Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch from the clifftop above Monterosso is the peak adrenaline spike , you run a short distance and the ground drops away instantly beneath you, with the coastline of Cinque Terre opening up ahead.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A healthy respect for altitude helps, but tandem paragliding is smoother than most expect. You're harnessed to a certified pilot the entire time, and the sensation is closer to floating than falling.
How long are you actually airborne?
The total experience runs 1.5h, which includes briefing and gear setup. Actual flight time depends on thermal conditions on the day.
What's the best time of year to fly above Cinque Terre?
The season runs May through September. July and August offer the most reliable thermals, but also the most competition for slots. May and September give you cleaner skies and fewer crowds.
