Les détails du vol
Description of the Acrobatics Flight
The Acrobatics flight is not only about gaining altitude, it’s also about taking your time!
A paragliding baptism marked by aerobatics, thermals, and thrilling sensations… Annecy Parapente offers it to you in an absolutely breathtaking setting.
This flight takes place only in the afternoon, to ensure that weather conditions allow you to enjoy the thermals. The 25 to 30 minutes of flight time let you truly discover the activity and leave time to wander. Once in the air, you can take the controls if you wish and if the conditions permit. This flight is also a unique opportunity for pilots who want a guided pedagogical experience and to discover the sensations of an acrobatic flight.
This flight is available from the end of February until October.
How the Acrobatics Baptism Flight Unfolds
Your meeting point is in the town of Talloires-Montmin, about thirty minutes from Annecy. You’ll be welcomed by our team, who will explain everything you need to know before taking off. Then, our pilots will take you to the launch site, where you’ll be equipped with a harness and helmet.
Once attached to the paraglider, you’ll walk towards a gentle slope to inflate the wing and then accelerate to take off. Don’t worry – at no point will you need to jump into the void.
During the Acrobatics baptism flight, the pilot will head for the areas with the best thermals to gain altitude. You will experience thrilling sensations at different moments during the flight, near the mountains or over Lake Annecy.
Just before landing, you’ll need to stand up again and take a few steps as you touch down – no problem at all.
After landing and packing up the paraglider, we’ll take you back to the starting point by shuttle.
