Full description
Experience the extraordinary experience of thermal paragliding, where you can admire breathtaking views and realise your dream of soaring through the air, even reaching high altitudes if you wish.
Taking off from Cavallaria, you will fly in tandem with a national instructor for a duration of 20 to 40 minutes, depending on the conditions of the day.
You will be able to observe the Canavese Pre-Alps, a band of mountainous relief south of the Alps that forms a link with the Po Valley, the eastern shores , and the Ivrea Moraine Serre, a relief of glacial origin.
It will be an unforgettable adventure!
What we will do
The meeting point is Baio Dora, near Turin. Once you have parked your car, a shuttle will take you to the take-off area.
In order to fly in thermals, we will need to have the best thermal conditions, so we will take advantage of the right 'aerological window' to fly high and far!
From Cavallaria, we will take off together after a short run-up, greeting the Canavese Pre-Alps overlooking the moraine greenhouses. The paraglider will then take us along the eastern shore to Ivrea, about 10 km south of the take-off point.
Again depending on the aerological conditions, we will adjust our positions to make the flight smoother, lower in altitude or climb higher to savour thethrill of altitude.
During the flight, which will last between 20 and 40 minutes, you will also be able to perform some turns if you wish, trying to manoeuvre the paraglider yourself. Thanks to video footage taken with GoPro, you will relive all the best moments of the experience.
Thelanding, carried out by the instructor, will take place using an airbag system that will make it comfortable and without the need to use your legs.
Between transfers, briefing, pre-flight preparation and actual flight, the activity lasts about 2 hours in total.
Who it is aimed at
Tandem flying is for everyone, aged 4 and up.
You must be in good health and not exceed the weight limit of 110 kg.
Accompanying persons are welcome, but they are advised to stay at the landing site to have a better view of the flight.
