Practical information

A 20-minute paragliding flight during which you can learn how to fly the paraglider, with take-off facing Mont Blanc, 1,000 metres above the Chamonix valley.

Course of events

- Meeting with the instructor at the Brévent cable car, followed by a ride in the cable car

- 10-minute briefing on how the flight will work while you take the cable car ascent

- Easy 5-minute walk to the Planpraz take-off site

- After the usual preparations and fitting out of the paragliding equipment (untangling the glider, giving instructions to the passenger), take-off

- Departure for a 20-minute paragliding flight over Chamonix: depending on the weather conditions, your pilot will always try to optimise the flight, and if you feel like it, he can perform a few acrobatic manoeuvres and even give you an introduction to piloting

- Flight over the whole of the Chamonix valley, close to the steep slopes of Mont Blanc and with the occasional chance of seeing a golden eagle, chamois or ibex
