Treat yourself to the magic of winter flight and discover unique aerial sensations in the heart of the Espace Lumière. Winter tandem paragliding in Pra Loup allows you to soar over the snow-covered Ubaye Valley in an exceptional natural setting. Boasting nearly 300 days of sunshine per year, this mountain area offers particularly privileged flying conditions. Flying over the heights of Barcelonnette, the snowy peaks and resort slopes unfold beneath you from a completely new angle, offering a grandiose spectacle for mountain enthusiasts.
The experience is fully supervised by the expert team of Praloup Parapente. Comfortably seated in your harness alongside your professional pilot, you will leave the Peguieou ridge to begin a 10 to 20-minute scenic flight above the resort. With no other sound than the wind gliding over the wing, you will explore the airspace in absolute serenity. During this contemplative session, the instructor adapts to your desires: thrill-seekers can experience aerial maneuvers with the pilot, and the most curious will even have the opportunity to take the controls of the paraglider to learn the basics of flight trajectories.
This winter tandem paragliding flight is accessible to everyone, with no prior technical experience or skills required, starting from just 5 years of age. All technical logistics and flight equipment are fully taken care of by the local structure. To participate, you simply need to bring your own ski or snowboard equipment and be able to ski down a very easy green slope. Both take-off and landing are carried out smoothly, by simply gliding on the snowpack, without any need to run.
Take advantage of the winter season, from December to April, to experience your first flight sensations over the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. After soaring over the landscapes of the Ubaye region, you can fully relax on one of the many sunny terraces of the Pra Loup resort, just a stone's throw from Barcelonnette.
