Interested in Paragliding?

Why not give it a try a find out first hand how this pure form of flight can somehow simultaneously be exhilarating yet peaceful and awe inspiring!

Take to the sky's on one of the most incredible coastal cliffs in New Zealand. You'll soar like a bird not just slowly descend like many other locations. You'll actually enter lifting air enabling you to maintain your height and even climb!
 
Because you'll be with a qualified, experienced instructor you'll have the opportunity to take the controls and find out first hand how incredibly easy paragliding actually is. (That's if you're keen and the conditions permit)

You'll start by driving to the Karioitahi beach car park then take a very scenic 15-20minute walk up the cliff onto takeoff. (Check the about page for directions) From there you'll launch and fly for 20 - 30minutes along the majestic coastal cliffs and learn how it all works. After the flight we’ll land back on top and then you can continue down in your own time. Many people choose to stay a while and watch the other pilots fly while they wind down from their own flight.

Bring, comfortable walking shoes, some food and water + sunscreen, a wind proof jacket and sunnies.

So go on, give it a try. It might just be the greatest thing you ever do.
