- Tandem Flights
-
With no prior experience necessary, you can soar the skies over
Aspen with a professional USHPA Certified Tandem Pilot from
Aspen Mountain. This unique sensation of free flight and a
breathtaking panoramic view is absolutely unforgettable.
Paragliding enables one to realize the incredible joy of flight
in its simplest form. A soaring aircraft, a paraglider is
transportable in a backpack. It is easy to lift off and fly
from mountainsides and gentle slopes. With just a few running
steps to assist the pilot, the launch is precise and truly
exhilarating.
