Activity Snapshot
Activity description
Fly like a bird, in silence, in the immensity of the sky with an experienced pilot of the Ozone ski school at the Orres resort in the Alps.
Come and enjoy the pleasures of paragliding while discovering the Hautes-Alpes from the sky. Once in the air, you will enjoy a breathtaking panorama of the Orres valley, the Serre Ponçon lake, and the high peaks of the Ecrins massif.
Programme:
- Upon arrival at the meeting point (at the top of the Crêtes ski lift), you are equipped with a helmet and a harness.
- After the preparations (unraveling the sail, clarifying the instructions...), you just slide on your skis in order to take off from 2,700m (8,858ft) above sea level.
- You then enjoy a flight of 10 minutes or so! Depending on the conditions, your pilot will try to optimize the flight duration.
- You fly over the whole valley of Les Orres, skim the mountainous steep reliefs and maybe have the chance to see a golden eagle, chamois or ibex.
- Your journey in the sky ends at the bottom of the valley where you will have a debriefing on your experience with the pilot.
