Val d’Aran: hike to fly

Format

Aran Parapent offers a Val d’Aran experience that begins on foot in the mountains. A walking approach leads to the launch, followed by a tandem flight with a pilot. The outing combines the effort of climbing with a new view of the valley from the air. It suits an active mountain trip and participants able to carry the equipment agreed with the organiser. Views of the high massifs described by the operator depend on visibility. Discuss fitness and meeting arrangements first, leaving the exact launch and flight duration to be confirmed for the conditions.

Experience

No piloting experience is needed, but you must be ready for an uphill mountain walk. Discuss pace, packs and equipment.

Before your trip

• Agree the walk, expected effort and equipment to carry before booking.
• Confirm a Val d’Aran meeting: the company also operates in other areas.
• Bring mountain footwear and a warm layer; discuss the alternative if flying is cancelled.
