Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch from the Alpine slope is the sharpest adrenaline spike: you go from standing still to airborne in a few running steps, with the valley floor dropping away beneath you. After that, the flight levels into sustained altitude with panoramic views of the Merano basin and surrounding Tyrolean peaks.
Do you need any previous experience to fly?
None. The physicalLevel for this tour is listed as 'Everybody welcome', which means no fitness requirement, no prior paragliding experience, and no age restriction beyond standard safety guidelines set by the operator.
How long are you actually in the air?
The total experience is 1 hour, which includes briefing and harness fitting on the ground. Actual airtime depends on thermal conditions on the day, but your pilot from Tirolfly will maximize it within the session.
What happens if the weather is bad on my booking day?
Paragliding is weather-dependent. Contact Tirolfly directly before your session: pilots make the final call on launch conditions, and responsible operators will reschedule rather than fly in unsafe winds or low visibility.
