Full description
Can you imagine crossing the skies and feeling as free as a bird?
Well, you can do it while you admire the panorama of the valleys of Cenes de la Vega and Monachil. With a paragliding flight of 25 or 40 minutes you will enjoy an incomparable landscape from a unique perspective in the company of a professional and competition pilot. Make yourself comfortable and enjoy flying very close to the Sierra Nevada National Park.
This experience will test you, but it will also allow you to leave your problems on the ground. Ready to take off?
What we will do
The meeting point is at the official paragliding landing in Cenes de la Vega. It is important to be punctual with the time indicated in the booking.
The first step will be to receive all the technical and safety information for the activity, then we will travel by van with the pilot for 30 minutes to the take-off area. After a short walk of 5 minutes, we will receive all the indications about the take-off manoeuvre in a briefing of 10 minutes.
You can decide if you want to hire a photographic service for the experience. If so, we will capture snapshots of the whole activity, starting with the moments before take-off. Afterwards, a short run following the pilot's instructions will be enough to feel how your feet start to take off from the ground.
We will fly for 25 to 40 minutes and we will be able to reach an altitude of 1300 metres, even 1600 or 1700 metres on the longest flights. We will enjoy like children contemplating the valleys of Cenes de la Vega and Monachil, while we can see the Sierra Nevada and the city of Granada in the distance. If the thermals allow it, it will be possible to climb a little higher to have a wider perspective, up to El Veleta, the Alcazaba and the Mulhacén.
The landing will take place at the initial meeting point, located at an altitude of 700 metres (500 metres difference in altitude from the take-off point).
The effective duration of the flight is 25 or 40 minutes, depending on what has been agreed, and the total duration of the activity is 1.5 hours.
