Paragliding is best described as hang gliding in a rucksack, with an instructor attached! Weighing as little as 5Kg (11lbs), paragliders are capable of flying hundreds of miles, un-powered, using wind and air currents to sustain flight - just like birds!

We use the most professional paragliding training centre in the Manchester area, who not only have a faultless safety record, are also recommended by the sports Governing Body, the BHPC.

If you haven't flown before, paragliding offers you the unique opportunity to fly on your very first day! Hang gliding, with its more complex controls and higher speeds takes considerably longer. It is more demanding, physically and mentally and therefore most beginners opt go for a tandem paragliding experience first.

The paragliding fun day is just as it sounds - a day of flying fun! You will start with ground training followed by some low level flights no more than a few feet above the ground. After your paragliding experience, if you decide to take a full paragliding course or a package, the voucher will give you a £30 discount!

As with all our paragliding experiences you may spread your days out or take them all together (subject to weather). There is no rebooking charge for days postponed due to bad weather. Mandatory BHPC Third Party Insurance is included in the price of this experience voucher.
