Take advantage of a team of certified instructors to make your childhood dream come true in complete safety: fly over the most beautiful lake in France, with Mont Blanc and the most prestigious peaks of the French Alps as a crest line.
How does the first tandem paragliding experience work ?
We look forward to seeing you at our K2 Outdoor shop in Doussard on the day of your paragliding jump. Doussard is located on the lakefront, 17 km south of Annecy. The shop has a large free car park with 80 spaces.
We take our shuttle bus up to the Col de la Forclaz, in Montmin, in the Bornes massif, 25 minutes above Doussard, at an altitude of 1250m. The view is magnificent, plunging down onto Lake Annecy, the Faverges area and the Annecy basin.
The Col de la Forclaz is a well-known site for paragliders and free flight enthusiasts. It has notably hosted the world championships in acrobatic and distance paragliding.
Once you arrive at the take-off, your instructor will install you in the harness, give you your final recommendations and you can launch in pairs. For groups, several instructors are at your disposal to share your emotions during your first paragliding experience. So you can share this moment with others!
You can enjoy the landscape and the gentle flight which can last from 10 minutes to more than an hour. The landing is in Doussard, right next to the K2 Outdoor shop, where you return on foot or by shuttle once you are back on the ground! There we debrief and you can check out the photos and videos taken. We take care of everything. The photos will be put directly by our team on your smartphone or sent via "WeTransfer". (optional extra)
