Paragliding
Grenoble Fly over the Turquoise Lakes
Take off for an unforgettable tandem flight over the emerald waters of Lake Monteynard.
Just 45 minutes from the city center, enjoy a unique panorama between the Vercors cliffs and the Himalayan footbridges. A moment of pure freedom far from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Aerological Expertise South of Grenoble
Catch the updrafts
far from urban congestion
Why limit yourself to the crowded sites of the valley? The Matheysine plateau is the ultimate playground for a technical and serene flight.
Here, our take-off zones (Sénépy, Connest) range from 900m to 1700m in altitude, providing healthy aerology and a consistent breeze.
Far from mass tourism structures, we use the generous thermal updrafts of the plateau to optimize the wing's glide ratio.
A tandem paragliding flight south of Grenoble becomes a true lesson in piloting and contemplation, away from the turbulent air of the city basin.

YOUR PARAGLIDING FLIGHT
STEP BY STEP
A tandem flight above the Grenoble basin is an art. Here is how we turn your dream into reality, blending technique with pure sensation.
Briefing & Gear
Welcome at the take-off site. We equip you with a high-comfort harness and a helmet. We explain the safety instructions and the crucial wing inflation phase.
Smooth Take-off
No jumping into the void here. A simple steady run is all it takes. The wing rises, takes your weight, and the magic happens: you leave the ground without any shock, carried by the air mass.
Piloting & Thermals
Depending on your flight, we choose aerodynamic gliding in calm air or use thermal updrafts to gain altitude and explore the massifs. Intro to piloting and adaptive aerobatics available on every flight at no extra cost.
Serene Landing
The return to earth is perfectly smooth on the Matheysine plateau. An approach managed to the millimeter by your instructor for a soft, upright landing on your legs in total safety.

TECHNICAL SKILL & PEDAGOGY:
THE SENSATION OF GLIDING
Flying south of Grenoble means choosing a wild alternative to crowded sites. As a tandem flight specialist, I prioritize air mass analysis and comfort for total immersion.
Zero "Factory" Effect
Here, we don't just "consume" a flight. We take the time to study local aerology before every tandem flight. A privileged moment, far from the hustle and bustle of the Grenoble city basin.
Mountain Aerology
Our sites (Matheysine, Trieves) offer a healthy air mass between 900m and 1700m. Escape the thermal inversions of the valley for optimal lift and flight comfort.
Piloting Mastery
Become an actor in your flight. If conditions allow, I will introduce you to aerodynamic glide optimization and the basics of wing piloting.
