Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch off La Colina is the sharpest adrenaline spike: you go from standing still to airborne in a few running steps, with the Atlantic coastline of Asturias opening up beneath you instantly.
Do you need to be fit or have any prior experience?
No fitness level or prior experience is required. The physical level is listed as 'Everybody welcome', and your pilot handles all the flying. You just need to be able to run a few steps at takeoff.
How long are you actually in the air?
The total experience runs 1h to 1.5h, which includes briefing and gear-up time on the ground. The airborne portion depends on thermal conditions on the day.
Is 70 € the total price, or are there extra fees?
70 € is the advertised price for the tandem flight. Confirm with Parapente Factory directly whether photos, videos or transport to the launch site carry any additional cost.

Practical info

Season

May – September

Equipment

Wear closed-toe shoes with ankle support and dress in layers: temperatures at altitude above Gijón drop noticeably even on warm days. The session runs up to 1.5h, so a light windproof jacket fits easily in a small backpack without adding bulk at takeoff.

Getting there

Head to Camino Quiñones-Somio, Km. 513, 33203 Gijón, Asturias, the designated meeting point provided by Parapente Factory.
