Winter : After taking off on ski, admire the mountains' white coat before landing in the village. 1100m of altitude difference and 10-15 mins flight. Winter 2025-2026 price: 90 € lift pass non included In winter, accessible to all, skiers and non-skiers, depending on the weather and snow conditions, take-off on foot possible. THE TYPICAL TANDEM FLIGHT We schedule a meeting time at our office or at the bottom of the Le Lachat chairlift, and then ride together to the takeoff site, located at the top of Mont Lachat. In the winter, for non-skiers, we can provide all of the necessary gear, and don't worry; several people have donned skis for the very first time when they took their first paragliding flight! If it is possible to take off on foot, we will. After being briefed and geared up by your instructor, a smooth and easy takeoff will allow you to then fully enjoy your flight. If you so desire, during your flight you will be able to pilot the paraglider while exploring Le Grand-Bornand from the sky. The landing will also be smooth and easy, by either sliding a few meters on skis or taking just a few short steps, and as your thoughts still linger high above you will never again look at the sky in the same way! DISCOVERY TANDEM FLIGHT The calm, quiet and panoramic flight where you can discover Le Grand-Bornand from the air. You will even be able to pilot the glider if you wish. We also recommend this flight for children under 13 years old and for those who want to enjoy a gentle glide through the air; the apprehensions before take-off will give way to the wonder of this extraordinary moment of FLYING.
