Adventurers who dream of flying, should make sure to try out a flying holiday. During the adventure journey in Verbier, guests will be taught how to fly a paraglider and will obtain their first level flying license. The 5-day course is held from June to October and will take complete beginners to a level where they feel confident to fly solo and judge weather conditions and site selection. Ten to 15 solo flights can be expected, including a couple of long flights of over 25 minutes.

Some exciting extra options include helicopter flights to the summits of surrounding mountains where guests can take-off with their paraglider and glide over glaciers and crevasses. When not flying, the guests’ home in Verbier is a beautiful lodge, Les Rois Mages, located in the heart of this stunning Alpine village. Les Roi Mages is a place where travellers can truly relax and enjoy excellent service and cuisine.
