Mont Saint-Michel: an exceptional location for a microlight flight

Located in the Manche département (50), in the Normandy region, Mont Saint-Michel is a French heritage marvel listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It's a rocky islet at the heart of which stands the Mont Saint-Michel abbey.

You can choose from 2 types of microlight:

• Pendular ULM is a very popular type of ULM: it's a two-seater with a delta-type wing that you'll find on hang-gliders.
• The ULM Autogire is a two-seater ultralight aircraft with a rotating propeller much like a helicopter. This aircraft is particularly fast and maneuverable.

Course of the flight :

• Welcome at the airfield: briefing on safety instructions and the flight schedule.
• Equipment (helmet, jacket) and boarding of the microlight.
• Take-off: 20 to 60 minutes flight over the Normandy and Brittany landscapes. You can communicate with the pilot throughout the flight.
• Soft landing on the airfield and debriefing with the professional pilot.

Several options are available:

• Flight over the Mont (20 min.): you'll fly around the Mont Saint-Michel or vertically over the Mont.
• Bay flight (30 mins): discover Mont Saint-Michel, the bay and the Champeaux cliffs.
• Emotional flight (45 mins.): take a trip around the bay of Mont Saint-Michel. You'll discover a wide range of landscapes from the air, including the Champeaux cliffs, the beaches of Carolles and Jullouville, Granville... or on the Breton side: Cherrueix and its long beaches, the bay of Cancale and its bouchots.
• Vol Passion (60 mins.): you can choose the route of your choice from Mont Saint-Michel and the Breton coast (mussel beds, Cherrueix, Cancale, Pointe du Grouin) or the eastern route with the cliffs of Champeaux, Carolles, Jullouville, Granville...

You'll enjoy this activity in exceptional conditions, with a friendly pilot who will give you confidence and guide you through the landscapes to be observed. This activity is ideal as a gift for a loved one who loves thrills and beautiful landscapes, or for future brides and grooms as part of an EVG or EVJF.
