Full description
Enjoy a 20-minute paragliding flight and experience for yourself the thrill of free flight. Starting from Reggello (FI), you will admire the Chianti hills from the sky.
Relying on a professional pilot, you will fly in total safety: all you have to do is let yourself be carried away by the ascending wind currents and savour every minute of this incredible adventure!
What we will do
The rendezvous is near Reggello, in the province of Florence. Here we will meet the pilot and, on board an off-road vehicle, we will reach the take-off area. Once there, we will begin our preparation for the flight.
We will have a short briefing on the activity and the rules of behaviour to be adopted during the various phases of the flight. We will also do some simulations and all the routine checks. Afterwards, we will settle into our harnesses, ready to take off. The instructions will be very easy to follow: just a short run-up with the pilot and, in no time, we will be in the air!
During the 15-20 minutes of flight we will be able to take photos and videos, but above all admire the splendid view of the Chianti region. We will even be able to ask the pilot to try driving the paraglider, performing a few simple flight manoeuvres.
The descent towards the ground will be slow and gradual, until the soft landing, which will take place in the same area as the meeting point. The activity lasts a total of about three hours and ends with the return to the starting point.
Who it is aimed at
The activity is suitable for everyone. No special physical skills or flying knowledge are needed: the passenger's task is easy and natural, all you need is a little courage, to be in good health and to be able to take a short jog. You can participate from the age of 14 and weighing between 45 and 110 kg.
Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent.
