Ready to soar above some of New Zealand's most pristine landscape? Find out what it's like to spread your wings and soar with the birds in the unique New Zealand alpine environment. For 10 to 20 minutes you and a certified paragliding pilot will be looking down on Queenstown from incredible heights.
Soar above mountain ridges and get a bird's-eye view of Queenstown and its magnificent surroundings during this tandem paragliding experience from New Zealand's highest commercial launch site. Begin with a quick briefing and before you know it you'll take a few quick steps and be lifted into the sky with your highly trained and professional pilot. Gently glide down to the valley floor or ask your pilot for the "roller coaster ride", a thrilling and high G descent that will leave you breathless. Flight time is between 10 and 20 minutes, depending on the season and weather, so you will have plenty of time to take in the amazing views. With courtesy transport from Queenstown, in no time at all, you'll look down on Queenstown's dramatic landscape of pristine mountains and winding rivers.
Max weight of 120kg from Oct to March, 110kg from April to end of season (end of April to mid-May)
This experience caters for groups of between one to 10 participants per trip, depending on the time of year.
Spectators can come along free of charge on a space available basis.
Paragliding is a weather dependent activity. If Skytrek cancels due to weather, a full refund is given if the booking can't be re-scheduled.
