During the flight

You fly accompanied by the pilot, who controls the paraglider at all times. You only need to focus on enjoying the experience and the landscape.

On landing

The experience ends with the landing manoeuvre and with a feeling that is hard to forget for someone who has just discovered free flight for the first time.

This is the second time I have shared adventures with Criss and honestly it was a 10/10. The paragliding is amazing; you can really feel the experience and the sense of safety he gives. The first time was bungee jumping and that was spectacular too. I loved it. Thank you so much for the experience.

I want to thank Chris for making a dream come true: I wanted to go paragliding when I turned 50, and I did it. An unforgettable experience; the professionalism and safety they provide is incredible. I will definitely repeat. Today, one year later, I did it again with my nephews and it was amazing.

What makes paragliding in Gran Canaria special

That is why many people arrive looking for a single flight and end up discovering an experience that goes far beyond that. Flying here is not just about taking off and landing, but about experiencing paragliding on an island with its own identity and a real tradition in free flight.
