Full description
A flight over the lake? There’s nothing more spectacular!
At Lake Fiastra, an adventure awaits that will completely change your perspective. Take off in a tandem paraglider with a professional pilot and enjoy 15–30 minutes of flying, following the air currents.
The azure waters of the lake, nestled amongst the mountains, are ready to serve as your mirror!
What we will do
Please arrive 10 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Fiastra (MC), on the shores of the lake of the same name in the Marche region .
Here you will meet your pilot and board the organisation’s vehicle for a journey of around 20 minutes to the take-off point, situated 900 metres higher up.
Once at the take-off point, you’ll take part in a briefing on how the paraglider works and on safety and behaviour guidelines . Securely strapped to your pilot, you’ll take flight with a short run-up.
Below you will see Lake Fiastra, a large artificial reservoir in the Monti Sibillini National Park, created in the 1950s following the construction of a dam, and renowned for its deep blue waters.
The scenic flight will last between 15 and 30 minutes, depending on the strength of the updrafts that will carry the paraglider down to a gentle landing near the original meeting point.
Taking into account preparation and travel times, the activity lasts a total of around 1. 5 hours and will end at the meeting point.
Who it is aimed at
This activity is easy and open to anyone who fancies a go at flying. Tandem paragliding requires no prior experience or special skills.
There are no age restrictions (minors must have the authorisation of their parents or legal guardians) . You simply need to weigh between 35 and 100 kg.
Participants must be in normal physical and mental condition and able to run a short distance of a few metres at take-off and cushion the landing with their legs (as if jumping down from a single step) upon landing.
The experience is not recommended for pregnant women, those with heart conditions, or anyone recovering from joint injuries.
