What is a tandem flight?
The simplest way to experience paragliding.
A tandem flight is the easiest way to feel what paragliding is really about. You fly with an experienced tandem pilot using equipment designed for two people, so you can enjoy the experience without needing to complete a training course first.
Before flying, we brief you clearly, check the conditions and explain what will happen during launch, flight and landing. The aim is to keep the whole thing calm, enjoyable and properly managed.
Like all paragliding, tandem flying is weather dependent. If the conditions are not suitable, we do not force it. We choose the right window and fly when it makes sense.
In the air
Your pilot manages the glider while you experience the view, the quiet and the feeling of free flight.
After landing
Most people land with a grin and a much better understanding of why pilots become obsessed with this sport.
Tandem options
Choose the right experience.
Tandem flights are ideal for people who want the flying experience without starting a full training route. They also work well as gifts.

Next stepIf the tandem flight gives you the bug, the next step is usually a taster day or a structured beginner course.
View trainingThe experience
Quiet, simple and completely different from the ground.
Paragliding is not about speed or noise. It is about reading the air, working with the conditions and seeing familiar places from an entirely different angle.
A tandem flight gives you that experience with the reassurance of flying with someone who knows what they are doing.
