Paragliding is an easily accessible aerial sport for everyone! Even for people with disabilities.

You'll learn the basics of paragliding from the very first days, and then gradually start practising inflation on the training slope. If weather conditions are favorable, the third and fourth days will be devoted to your very first solo flight !

This is your chance to put into practice what you've learned in theory. Your first take-offs and landings will of course take place under the watchful eye of our experienced instructors. They will be in constant radio contact with you, guiding you from a distance. The rest of your training will be punctuated by technical exercises both in the air and on the ground, interspersed with theory sessions on subjects such as meteorology, flight mechanics and aerology!

The easiest way is to let yourself be tempted! Some people have tried it... they've never had any problems.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO TAKE PARAGLIDING COURSES NEAR GRENOBLE, LYON AND CHAMBÉRY ?

As mentioned above, our paragliding school is based in Lumbin. As such, it enjoys close proximity to one of the world's most famous flying sites : Saint-Hil'! Every year, the world's biggest paragliding event takes place here: the Coupe Icare ! We're just 20 minutes from Grenoble and 30 minutes from Chambéry. To get here from Lyon, you'll need at least 1h30 (record to beat 😉 ).

WHAT CAN YOU ACHIEVE WITH A PARAGLIDER ?

You won't believe it! Paragliding is a free-flight discipline which, over the years, has evolved into a whole range of different activities. Here are just a few examples :

Cross-country

The distance record for paragliding is 417 km in one day (approximately Reims - Clermont-Ferrand). And without talking about a record, it's not difficult to cover several dozen kilometers when you take up paragliding.

Aerobatics

For adrenaline junkies, it's even possible to fly upside down on acro flights, and experience the thrills and chills of a roller-coaster ride! However, this highly technical discipline is aimed at highly experienced pilots with a taste for thrills. Unlike skydiving, there's no question of freefall. Instead, pilots perform acrobatic maneuvers in the air, such as Infinity tumbling, Mc twist and Misty.

Hike and Fly

Sports fans of trail running, hiking and other mountain activities won't be left out in the cold, thanks to the technological developments of recent years. It's now possible to fly on Hike and Fly outings with equipment weighing less than your water bottle! Practical when you don't want to break your knees on the way down from a summit!

There are still many ways to practice paragliding, but one value remains common to all of them. Contemplation and calm during gentle phases of flight.

Not tempted yet ?

If you don't feel like jumping into the deep end yet. You can get off to a gentle start with a tandem paragliding flight. In fact, our school also offers a variety of first flights. From Zen to Sensation, these tandem paragliding flights can be a good way of getting to grips with the sensations of flight, and confirming your interest in paragliding. Either way, you're in for an unforgettable experience !
