About the flight

Winter Adventure is flown over the Gudauri ski resort: take-off from the resort launch at 2700 m, a mandatory briefing before the start, a tandem flight with a licensed pilot and a landing at the official landing zone at about 2200 m.

It suits guests who prefer a brief flight while observing the winter mountain landscape from the air. Every tandem is equipped with a modern reserve parachute; the gear is checked before every take-off.

In detail

Winter Adventure: programme details

You have always been attracted by the idea of soaring in free flight above the clouds, but did you give up your dream because of the fear of heights? Especially for those who are terribly afraid of "flying", we have developed a short winter paragliding flight program over the Gudauri ski resort in Georgia! You will stay in the sky for only 5-7 minutes, but during this time you will be able to cope with your phobia and plunge headlong into the world of hitherto incomprehensible emotions and sensations.

Why paragliding?

Because tandem flying with an instructor is the safest way to overcome your fears. All SkyAtlantida team members are professional licensed pilots with 22+ years of paragliding experience. They know everything about their work and about your safety. Sitting behind the passenger, the instructor ensures his protection by skillfully controlling the aircraft and promptly responding to any changes during the free flight.

Each tandem is equipped with modern parachutes. Before each flight, the equipment is thoroughly tested for performance.

Features of a short winter paragliding flight

  • We start in the area of the Gudauri ski resort (altitude 2,750 meters above sea level).
  • Duration of stay in the air - from 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Landing is carried out at an altitude of 2,200 m.

Note! The height of the start and landing directly depends on the weather.

The Winter Adventure program is available from 5 December to 15 April.

The price of a winter paragliding flight in Georgia is 349GEL

Booking Features

To book your "air travel" online, leave a request on the website or contact your personal manager by phone or in messengers. Once you have chosen your preferred date, be ready to make your prepayment online and wait for your booking to be confirmed.

Departure time will be scheduled depending on weather conditions. At a personal meeting in the office on the day of the paragliding flight, you will pay the remaining amount.

Note! If the flight is canceled due to adverse weather conditions, we will refund your prepayment in full.

And do not forget that in the winter season tandem flights are available exclusively in the Georgian ski resort of Gudauri.
