Full description
Experience the thrills of paragliding and enjoy an updraft flight over the coast of Monopoli, in the province of Bari.
Take off from a panoramic viewpoint and as you fly admire the vast expanses of olive trees and the sea on the horizon for a unique and evocative experience.
You'll fly tandem with an experienced pilot and don't have to do anything except sit back and enjoy the feeling of freedom of flight.
What we will do
The meeting point is the Loggia di Pilato, in contrada Impalata in Monopoli, a panoramic viewpoint popular with paragliding enthusiasts. Together with the pilot, we will hold a flight preparation briefing in which all the rules of behaviour and safety will be explained.
Wearing theharness and firmly attached to the pilot, it will take only a few metres of running to take off and enter the flow of the updrafts. At that point we will begin to fly in the direction of the wind above the centuries-old olive groves that characterise the Apulian landscape, with the sea on the horizon.
The flight will last about 20 minutes, depending on the currents, and will end with a soft landing a short distance from the take-off point. The total duration of the activity, including transfers, briefing and flight, is about 1.5 hours.
