Frequently asked questions

How intense is a tandem paragliding flight in Les Menuires?
The launch and first few seconds of flight are the sharpest part: you go from standing on a snow-covered slope to airborne in a matter of steps. After that, the 50 min flight is a sustained high-altitude glide over the Trois Vallées, calm but with a constant adrenaline edge from the exposure and altitude.
Do you need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A degree of vertigo is normal and fades quickly once you're airborne. The tandem harness keeps you seated and secure throughout the flight, and the pilot manages all controls. Most first-timers report the fear peaks at launch and drops within the first minute.
What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch. You run a few steps downhill into open air, and the ground drops away fast. After that, thermal currents and the pilot's maneuvers can add sharp sensations mid-flight depending on conditions.
Is this a summer or winter activity at Les Menuires?
The tour is titled as a winter flight, which is the distinctive draw here: launching from a snow-covered alpine slope in the Trois Vallées rather than a summer meadow. Check availability directly with Fly and Slide for exact operating dates.
