About this tour
Launch from Panticosa in the Pyrenees for a tandem paragliding flight where you'll soar above El Valle de Tena's alpine landscape. During this hour-long experience, you'll drift over mountain ridges, glacial lakes, and scattered villages whilst a certified pilot handles the flight. Available year-round in both seasons, this puts you genuinely airborne—not a simulation or tourist gimmick. Private transport to the launch site and helmet are included; bring your own 4GB MicroSD card to capture footage.
Highlights
- Tandem flight with experienced pilot over Pyrenean valleys
- Aerial views of lakes, peaks, and traditional mountain villages
- Fly in winter snow or summer conditions
- Video recording of your flight included
- Professional-grade safety equipment and instruction
What to expect
You'll be collected and driven to the launch point in the Tena Valley. After a safety briefing and gear check, you'll run off a slope with your pilot, catching thermal currents that lift you higher into the Pyrenean sky. Flight duration varies with wind conditions, typically 30–60 minutes. You'll see the landscape shift below—distant ridgelines, reservoir water, small whitewashed hamlets—all filmed from your harness. Landing is controlled; the pilot manages descent and touchdown on a designated field. Total outing is around an hour including transport and prep.
