Activity description

Come and experience a tandem paragliding flight over the magnificent lake of Annecy and the surrounding mountains from Doussard!

Accompanied by a state-qualified pilot with a passion for paragliding, fly over the Alps and discover Lake Annecy from the sky! As with most paragliding schools, the departure point is in Doussard, a charming little village south of the lake of Annecy.

My Play Ground Paragliding offers 3 types of paragliding flights to choose from according to your wishes and your budget: a 15 to 20 minutes discovery flight, a 20 to 30 minutes ascending flight (depending on thermal conditions), or a prestige flight for a 30 to 35 minutes flight in the middle of the Alps. In all cases, you will get magnificent panoramic views of Annecy's lake, the town of Annecy and its surroundings, as well as the surrounding mountains such as the Semnoz or La Tournette.

Whether you want to enjoy a calm paragliding flight or a more dynamic one to feel the adrenaline rush, My Play Ground Paragliding has something for you in the splendid setting of the lake of Annecy!
