On this paragliding initiation day, you will get familiar with all of the equipment necessary to fly and learn how to handle yourself in-flight.

Using the most modern equipment you will experience how to handle and develop control of the paraglide, both whilst airborne and in preparation for take-off. The ultimate goal is to learn how to master take-off, control and manipulation in the air, and finally how to safely and precisely land.

Your first flights will give you a taste of what it is like to fly with your instructor by your side, shortly afterwards you will be improving autonomously with the support and direction of the instructors. In order to progress quickly, direct and immediate feedback will be given on your take-off and landing attempts.

If the initiation day gives the desire to continue with more training you can do this through the Licence Course.
