Tandem paragliding Ötztal
Process
When you arrive at the mountain station you will receive your equipment including a helmet and gloves.
After about a ten-minute walk we reach the starting point. There the glider is prepared for the flight and we practice the take-off run together so that you know exactly what to expect.
3,2,1, go… After a few steps, we take off into the third dimension, you sit in the comfortable harness and enjoy the breathtaking view.
Soft and in the last few meters, with almost no forward movement, we touch down on the large landing area and walk a few more steps. The earth has us again.
