Activity description
Discover a unique panorama of the lake of Annecy and the Alps with this tandem paragliding experience from the Col de la Forclaz (Montmin)!
The Annecy area is an incredible location with easy air conditions, which makes it possible to enjoy superb paragliding flights. As well as experiencing all the fun of flying, you can enjoy the beautiful mountain scenery around the lake of Annecy, including Mont Semnoz and La Tournette.
At take-off, it's much more impressive to watch others take off than to experience it yourself, so there's no need to be afraid! A few steps are enough to find yourself in the air and experience a magical moment as you leave the ground!
Don't close your eyes and take the time to admire the scenery from the Col de la Forclaz, with Annecy on your right, the mountains of Haute-Savoie all around you, and the famous lake of Annecy under your feet. You will also have the possibility to take the controls of the paraglider with the help of the instructor to add more spice to your flight.
