A tandem paragliding flight is a great
introduction into the sport and a spectacular way to see the mountains
from a different perspective!
Launching is easy and after a few short running steps
you'll be lifted away skyward, then settle into your
harness (seat) and enjoy this amazing experience. If the conditions
allow Dennis will encourage you to fly the glider yourself, an
experience that you'll never forget!

We can fly from different sites within the area. Our
local site 'Plaine Joux', is 750m above the valley floor and has a flight time of 15-30 minutes depending upon conditions.
The flight cost is 70 Euros and includes the car ride up to the launch
site.
Close by the
'Aiguille d'Varan', a special site that's accessible only by 4x4,
is
1060m above the valley floor and has amazing views with a flight
time of 20-30 minutes. The flight cost is 90 Euros and includes the ride
up. (This flight is only available in the spring
and summer after the winter snow has melted)
In
Chamonix the popular 'PlanPraz' site 1050m
above Chamonix town has a flight time of 20-35 minutes. The flight cost is 90 Euros, though
doesn't include the cable car cost (10 Euros) that's required to access
this site. (Unfortunately this site will be closed
during the summer of 2008 for refurbishment)
Passenger requirements. The passenger needs to be reasonably fit and able to
run a few paces and needs to bring some windproof clothing, ankle
protected walking boots and gloves.
Don't forget a camera!
Tandem flights are generally available at any time though it may be
necessary to book especially during the spring and summer. A credit card
number will give you priority, though no money is asked for until after
the flight. Also, no charge is made if the weather is poor and we are
unable to fly. However, a charge is made if the client doesn't show up.
We accept Visa and MasterCard.
Tandem Gift Vouchers are available for that special present....
