PARAGLIDING IN ARMENIA

A paraglider is an ultra-compact and ultra-light aircraft. It is exceptionally easy to carry due to its lightweight design. When folded, a paraglider weights only 6 to 15 kg and easily fits in any average-sized backpack. It can be prepared for flight in just 5 – 10 minutes and launched from nearly any slope, hill, or flat terrain. The landing demands only a small territory. In good weather conditions the flight on a paraglider can last several hours. Paragliding allows you to fly among the clouds, ride thermal air currents, and travel tens or even hundreds of kilometers using only the power of the sun and the wind.

Paragliding provides the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature from a bird’s-eye view. No prior experience or preparation is required to book a paragliding flight. Experienced instructors provide pre-flight training to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. 

Two types of paragliding flights are available in Armenia: motorized and non-motorized. Flights are organized during all seasons in various locations, such as Aparan, Lake Sevan, Buzhakan, Mount Hatis and Dilijan.
