Combine a paragliding flight in Gréolières with a canyoning trip in the Loup gorges near Nice!
This canyoning and paragliding trip is the perfect way to discover the Alpes-Maritimes from different points of view and try out different sports! While your paragliding flight in Gréolières will give you aerial views of the Niçois hinterland, your canyoning excursion in the Vallée du Loup will let you discover its secret corners up close! You don't need any paragliding or canyoning experience to join the excursion, just the ability to swim and run! Throughout your activities, professional guides will be on hand to guide you and make sure you have an unforgettable day.
Your trip near Nice begins with a paragliding flight in Gréolières, where you will meet your instructor. You'll then take a 4x4 to the take-off site to prepare for your flight. Thanks to the instructor's advice, you'll be able to take off serenely and enjoy a magical paragliding experience in the Alpes-Maritimes! For around 10 to 15 minutes, you'll soar over the wild, unspoilt environment of the Loup valley and its hilltop villages.
Afterwards, you'll have the chance to enjoy a break for lunch before continuing the excursion with canyoning in the Gorges du Loup.
