Lift off from Llogara Pass and glide along Albania’s Ceraunian coast on a 45‑minute tandem paragliding flight. Expect sweeping sea views, limestone ridgelines, and practical tips for timing, gear and safety.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You stand at the edge of the Llogara Pass where the pine-scented ridge drops toward the Ionian Sea and the wind runs its fingers through the grass. The pilot — in this case a musician-turned-paraglider who brought his craft back to Albania — runs through a short safety briefing, the wing swelling above like a patient bird ready to lift you off the cliff. In seconds the hill releases you and the coast falls away: limestone slopes give way to olive terraces and the sea glitters with a path of light.

Morning Launches are Smoother
Book the earliest available slot—mornings usually have calmer winds and gentler thermals for tandem flights.
Wear Grippy Shoes
You’ll run a short grassy or rocky slope at takeoff and may scramble at landing—teachers recommend closed-toe shoes with traction.
Protect Your Head and Eyes
Bring sunglasses and a light hat or buff; glare from the sea and altitude chill can catch you off-guard.
Declare Health Concerns Early
Inform the operator of any spinal, heart, or pregnancy issues before booking—these conditions are contraindications for flight.
Sturdy trail shoes
Provide traction for the short run at takeoff and for uneven landing zones.
Windproof shell
Keeps you warm and blocks cold sea winds at altitude during spring and shoulder seasons.
