What is and how does tandem paragliding work

A paraglider is a means of free flight consisting of a rectangular-shaped steerable glider made of lightweight fabric to which the pilot‘s seat (or harness) is attached. Using this instrument, paragliders take off gently from the top of a slope or steep mountain faces to descend to the valley.
How does tandem flying work? It is very simple: once the take-off point is reached, equipment is prepared. Firmly harnessed with the pilot, it only takes a few meters of downhill run-up to allow the paraglider to open and take off. At that point, updrafts will allow the vehicle to move forward until landing.

The main take-off points on Lake Garda

Among the main paragliding locations on Lake Garda‘s eastern shore, there are the quaint villages of Toscolano Maderno and Gardone Riviera, which offer Mount Pizzocolo as their primary and most famous takeoff point in the Brescian Pre-Alps. Flying from here it is possible to fly over the lake to admire its western slope and much of the Po Valley from above.
On the border between Lombardy and Trentino, there are other areas suitable for tandem paragliding that overlook the Ledro Valley where you can enjoy incredible views of pastures, rock faces, and the characteristic Ledro Lake.
Another important takeoff point is on the western shore of Lake Garda where Mount Baldo, a mountain massif in the Gardesane Pre-Alps, can be reached starting from the small town of Malcesine.

A wonderful first flying experience! Alberto - with whom I flew - but also all the other instructors present, who were very good and professional, and above all capable of putting you at ease right from the start. The only flaw was the timing: we arrived perfectly on time, but the activity took place quite late (e.g. there was also a girl who should have launched an hour earlier, but was still waiting for someone to tell her something). An experience I will definitely repeat!

It was a great experience, freedom's website however did not warn me that the day before I would have to write to the expert who would accompany me on this adventure. Because of this we did not make the flight at the scheduled time but later! The flight doesn't last 25 minutes but a little less, otherwise a really good experience, the group was nice and friendly, no need to be afraid, I recommend it to everyone!!!!!

A beautiful experience! The tranquillity of being guided by expert hands and being led by the wind was really exciting. The whole experience was enriched by the jovial, fun and deeply human atmosphere of the staff, who were able to lighten the moments of tension and offer great professionalism! Well done to everyone and thanks in particular to Giulio for the emotions experienced and the laughter shared!!!

Amazing experience in expert hands!

Alan, Giorgio and Roberto gifted us with an amazing experience, floating up in the sky with a stunning view on lake Garda. The drive up the mountain with them is an experience itself. The road is very suggestive and they made it even better by sharing lots of insights about the area and their personal experience.nHighly recommended!!!
