Experience the thrill of acrobatic hang gliding over the unique mountain landscape of Àger Valley. Take off from Montsec peaks like Coll d’Ares and Sant Alís after a short run, flying tandem with a skilled pilot who performs acrobatic manoeuvres. Feel the fresh air and wind sounds while admiring the Pyrenees and the deep Montrebei and Terradets gorges.
No prior experience is needed as flights are tandem with certified instructors who may let you control the glider under supervision. The activity includes transport from the meeting point to take-off, safety gear, and expert advice on aerology and weather to make the most of the valley’s sun-facing conditions.
Àger Valley in La Noguera is internationally known for ideal free-flight conditions and regularly hosts championships. Flight duration ranges from 45 minutes to 2 hours depending on the chosen option and weather.
Access is easy via paved road from Àger village to take-off points above 1500m altitude. Good physical condition is required for the initial run; it’s not suitable for those with mobility issues. There’s no helicopter rescue service locally, so safety and following instructions are essential.
Options vary from beginner to panoramic and acrobatic flights, including video reports and discounts for groups and competition participants, catering to different skill levels and expectations.
