Book morning flights
Morning winds are usually steadier—schedule your paragliding early to avoid afternoon thermals that make flights bumpier.
Bring ID and verify weight limits
Operators require passport/ID and enforce weight limits for tandem safety—confirm these before arrival.
Wear closed-toe shoes
ATV sections include rocky tracks and river crossings—sturdy footwear prevents slips and protects toes.
Declare health conditions
If you have spinal issues, recent surgery, or are pregnant, opt out—both paragliding and ATV aggravate those conditions.
Closed-toe hiking or trail shoes
Protects feet on ATVs and provides grip during paragliding launches and landings.
Sunglasses and broad-spectrum sunscreen
High-altitude sun is strong—protect skin and eyes during flights and open trails.
Light windproof jacket
Temperatures drop during flight and wind exposure increases—layering keeps you comfortable.
Small daypack with water and ID
Keeps hydration, passport and small items secure while you fly and ride.
