Chamonix: a sublime setting for a paragliding flight

You can paraglide over Chamonix and its glaciers, right in front of Mont Blanc. It's the perfect opportunity to take your first paragliding flight amid breathtaking scenery, and remember it for the rest of your life!

All our instructors are fully qualified and insured by the FFVL (Fédération Française de Vol Libre).

Course of the paragliding flight:

• Once you've reached the summit and the flight zone, you'll be fitted with a helmet + a briefing on how the flight works and the safety rules to follow.
• A gentle take-off on a gentle slope facing Mont Blanc.
• You'll be able to climb to an altitude of over 2,000 meters and admire the village of Chamonix, which will then seem miniature.
• You can also try your hand at piloting under the guidance of your instructor.
• Debriefing and feedback with your instructor.

Several options are available:

• Discovery flight (20 min): April to June and September to mid-December. You'll fly over the impressive Glacier des Bossons. You can learn to fly in complete safety, in the midst of an incredible landscape, under the guidance of your instructor.
• Freestyle and XXL flight (45min-1h) : a large part of the Mont Blanc massif, its glaciers and numerous peaks. You'll learn how to pilot the paraglider yourself, and try out some freestyle tricks. Make sure you have the right equipment for a long flight (jacket, windbreaker and gloves).
• Flight to Aiguille du Midi (3h including 1h flight): descend the snow ridge overlooking the Chamonix valley to reach the take-off point. Flight over rocky faces and world-famous glaciers such as the Vallée Blanche, the Aiguilles de Chamonix... Flight not available between July 1 and August 31. Pricedoes not include cable car ride up to Aiguille du Midi, to be paid on site.
• Flight for children under 10 (10 to 20 min), only available in the morning in calm weather conditions.

Paragliding is the perfect activity to organize for an EVG or EVJF. Original and unforgettable, the future bride and groom will remember it for the rest of their lives!
