About this tour
Strap into a tandem paraglide above Lombardy's rolling landscape for 90 minutes of genuine flight. You'll launch from altitude with an experienced pilot, catching thermals as the region unfolds below. It's the closest most people get to seeing the world through a bird's eye—no engines, no barriers, just you, the harness, and the sky. Physical fitness required; pregnant travellers should sit this one out.
Highlights
- Tandem flight with qualified pilot over Lombardy valleys
- See terrain from genuine aerial perspective, not a plane window
- All gear provided: harness, helmet, gloves included
- 90 minutes aloft, weather dependent
- Suitable for first-timers with moderate fitness
What to expect
You'll meet your pilot and get properly fitted into your harness and safety kit. The launch point offers a commanding view of the landscape below. Once airborne, the initial adrenaline settles into something quieter—the wind, the silence, the sheer scale of everything beneath you. Your pilot handles all the flying; you experience the sensation of soaring, drifting on air currents, watching towns and fields shrink to miniature scale. The descent is gradual and controlled. Expect your legs to feel slightly shaky afterwards; the mental intensity is real even if you're not doing the work.
Good to know
Bring your own transport to the launch site. Moderate fitness is essential—you'll need to hike to the takeoff point. Not suitable if pregnant. Weather conditions determine whether flights run; expect potential rescheduling. Wear layers and closed-toe shoes.
