Activity description

Get a taste of freedom and let the world of paragliding unlock your adventurous side with this beautiful flight over Wilderness.

The “Map of Africa” is an extraordinary viewpoint with scenes of the Indian Ocean, Outeniqua Mountains, and Kaaimans River surrounding. Here, you will meet your pilot for an unforgettable flight over the town of Wilderness. As you approach the Map of Africa viewpoint, you will already spot colorful paragliders in the air. In just a few steps, you will be among them!

After a few important safety instructions, your guide will strap you into your harness. Together, you will then soar into the sky! From up above you can spot an endless line of beach with bright blue waters. For the next 10 to 20 minutes, all you need to do is sit back and enjoy the view! This unique perspective of Wilderness can only be seen from up above. Your pilot will ensure your landing will be smooth and as safe as possible. The world of paragliding has now opened its doors to you!

You can choose between the Standard flight or Adventure flight. Both flights are from the same takeoff point with the Adventure flight having an extended duration.

This is pretty close to feeling like flying, especially when a fish eagle flies past you. The feeling of the wind rushing as you dip and dive is quite thrilling.

I bought my 83 year old mother a tandem paragliding experience for Christmas. She absolutely loved it. She's quite frail and the guides and pilots help her enormously to strap in and feel safe. She never felt nervous and I always felt she was in safe hands.
