Description

Context Lanzarote, a volcanic island in the Canary Islands, offers stable weather conditions that allow paragliding flights year-round. Its rugged lava coastlines and dramatic black rock formations create a natural setting where free flight combines with panoramic views of sandy beaches and volcanic rock formations, gently ascending to 300 meters above sea level.

The experience After a safety briefing, you’ll put on a harness and helmet alongside your certified pilot. From the volcanic cliff edge or coastal launch site, you’ll run a few meters to launch into the air and begin gliding. For 15–20 minutes, feel the wind brushing your face as the paraglider silently floats above the landscape, taking in the contrast between dark lava fields and turquoise waters. The landing is carefully guided to a designated, flat area, ensuring a safe and smooth end to your flight.

For whom Ideal for people aged 5 and over with no prior experience, moderate physical fitness, and the ability to follow instructions. Not recommended for individuals with severe vertigo or physical limitations that affect takeoff and landing.

Local context Lanzarote is known for its dramatic volcanic terrain and the artistic legacy of César Manrique, who fused natural landscapes with local culture. Paragliding offers a unique aerial perspective of this harmony between nature and human expression, connecting you with the island’s natural and cultural soul.
