How does your paragliding baptism take place?
An unforgettable experience in La Clusaz, accessible to everyone. Here’s what awaits you, step by step.
THE MEETING
It all starts with a smile! The meeting place varies by season:
- Winter: We usually meet you at the top of the ski lifts.
- Summer: The meeting point is at the bottom of the ski lifts.
No need for complicated equipment: come in sportswear, gloves, and glasses. We provide you with all the safety equipment (helmet, harness).

THE TAKEOFF
After a safety briefing, off we go. We don't jump into the void, we take off!
- Winter (On Skis): A simple slide guided by the instructor.
- Summer/Winter (On Foot): A few dynamic running steps are enough.
BECOME A PILOT (OPTIONAL)
Once in the air, you are comfortably seated. No feeling of vertigo, promise!
If you wish, the instructor hands you the controls. You will learn to steer the paraglider over the Aravis. It's simple and intuitive.
SENSATION OPTION (OPTIONAL)
Want some adrenaline? Ask for the sensation option!
Dynamic turns, 360°, Wing-overs... It's exhilarating like a ride, but with a view to boot. Of course, it's only if you want it.
THE LANDING
The return to earth is gentle, managed 100% by your pilot.
We usually settle near the center of the village. A slide on the snow or a few steps on the grass, and it's done. We fold up, look at the pictures, and you leave with stars in your eyes.
