Activity itinerary

You are going to do a paragliding tandem flight with one of our certified instructors. This flight takes off from Plan Praz and will last 15 to 25 minutes, depending of the wind conditions. ! From September 18th to October 20th , the Plan Praz paragliding takeoff place is closed (due to cable car maintenance), therefore we will fly from the Plan de l'Aiguille. The meeting point in this case will be at the bottom of the Aiguille du midi cable car. Don't hesitate to contact us for more information !
