At SkyTour we are dedicated to fulfilling your dream of paragliding over the mountains of Mendoza. Unlike skydiving, paragliding does not need a plane to jump, but takes off from the top of a mountain to which we ascend by a mountain road in a 4×4 excursion. During the paragliding flight you will experience a mixture of adrenaline and visual pleasure where apart from the thrill of flying you will be able to enjoy a unique view of the city of Mendoza and the foothills of the Andes with its incredible snow-capped peaks.

The best way to complement the typical wine tourism activities of Mendoza such as wine tasting, visits to wineries and vineyards is to fly in paragliding. You can do this activity very close to the city of Mendoza. 20 minutes from the center of Mendoza is Cerro Arco, which apart from being a natural viewpoint of the mountain and the city of Mendoza, is also a place where you can do adventure tourism activities such as climbing, hiking, horseback riding, hang gliding and of course paragliding. At the foot of this is our parador from where the excursion begins.

Is it safe to paraglide?

Like any adventure tourism activity, doing a mountain paragliding baptism flight requires meeting certain safety standards that include both the professional training of the flight instructor, the certification of the paragliding equipment and the safety procedures required for the activity. .

The flight equipment has international homologation since its manufacture and a periodic check-up in authorized workshops. Both the harnesses and the paraglider are prepared to withstand high loads, much higher than those of a normal flight. Each team has an emergency parachute that is capable of supporting the weight of the pilot and passenger in the event of an emergency.

Among the safety procedures to do the activity are:

  • The observation of the climatic condition, this implies that there is good visibility and good wind (between 0 and 25 km/h).
  • The preparation and check of the paraglider at takeoff. This consists of deploying the parapet against the wind, checking the lines and checking the anchors and carabiners of the flight harnesses.
  • Preparation and brief instruction of the passenger prior to takeoff and landing. Before takeoff, the passenger is placed in the flight harness under the supervision of the instructor and the takeoff procedure is explained, which consists of a short run in which the passenger must accompany the instructor running approximately 10 meters.
  • The mountain paragliding flight is based on a route previously established according to the weather conditions of the day and always maintaining the safety height necessary to reach the landing.
  • The landing is made in an area specially equipped for this purpose, it has windsocks that indicate the intensity and direction of the wind, so that the instructor can make a safe landing. Before landing, a brief and easy explanation is also made to the passenger on how he should prepare for it.
