FAQ
From what age can we fly?
Children can fly from the age of 5 if they really want to and without being forced to. However, if a child refuses to fly at the last moment, reimbursement will not be possible.
For education, the minimum age is 12.
How long does the flight last?
Flight time depends on a number of factors. The first is your weight! The lighter you are, the longer you stay in the air on an altitude flight. But this is not true on an ascent flight where weight is less important. The second factor depends on the air mass conditions of the day. An air mass is said to be “carrier” when it extends the flight time, we discover it at the time of flight, it is difficult to predict and we do with what nature wants to offer us. The flight time is therefore random on altitude flights but the gliding sensations are always the same.
Is paragliding risky?
Paragliding is a sport with risks, like all sports. Our instructors are professionals who do their utmost to reduce them, but zero risk does not exist. Beware of companies that claim the opposite!
What should I wear for my paragliding flight?
In winter, your usual ski outfit is enough, but don't forget gloves, sunglasses and neck warmers. In summer, bring at least pants, a windbreaker jacket and walking shoes or sneakers with adherent soles. During the flight, the temperature drops by about ten degrees.
