Description

Tandem paragliding flights, open to everyone. After a gliding take-off, admire the mountains and their blanket of snow before landing in the village! 1,100 metres of vertical drop and a 10–15-minute flight.
Summer: The transition into the third dimension is a smooth one. Extraordinary! Take-off from Le Lachat and landing in the village, a 1,100-metre vertical drop and a 15-minute flight. In winter, accessible to everyone – skiers and non-skiers alike – depending on weather and snow conditions; take-off on foot is 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. Big flight takeoff from Lachat and landing in the village 1100 m of altitude difference from 10 to 15 min of flight. PHOTOS AND VIDEOS Whatever the flight, each monitor is equipped with a camera with boom allowing you to bring back unforgettable memories of your aerial adventure. Delivered on an SD card with 30 to 40 photos and 2 to 3 videos. In supplement. Accessible to all from 20 kg to 80-90 kg. Allow 1h15 for pick up (from the meeting point to the landing). Appointment 10 minutes in advance. Booking required
