Take to the skies in summer and winter with the Ecole de Parapente des Portes du Soleil, in tandem or as an introduction to solo flight, paragliding or speedriding!

The Portes du Soleil professional paragliding school was set up in 1989 and is run by Laurent Cochard, who is supported by a secretary and a team of BEES instructors to provide you with quality services in a friendly, sporting atmosphere.

They work all year round to offer you different flying experiences in all seasons, on 3 slopes for paragliding and speedriding training:

- the 1st, just behind the paragliding school, which is suitable for different orientations;

- another located 10 minutes drive from the school, a magnificent grassy slope facing north;

- a 3rd in the Super Morzine area, a 15-minute drive from the school, south/west facing;

and the official take-off sites for tandem paragliding at an altitude of 1,600 metres: Super Morzine south/west and Ramatuel.

The free-flight sites of Haute-Savoie have an international reputation and are a privileged place for practising and learning paragliding.

École de parapente très sérieuse. Vol reporté à deux reprises du fait d’un vent trop fort malgré le beau temps : tout est pris en compte pour que le vol ait lieu dans les meilleures conditions.
