DOLOMITES in paragliding!
Enter the most mystical of paragliding playgrounds...
The Dolomites mountains in Italy are breathtaking in their rare beauty... Every normal paraglider dreams of one day flirting with these wild and majestic peaks.
Do you dream of touching the Grail? Alain knows the place like the back of his hand, and will guide you through this mythical landscape all week long.
On the programme:
We'll be spending the whole week together :). We're two instructors managing the take-off, one staying at the summit while the other goes cross-country with the adventurers.
Viviane manages the stewardship and recovery. We will be based in the Val di FassaThis superb valley in South Tyrol leads up to the Marmolada in the heart of the Dolomite Group 5.
- This course is usually scheduled in September, to take advantage of milder conditions than in midsummer.
- Dates and prices will be posted online during the season.
- Departure by minibus on Saturday morning at 07:00 from Grands Espaces in Talloires, and return on Friday or Saturday depending on the day's activities (plan late).
- Duration of the course: 7 days
- Level of course: Thermal, Init'Cross. Autonomous in terms of deco/atterro.
- The only prerequisite is complete autonomy on landing.
From the gondola-accessible take-off points, a playground opens up for cross-country enthusiasts. From the grandiose mountains to the valleys that surround them, there are numerous cross-country itineraries to choose from. We'll be taking off mainly from the Col Rodella, but depending on the weather, other take-off points may also be discovered.
For less experienced pilots, Campitello's easily accessible take-off and large landing area allow for a series of themed and non-themed flights in a beautiful landscape.
It's a popular destination for many international pilots, and this mix adds interest to potential meetings on take-off.
