Lac Léman, a dream spot for a first paragliding experience
You'll be flying over Lake Geneva! At 580 km², it's one of Europe's largest lakes. It is shared by France and Switzerland over a total length of around 72km. You'll fly over the eastern part of the lake in Switzerland, with breathtaking views of the Château de Chillon, Rochers de Naye, Pointe d'Aveneyre and Dent de Jaman. Thierry's paragliding school is staffed by experienced, state-certified instructors.
Course of the flight :
- Welcome by your instructor in Montreux and transfer to Sonchaux.
- You'll be kitted out and briefed on the positions to adopt during the different phases of flight: take-off, flight and landing.
- Take off and enjoy an extraordinary 20-minute flight over the most beautiful parts of Switzerland!
- Make the most of the 1,000-meter vertical drop as you glide along the various updrafts of warm air.
Whether for yourself or as a gift for a loved one, a paragliding experience is the perfect activity for adrenalin and thrill-seekers. It's also an excellent gift idea, or one to organize for future brides and grooms as part of an EVG/EVJF in Switzerland.

The experience itself was of course very pleasant, and there were no safety concerns. On the other hand, for a baptism, they weren't very reassuring about our health/safety questions, answering lightly, even in a slightly mocking tone. Maybe they just don't like the French :)

A great experience for my 15 year old daughter who found it "incredible" thanks to the kindness and professionalism of the instructor, Patricia, who put her at ease by explaining step by step so that she could get the most out of her flight!

A magnificent experience over Lake Geneva! It was my first paragliding flight and I'll always treasure my memories of it. It went by too quickly! Thanks to the whole team for the detailed information before the flight, the smiling welcome on the day, and thanks to Nicolas for the flight. I'd definitely recommend it.
