Description

Have you ever dreamed of flying? Have you ever imagined yourself gliding through the clear sky, gazing down at the gorgeous scenery below? If you have, this paragliding trip will make those dreams come true. During this adventure, you will get to sail through the air above the Glenwood Canyon, in the Rockies of Colorado, near the town of Vail.

The paragliding area is only approximately 45 minutes from Vail. And once we reach the area, you will be securely and safely fastened with one of our guides on a paraglider. From there, we will take off, and for approximately 15-20 minutes, you will get to fly above the gorgeous Glenwood Canyon. In every direction you look, you will get to see some truly breathtaking scenery, both below and beyond. From the enormous peaks of the Rockies, to the area’s vast collection of rivers, meadows and forests, you will get to see it all.

There are no age restrictions on this trip. Even children can enjoy it. Thus making this trip perfect for the entire family. However, we do have a weight limit of approximately 260 pounds. But, other then that, this trip is open to anybody.

There is no experience quite like paragliding. It is literally flying through the air, feeling the wind only birds can feel on your face. If that sounds like an experience you wish to have, all you have to do is send us a request and we will make it a reality.

Guide cancelled within 48 hrs and I was unable to find someone else and so far I’ve not been refunded. Put a small dent in my otherwise great trip to Revelstoke.

Guide was very experienced and very patient with us. We learned alot and he tried to fit in all the knowledge he could in one day, super awesome. A little tough going back and forth to get the trip set up hard to tell if the site is sketchy until you see reviews but all worked out. Ended up with an awesome day with an awesome guide. Overall pretty satisfied and thankful!

Nate was very knowledgeable and got me to the top of mountain. He’s not as engaging as most of the guides I’ve had over the years. I’ve learned a lot about most of my climbs as guides talk about the mountain and the area maybe even plant and animals and I enjoy getting to know them better. We did talk a bit more on the way out of the trailhead. All in all a good experience. But not sure your company told him I had a knee replacement and would be slow.
