We cater for the social pilots who want to fly for fun safely, and do their own thing paragliding or paramotoring - get away, stress out at a great paragliding destination and just do it all in a beautiful mountain area with excellent accommodation and recreation alternatives at reasonable prices (unbelievable value for tourists). Also Winch flying and conversion courses at Dunnoter just outside Johannesburg.
We conduct courses and tours for beginners to intermediate pilot levels and offer a wide selection of quality equipment, supported by local and international suppliers.
