Umbrian skies hang gliding

In free flight to appreciate this Region from the top, like tourists or sportsmen, in tandem or in lone.

Take a short running start, brace yourselves and start flying over countryside and villages.

It doesn’t take much to fly in hang – gliding: you just need good weather, a slope where you can take off, a good deal of bravery and a great desire to see the world from the top. Ascending currents and the experience (yours, or of the instructor that goes with you) will do the rest, to live a fantastic experience!

In Italy there are not so many places to do this kind of sport, but if you want hang gliding in Umbria there is plenty of choice.
