Activity description

Take to the skies from the top of Mont Chéry, at an altitude of 1,826 metres, to paraglide over Les Gets this winter!

The perfect change from skiing in the mountains, winter paragliding in Les Gets offers unforgettable moments as you discover the snow-covered resort from the air. For 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the day's weather conditions, you will soar peacefully over Les Gets and its lively winter scenery, while enjoying breathtaking panoramic views of Mont Blanc and the Aravis mountain range rising proudly in the distance.

Comfortably seated in front of the instructor in the harness, you will take off on foot on a gentle slope from the summit of Mont Chéry, at an altitude of 1,826 metres. From this height, you will have an impressive view of the resort and its surroundings! Your winter paragliding flight in Les Gets will also give you the chance to admire this superb landscape under its blanket of snow, leaving you with some superb images in your head. And if you like, your qualified instructor can perform some acrobatics in flight, or even let you try take control of the paraglider!

After 10 to 15 minutes in the air, you will land on your feet or sitting in the snow just outside the village. You will have stars in your eyes, as paragliding over Les Gets in winter is one of the best activities you can do in the Portes du Soleil resort!
