Paragliding Medellín

• Meet in San Felix*, a town overlooking the city of Medellín
• Join a bilingual guide to take a tandem paragliding flight, depending on weather conditions
• No previous experience needed to fly with your instructor
• Land where you launched from for an easy return transport to return to Medellín

** San Félix is located 30 minutes away from Medellín and accessible by public transport
 Ask us for help with directions or to arrange private transport for an additional cost.

Upon arrival to San Felix, meet your experienced paraglider pilot. Do a methodical assessment of the weather conditions with your pilot to ensure a safe and enjoyable flight. Once weather conditions are optimal, you will take a short walk to the take-off ramp, located on a sloping hill. Your instructor ensures the tandem paragliding equipment is properly set up, including helmet, harness, and leg, shoulder, and waist straps are connected with safety attachments. A tandem paraglider is built for a single pilot and a passenger and allows a person with no previous experience to fly with an instructor, who controls the paraglider. Follow instructions for how to run on take-off site, sit comfortably in your harness, and position yourself for landing. An assistant will help you and your tandem pilot take-off and then you will enjoy at least a 20 minutes flight.
