Winter tandem paragliding in Les Orres, Alps
None at all. The physical level is listed as 'Everybody welcome', meaning no prior experience, training or fitness requirement applies. Your certified pilot handles all controls from takeoff to landing.
The 2h covers your pre-flight briefing on the ground and the tandem flight itself. Your pilot explains exactly what to expect before you both launch from the top of the Crêtes ski lift.
Takeoff. You run a few steps into open air and the ground drops away instantly. The transition from slope to full aerial suspension over the Alps happens in under two seconds.
The tour is titled as a winter session. Confirm directly with ESI Ozone Les Orres for summer availability, as conditions and launch points may differ between seasons.
