Frequently asked questions

How intense is a tandem paragliding flight at Alpe d'Huez?
Launch involves a short run off a mountain slope, followed by immediate exposure to open altitude above the Grandes Rousses massif. The sensation peaks at takeoff and during any spiral or wingtip turn your pilot performs. The rest of the 1h30 flight is smooth and sustained, not a constant adrenaline spike.
Do I need any experience to fly?
None. The operator lists physical level as everybody welcome. You fly strapped in tandem with a certified instructor from Alpe Vol Libre / Alpe Sports Loisirs who handles all controls.
What is the most intense moment of the flight?
Takeoff from the high-altitude launch site. You go from standing still to airborne in a few strides, with the valley dropping away beneath you immediately. Ask your pilot for active maneuvers if you want more rush mid-flight.
Is the flight available year-round?
The season runs May through September. Outside those months, conditions at altitude are not suitable for tandem flights.

Practical info

Season

May – September

Equipment

Wear warm layers and closed-toe shoes you can run in at takeoff. The flight lasts 1h30 and altitude temperatures drop significantly even in summer, so a windproof jacket is not optional.
