Activity description

Fly over Lake Annecy and experience the freedom of tandem paragliding with Annecy Vol Libre!

From April to October, the Annecy Vol Libre school offers you the opportunity to fly over Lake Annecy to discover the sensations of paragliding. In tandem with a state-qualified instructor who will control the paraglider to allow you to enjoy the landscape and the flight, this experience in the heart of a breathtaking environment will remain engraved in your memory!

You will take off from the Col de la Forclaz, one of the most prestigious take-off sites in France at an altitude of 1,240 m, offering a spectacular view of Lake Annecy and its surrounding peaks. An exceptional opportunity not to be missed, especially for a first flight!

You will have the choice between different flights of varying lengths to suit all your desires: discovery, sensations, or even acrobatics for the most daring! Those who wish to do so can also try their hand at paragliding.
