Discover the unbridled thrill of hang gliding and enjoy incredible panoramic views over upstate New York.
On this unforgettable adventure, you'll be placed in your harness, alongside a professional instructor as you are towed by microlight to a height of 2,500ft. You'll be on the ultimate natural high as you soar through the air on the breeze and thermals and experience the total freedom of free flight with no noisy engine to disturb the tranquility.
Carve the air, just like an eagle and experience the blissful calm that makes hang gliding so 100% addictive. Gaze down on stunning green pastures and drink in panoramic vistas that will live in your memory forever.
No experience is necessary for this amazing tandem hang gliding flight, just a sense of adventure!
A light sport airplane will tow you to an altitude of up to 2500 feet. Once you’re released from the plane, you’ll be amazed at how quiet and peaceful hang gliding can be. Your instructor will show you how to fly the glider, teaching you the basics of how to turn, slow down and accelerate. After these simple instructions, you’ll be able to take the controls – even if you have no prior flying experience whatsoever.
