Paragliding: what it is and how it works
A paraglider is a free-flight vehicle consisting of a steerable fabric wing and a harness for positioning yourself and controlling the canopy. To fly, paragliding takes advantage of updrafts. You take off from a slope with a short run-up and gradually descend to a soft landing. Thanks to tandem flight, everyone can try the experience. You fly a tandem paraglider firmly harnessed to a professional pilot. Flights last 15 to 30 minutes depending on the wind.
Where to go paragliding in Sicily
Paragliding and hang gliding flight sites can be found all over the island. For paragliding in Palermo, the best take-off points are Cefalù and Pollina. In Agrigento you can fly over the sea or inland. On the west coast, paragliders fly in Taormina, Letojanni or Milazzo. In Caltanissetta you fly over the Valley of the Platani.
How much does a tandem paragliding flight cost?

Mario's First Flight... and more
I must honestly say that it was not a good experience. It was WONDERFULLY AND ESPECIALLY FABULOUS. Apart from the personal feelings I had, I have to thank all the staff for their professionalism, helpfulness and above all their friendliness throughout the whole experience. I hope as soon as possible to be able to repeat this flight, so see you soon.... Bye Bye from Mario
