Wild flight with Matheysine Paragliding

Performing a tandem flight in Isère requires a precise reading of the aerology to transform every breeze into a pure sensation of gliding.

As an independent instructor, I focus on a handcrafted approach to free flight. Far from industrial structures, we take the time to observe thermal updrafts to optimize the wing's glide ratio above the turquoise reflections of Monteynard Lake. My goal: to share the technical and contemplative aspects of paragliding in total safety.

Based on the Matheysine Plateau, I organize your flight sessions in my favorite areas, easily accessible from: Grenoble, Lyon, Valence and Trièves.

Free flight: A moment to share for everyone

Tandem paragliding requires no specific physical ability. I welcome passengers from the age of 5 for a gentle discovery of the calm aerology and the massifs of the Matheysine. My goal is to make the feeling of glide and freedom accessible to everyone, without exception.

"Particularly touched by difficult life journeys, I make it a point of honor to provide a breath of lightness and escape to those who need it most, especially children facing health challenges."

Magnifique expérience pour mon fils de 5 ans! Communication impeccable, très pédagogue, mon fils a même pu piloter le parapente. Le seul problème sera probablement d'avoir donner le virus parapente à mon fils 🤣 Un vol parfait au dessus de la si belle Matheysine!!! N'hésitez pas, foncez!

Première expérience de parapente en tandem pour mon fils de 5 ans avec Mathesyne Parapente… et quelle réussite ! 🪂 Il a adoré du début à la fin, au point de demander à recommencer à peine les pieds posés au sol. Tout ça grâce au professionnel (désolé, j’ai oublié son prénom 🙈) qui a été d’une grande écoute, très pédagogue et patient (surtout avec un petit bavard de 5 ans 😅). Comptez environ 1h au total : la montée, les explications, la préparation, le vol (15 minutes magiques), puis le pliage de la voile et un petit debrief. Tout est bien rythmé, sans stress. Le paysage est incroyable 🌄, l’organisation au top, et surtout la communication du moniteur met en confiance aussi bien les enfants que les parents. Bref, une super découverte, fun et rassurante, que je recommande à 200% ! 👌

Immersion in Matheysine

A tandem paragliding flight with us is a technical and sensory immersion. We harness the wing's glide ratio for pure flight in the crystal-clear aerology of South Isère.

Just 40 minutes from Grenoble, the thermal updrafts carry us over the turquoise reflections of Monteynard and the ridges of the Taillefer.

As you drift through the air, discover a unique perspective on the Vercors and the iconic Obiou massif. Join me to transform this flight into an everlasting memory.

Frequently Asked Questions

The essentials to know about local aerology and the organization of your tandem paragliding flight in South Isère.

Will I feel dizzy or have vertigo? +

It's a physical certainty: you don't get vertigo while paragliding. Vertigo requires a physical link to the ground. In the air, without a fixed vertical reference, this sensation disappears. You simply enjoy the glide ratio of the wing for a smooth flight above the Matheysine landscape.

How does weather confirmation work? +

Free flight depends on local aerology. I analyze thermal updrafts and wind flows to guarantee your safety. I will contact you by SMS the day before your flight around 6 PM to confirm the meeting point on our South Isère sites.

What is the flying season? +

The flight season runs from May 1st to October 15th. It is during this period that the air mass offers the best conditions for tandem flights, allowing stable panoramic flights over Monteynard and the Grand Serre.

What is the minimum age to fly? +

We welcome passengers from the age of 5. For younger children, we prefer morning flights because the aerology is calmer, providing a smooth and gentle first free flight experience without bumps.

Field Expertise
