Hang gliding Alpes

The great attraction in Saint-Hilaire since the 80's is hang-gliding and now paragliding. The exceptional aerological quality of the site and the professionalism of the instructors have given this school a flawless reputation. Prévol, in addition to initiation and improvement, offers since 1986 the discovery, two-seater paragliding flights - also in wheelchair - for a gentle first flight. The setting is fantastic for your first take-off between the limestone cliffs of Chartreuse and the Belledonne mountain range in the distance.

Besides its activities as manufacturer and importer of spare parts for gliders and gliders, this company is also a well-equipped ULM school. Possibility of baptism: tandem and ULM piloté. This base is located about kilometres south of Thonon, near Perrignier.

A highly professional paragliding school caters for beginners and experienced paragliders alike, offering courses to suit all levels. A warm welcome awaits you. During the winter season, the school also offers speed riding courses for experienced skiers. The guide office offers a wide range of other activities, including snowshoe trekking, ruisseling, ski touring, heli-skiing, ice climbing, caving, canyoning and more.

L'Ubaye Parapente is the driving force behind the development of paragliding in the valley. The school, which holds the Ecole française de Vol libre label and is approved by the French Ministry of Youth and Sports, was founded in 1986 by Matthieu de Quillacq, who has over 30 years' experience to his credit. In complete safety, accompanied by experienced and passionate professional instructors, take to the skies to admire the world from above. The helicopter + paragliding experience offers a personalized appointment, a package unique in the world, for even more memories of Ubaye.

Fly in the most beautiful free flight garden in the world under the supervision of professionals. Les Ailes du Mont-Blanc offers the opportunity to realize this dream in complete safety during a tandem flight. Five paragliding and mountain professionals, led by world champion Sandie Cochepain, introduce amateurs to paragliding and speedriding (between paragliding and freeriding). Some of the instructors are trained to supervise the flight of people with reduced mobility (Hand'icare project). Professionals to the tips of their sails, these artists of the air offer pleasure and sensations.
