Descrição
For those seeking adventure, the paragliding experience in El Quindío is an exhilarating choice! Feel the rush as you fly over stunning coffee fields in Colombia’s Quindío Department, taking in breathtaking vistas from above.
Paragliding Experience in El Quindío
Meet us at your selected hour in Plaza de Buenavista, located in the municipality of the same name within the Quindío Department. From there, we will travel by vehicle to the launch site, which is situated at an altitude of 6,200 feet (1,890 metres) above sea level.
Upon arrival, our expert pilots will review important safety guidelines and provide essential instructions for both take-off and landing. After this briefing, you will be equipped with your harness and helmet, ready to embark on your flight!
Experience a thrilling 10 to 15 minutes soaring through the air as you glide over the Coffee Cultural Landscape. This stunning mountainous region in Quindío boasts lush coffee plantations, guaduas, and trumpet trees. Throughout the 4-mile (7-kilometre) route, the pilot will share insights about the municipalities you are flying over, as well as how local residents have adapted to the challenging terrain.
Provided that the weather permits, you will have the opportunity to follow your pilot’s guidance and control the paraglider yourself!
