Paragliding lessons
Elementary Pilot Course – £600
Club Pilot Course – £700
On tuition the school says
“We offer Paragliding tuition that will allow you to train / fly as safely as possible and to a British Hang Gliding & Paragliding Association (BHPA) level and beyond. To fly by yourself without the supervision of a school and instructor, you need to complete the Elementary Pilot Certificate (EPC) and the Club Pilot (Novice) Certificate (CPC) on the Paraglider. This usually takes around 10 days to complete both the EPC and CPC certificates with us.”
Paragliding experiences
Taster Day – £170
Their taster day gives you a full introduction to all areas of paragliding over a 7 hour day. You will have your own paraglider and harness, learn ground handling and may progress to some low level flights on their training slope.
