Hangliding (Delta) & Paragliding (Parapente) at Saint Andre Les Alpes

The world’s BEST free flying site   

With an average of 300+ days of sunshine per year, the amazing lake and abundant activities Saint Andre is probably the only fying site in the World that can keep pilots, families and children of all ages happy - All wanting to return for more. It's a Little Piece of Heaven!

Isn’t St Andre only suitable for expert pilots?  NO!

Aerogliss is one of the best paragliding schools in France and is located in St Andre - it  turns out excellent pilots in large numbers every year.

If you use common sense and have a basic respect/understanding of the following:

• mountain weather
• thermo-dynamic flying
• your own skill level and ability
  
• the flying day here has 3 distinct modes/gears
  

1. morning - very calm, amazing views and light
   
2. afternoon - thermic
   
3. evening - lifty and mellow
   

• select the mode/gear to suit your ability and then use the other time to play, this helps keeps you AND the family happy
  

Do this and you will go home grinning from ear to ear, desperate to get back.

Those that don’t just gripe and moan to anybody that will listen, hence its unjustified reputation as a location suitable for expert pilots.

Happy and safe flying.
