Paragliding Flight over Mont Blanc from the Aiguille du Midi

- Meeting with the instructor at the Aiguille du Midi cable car, followed by a ride in the cable car

- 10-minute briefing on how the flight will work during the cable car ascent

- Access to the take-off site on the Aiguille du Midi using special equipment (harness, rope and crampons) to help you descend a snowy ridge overlooking the Chamonix valley: already a great adventure in addition to the flight that awaits you!

- After the usual preparations and fitting out of the paragliding equipment (untangling the glider, giving instructions to the passenger), it will be take-off time

- Departure for a 1-hour paragliding flight over Mont Blanc and the Chamonix peaks (Aiguille des Glaciers, Grandes Jorasses, Aiguille du Grépon, etc.): depending on the weather conditions, your pilot will always try to optimise the flight, and depending on your wishes, he may carry out a few acrobatic manoeuvres and an introduction to piloting

- Flight over the whole of the Chamonix valley, close to the steep slopes of Mont Blanc and with the occasional chance of seeing a golden eagle, chamois or ibex

- End of the flight 1,000 metres below, a short distance from Chamonix town centre, where you will debrief with the pilot before ending the activity
