We recommend this type of flight, Rather for young children or people with a very high level of apprehension. In fact, this paragliding jump lasts approximately 4 to 7 minutes. As a result, the landing phase comes when the person begins to feel good in the air. For motivated people who want to make the most of this experience, we recommend at least the panoramic flight.
