A paraglider is a means of free flight consisting of a steerable wing to which the pilot’s harness is attached. The many specialized schools offer tandem paragliding flights and provide the best pilots. This way, all enthusiasts who do not have a flying license can let the wind currents carry them away safely.
Before takeoff, you wear helmets and harnesses, to then take part in a briefing on safety measures. Then, standing firmly by the instructor, you take a run-up and soar into the air. During the flight you can also try to fly the paraglider with the help of the experienced pilot and have fun in between maneuvers.
No physical preparation is required. Just be in good health and meet certain weight limits. Paragliding is an activity closely related to weather. You fly only with favorable weather conditions, so the date must be confirmed the day before.
Tivoli is among the most impressive flight sites around Rome. You take off from the slopes of the Tiburtini Mountains and admire from above the beautiful landscapes of the Roman countryside that frame important historic buildings. These include Renaissance villas such as Villa d’Este and Villa Adriana, UNESCO World Heritage Sites. In addition to the view of the city of Rome, on clearer days you can make out the sea at Ostia.
Another take-off point is Trevignano Romano, which offers real picture-postcard scenery. With a paragliding flight in Trevignano, you can fly over the green hills surrounding Lake Bracciano and other areas that belong to the regional nature park. Also visible from above is the Orsini-Odescalchi Castle, which occupies a dominant position on the shores of the lake.
Moving away from Rome, two other locations for paragliding in Lazio are Poggio Bustone and Norma. Flying in Poggio Bustone, in the province of Rieti, offers sweeping views of the Piana Reatina, the Sabine Mountains, and the many villages and shrines that stand in the area. With a flight to Norma, however, one flies over the Agro Pontino and can catch a glimpse of Ponza Island on the horizon.
The cost of a paragliding flight in Lazio ranges from 120 to 130 euros. The price includes all the necessary equipment, but you’ll have to bring your own comfortable clothes and sneakers or hiking shoes. In colder periods, a windbreaker is recommended.
Everyone dreams of flying, and there is no more original gift than a tandem paragliding flight together with an experienced pilot. It is the perfect gift for any occasion, whether it is a birthday, graduation party, wedding, or any other important event. Book a flight for someone special, you’ll be gifting them the great sense of freedom that only paragliding can offer.

I already had a paragliding flight in Tenerife so that I can compare the experiences and this flight with Andrea was absolutely amazing! He is professional, empathic and definitely funny, the flight is safe and he explains wind and details with care and attention to the passenger. The natural scenario is incredible and you can enjoy each single minute up there! Absolutely to try! Grazie!!!!
