PARAGLIDING IN SOUTH AFRICA
Paragliding in South Africa: For the longest time, it
has been man’s ambition to fly in the sky and experience
the exhilaration of being semi weightless and to explore
landscapes from high in the sky. Paragliding in South
Africa will allow you to fulfil these ambitions and
experience all the spectacular wonders of South Africa.
Most of the country is raised to 1000m above sea level
on a large plateau and the coastlines receive plenty of
wind. The best time of the year for paragliding is in
January and training usually takes place in April.
Paragliding easily combines the excitement of flight
with simple and cost free preparation. Feel the
adrenaline pumping as you soar through the sky and
admire the exquisite scenery of South Africa.
