**Combine two incredible experiences during this paralpinism trip, sailing over the incredible mountain landscapes after completing an incredible climb of the Cosmiques Ridge.**

Cosmiques Ridge is an iconic mountain climbing route around Chamonix.  Not only do climbers enjoy tackling the classic mixed route on snow, ice and rock, the views from the ridge are stunning. Looking below, climbers see Chamonix on one side of the ridge; on the other side, the Mont Blanc massif is visible in the distance.  This climb is typically graded AD, and requires some previous climbing or mountaineering experience.

We will get an early start and take the first cable car in the morning, in order to complete the guided climb of the popular Cosmiques Ridge.  Then, after we enjoy the view from the top of the ridge, another adventure awaits.  Next, we will descend to our launch site, so that we can take off and paraglide around the mountains!  During this 30-45 minute flight, your tandem paraglide pilot will fly you around the north side of Aiguille du Midi or near Vallée Blanche.  From the air, you will have a special view of some of the most beautiful peaks in the Mont Blanc massif.  It will truly be an unforgettable experience.

Paralpinism, like all air sports, is very dependent on weather. So if you like to fly and ski, hike or climb you must be ready to change your target at the last minute. I can´t guarantee that we’ll be able to fly but I promise to do my best to make it happen and have a beautiful and safe journey.

This is how it works :

a) We set a date, a mountain range and what you like to do!

b) Three days before the set date we make a first review of the weather and check if it will be possible. If it is, we continue with our project. If it’s not, we change the destination (as close as possible).

c) On the night before the trip, we organize the last few details

d) We go for it and do our best!

If we  can complete the climb but are unable to fly, a refund of 150€ will be made. For groups of 1, there will be 1 guide and 1 paraglide pilot.  For groups of 2, there will be 1 mountain guide and 2 paraglide pilot.

**This is an incredible opportunity to combine a famous climb near Chamonix with the adventure, adrenaline, and soaring panoramic vistas of paragliding.  Book this trip now – it will be a breathtaking journey!**

**Combine a day of mountaineering in the Mont Blanc massif with the adrenaline of paragliding among its legendary peaks! During this adventure, I will guide you up the 4,000m peak of Mont Blanc du Tacul, then we return to Chamonix by paraglider!**

Mont Blanc du Tacul is an impressive peak of 4,248m that is accessible from the Plateau du Midi and situated between the Aiguille du Midi and the famous Mont Blanc mountain.   Those who make the high altitude summit of Mont Blanc du Tacul are not only rewarded with a great mountaineering experience in the center of Mont Blanc massif, but also, on clear days, panoramic vistas over the French and Italian Alps.

During this program, we will ascend by cable car to 3,000m.  From there, the climb to the summit of Mont Blanc du Tacul will take us about 4 hours.  Once we take in the views from the top, we will unfold the paraglider and take off for our descent.  The view from the air is stunning: as we soar above Aiguille du Midi and the other peaks of the massif, we will have a unique opportunity to contemplate the scale of the mountains and how small humans are in such a vast landscape.  Not to mention the courage it must have taken the first explorers who ventured to climb the massif 150 years ago.  After an hour long flight, we will touchdown in Chamonix, where we may enjoy the remainder of the day in the sunny valley.

In order to participate in this program, you should be acclimatized prior to embarking on this climb.  Additionally, previous experience walking with crampons and using mountaineering tools such as ice axes is required.

**Explore a fun via Ferrata at the foot of the legendary Mont Blanc during this 1-day adventure.  After exploring the alpine scenery by foot, the journey continues with an exciting paraglide flight among the beautiful mountain landscapes!**

There’s an outdoor adventure for everyone in the mountains surrounding Mont Blanc, the tallest mountain in the Alps.  For those not yet ready to make a high altitude ascent of that mountain, why not try this one-day adventure! I will guide you through the fun and exciting via Ferrata Curalla, which will allow you to get a taste of different alpine activities.  The via Ferrata is moderate in difficulty and could be suitable for an adventurous person with no previous mountaineering experience.

After we spend time experiencing the mountains on foot, the second stage of our adventure will begin.  We will then take off from the mountain and soar over the valley! You will have an incredible view of Mont Blanc from the air as I pilot our tandem paraglide.  This is definitely an unforgettable way to experience the stunning alpine landscape and to appreciate the scale and size of the Mont Blanc massif. For an even longer flight, we have the option to continue ascending Aiguille de Varan from the top of the via Ferrata route, and take off below the summit of that peak.

This is how it works :

a) We set a date, a mountain range and what you like to do!

b) Three days before the set date we make a first review of the weather and check if it will be possible. If it is, we continue with our project. If it’s not, we change the destination (as close as possible).

c) On the night before the trip, we organize the last few details

d) We go for it and do our best!

**Book now and it will be an incredible experience, combining the thrills of ascending the mountains with the aid of a via Ferrata, followed by incredible panoramic views from your seat in a paraglider!**

**Escape the crowds as you experience the iconic mountain of Aiguille du Midi from the air during this beginner friendly, half-day paragliding trip!**

Aiguille du Midi is a well known peak of the Mont Blanc massif that is especially famous for being easily accessible by cable car.  Riding the cable car starting from Chamonix, you can reach the summit in under 30 minutes.  At 3,842m, standing on the summit of Aiguille du Midi will give you an impressive panoramic vista of the famous glaciers and peaks that surround Chamonix.

While most adventurers explore Aiguille du Midi on foot or ski, during this adventure you will have an incredible opportunity to see the awe-inspiring landscapes of the Vallée Blanche from a whole new perspective.  We will ascend by cable car, then use crampons and a harness to make a slight descent of the ridge to our launch site.  Once we take to the air, you will feel amazed as you soar among the massive Alps from your seat in the paraglider. Our flight will take us among the many magical snow capped peaks around the Chamonix valley. While our exact route will depend on the wind conditions, we have the option to explore the northern side of the mountains, or fly toward the sunny southern side.  Regardless of the route, you will come away from the experience feeling inspired by the grandeur of the mountains.

**Book this trip now for an unforgettable tandem paraglide descent of Aiguille du Midi!  You will soar among the legendary mountains of the Alps as you enjoy the thrilling ride and the awe-inspiring view.**
