Paragliding on Lake Garda
We will meet at the predetermined starting point and begin with an initial 'safari' adventure by Jeep for 40 minutes on scenic road surrounded by forest. Upon reaching the take-off point we will explain how easy it is to take off. A short ride and off you go...for the amazing tandem flight over Lake Garda. The grand finale, involves landing on the beach under the curious and amazed eyes of bathers.
Two-seater paragliding can be practiced by anyone, no special physical skills are needed, and there is no age limit. Passenger weight must be between 30 and 130 kg.
You take off from a mountain, during the flight the speed is 40 km/h at an altitude of 1200 meters, for these reasons it is useful to take shelter from the wind and cold.
Based on the season equip yourself with:
- Windproof jacket (with 35° you don't need it)
- Shoes suitable for the mountains (avoid flip-flops)
- Avoid white or delicate pants, they may get dirty during takeoff
- Valuables should be removed before flight
- Gloves (not needed in summer)
The whole experience takes about 1h30-2h. It includes: meeting, briefing, jeep ascent, preparation and flight. The duration of the flight depends on the weather conditions at least 20/25 minutes from the time of takeoff at 1200 meters until arrival at the beach. During the tandem flight, the passenger, if desired, will be allowed to try piloting, or take or receive photographs.
Andrea Candiani earned his first patent in 1998: "I have flown a lot and with real passion all these years, according to many I am one of the best Italian pilots to fly tandem with, today I fly mostly in paragliders, I consider it the easiest and most fun way to fly safely."
The day before the flight you will need to call Andrea to get confirmation of the flight and the exact time, which may vary or be cancelled depending on weather conditions.
