Full description
Experience for the first time the tandem paragliding flight in the Canavese region. You will fly over the plains stretching as far as the Ligurian Apennines, admiring the landscape from a unique perspective.
You will fly tandem with a pilot certified by the Aeroclub d'Italia in total comfort and safety: he will take care of every phase of the flight, while you will only have to think about enjoying the view!
What we will do
The meeting is in the province of Turin. Here you will meet the professional pilot and, together, you will go to the take-off base.
After a short briefing on how the paraglider works and on safety rules, you will prepare your equipment and, securely harnessed to each other, you will be ready for take-off. All it takes is a short run-up on the descent and, before you know it, you will be floating in the air.
You will fly over the hills of Piedmont, admiring the breathtaking landscape from above. You will be able to enjoy the panorama in maximum comfort and safety, as the pilot will be in charge of all phases of the flight.
The paragliding flight will last between 10 and 15 minutes, depending on the wind and weather conditions, during which you will be comfortably seated to admire the panoramic spectacle.
The activity lasts a total of 1 hour and ends with a soft landing on grass.
Who it is aimed at
Tandem paragliding is a fantastic experience and open to everyone! The only requirements are the weight of the participants, which must be between 40 kg and 100 kg. No specific knowledge or special skills are needed, you just need to be able to take a short run to take flight.
Vertigo while sitting comfortably in the air does not develop. As for nausea, in rare cases it is possible to suffer from it just as on a ship, car or plane, which is why it is advisable not to overdo it with food and especially alcoholic beverages.
