The experience
The flight starts with a safety briefing on the ground, then you're airborne with the pilot guiding every step. Once you're up, the landscape opens below you: Rtanj mountain, the biggest natural pyramid in Europe, and Sokograd spreading across the valley. The wind carries you both higher as you take in views most people never see from ground level. If conditions are right and you're game for it, the pilot will show you some aerobatic tricks and let you take hold of the controls to feel what steering the paraglider is like.
Wear comfortable clothing and closed-toe shoes. The pilot provides all the gear, harness, and safety equipment. Weather calls the shots. If conditions aren't suitable on your scheduled day, you'll reschedule. The whole experience runs about an hour, and you'll get the GoPro footage to take home. Children from age 10 are welcome, and the pilot adjusts the flight to match your comfort level, whether you're a first-timer or someone chasing adrenaline.

What does Rtanj mountain look like from the air?

Can I really steer the paraglider during the flight?

What happens if the weather isn't good on my booking day?
Paragliding depends entirely on wind and weather conditions. If conditions aren't safe when you arrive, the pilot will reschedule your flight for another day rather than fly in unsuitable weather.
