope, as you familiarise yourself with the handling of the wing. Once you’re ready, we’ll support you to do your first proper flight! Our teaching method: adapting to each individual to ensure a safe progression. At the end of the course, we follow-up personally to see how it went!
