The route

Hawk Xtra also takes off from Taucho at 800 metres and uses the thermals to climb (up to about 1000 m) when conditions allow.

More time in the air to enjoy Adeje's mountains, ravines and coastal views with your pilot.

Ideal if you want more than a first flight: when the thermals are working, your pilot climbs above the slopes of Adeje so you enjoy more time in the air and wide views of the south coast.

Everything you need to know

What does it feel like?

Paragliding has no free fall and no jumping off cliffs: take-off is a few running steps down the slope and the wing lifts you gently. Take-offs and landings are slow and smooth, and most of our passengers are surprised at how calm the experience is. Any fear comes before you start and turns into excitement once you feel you're flying.

Safety first

Statistically, tandem paragliding is as safe as driving a car. Our pilots have years of tandem experience and our gear is renewed regularly, carefully selected, inspected and approved by specialist companies. Your pilot controls direction and speed at all times.

A team that looks after you

We fly in groups of up to 6 people with a team full of energy on every flight. Your pilot gives you a guided tour of the surroundings, and you can take photos with your own camera or phone throughout the flight.

Your memories in photos and video

We film your flight with latest-generation cameras so you can take the memory home: the photo & video pack costs 30 € per person when booking on our website.

Safety comes first. If conditions aren't right, we move your flight to another day or cancel it with a full refund.
