Activity description

Fly over Lake Bourget in a tilting microlight, an aircraft like no other, for a unique experience in Savoie!

Also known as a motorised hang-glider, the tilting microlight consists of a rigid wing with a motorised trolley attached to the underside. Not only is it physically different from a paramotor (not the same type of wing, nor the same type of engine), it is also faster, so it offers a different flying sensation! Flying in a tilting microlight over Lake Bourget is a unique experience that will stay with you forever: don't miss it if you are in Aix-les-Bains and the surrounding area!

A professional Civil Aviation Instructor Pilot will be at the controls of the tilting microlight for your panoramic flight over Lake Bourget, ensuring total safety during the flight from the Lavours ultralight runway, along the banks of the Rhône. On board the aircraft, you will have nothing to do but admire the superb panoramas below you and feel the wind caress your face, as well as enjoying aerial acrobatics if you have chosen an adrenalin-fuelled flight! If you wish, you can even take the controls during your tilting microlight flight over Lake Bourget if you ask the instructor on site when you arrive (a supplement of between 10€ and 60€ will be charged, depending on the flight chosen).

With breathtaking views of surrounding peaks such as the Dent du Chat and Mont Revard, as well as the town of Aix-les-Bains, there is no reason not to take part in this microlight flight over Lake Bourget! But if you miss the comfort of a cabin, don't hesitate to opt for a multiaxis microlight flight!
