Do I need previous paragliding experience?

No. This is a tandem flight with a trained, experienced instructor who handles all flying duties while you enjoy the view and sensation.

What altitude option should I choose?

Choose 800m or 1000m for a shorter, more intimate flight over local terrain; select 2250m for extended flight time, higher views of Teide, and stronger thermal activity.

Is there a weight limit?

Weight restrictions apply to tandem flights for safety and equipment reasons. Contact the operator to confirm whether you meet requirements.

What happens if the weather is bad?

Paragliding is weather-dependent. Flights are typically rescheduled if winds are too strong or visibility too poor for safe flying.

How long is the total experience?

Expect approximately 1 hour total, including a safety briefing, gearing up, takeoff, flight time, and landing.

Will I see Teide National Park from the air?

Yes, depending on your flight altitude and weather conditions, you can see Teide and the surrounding national park landscape, along with views of Tenerife's southern and northern coasts.
