Lisätietoja aktiviteetista
Meet your guide on São Conrado Beach at the designated time (between 8am to 4pm, subject to change based on weather conditions). For an additional fee, you can arrange a transfer from your hotel, with up to four passengers. Transfer prices depend on your location and can be paid only in cash and can be arranged after booking.
Wind up the jungle roads to the take-off platform on top of Pedra Bonita. You will get a safety briefing and get geared up with your tandem guide. Your equipment includes a safety parachute and is inspected regularly to fit to the manufacturers standards. Two GoPros are attached to your wings, to capture every moment of this incredible experience! After the flight, photos and video are available for purchase.
Make your way to the platform with your tandem guide, sprint the 26 feet (8 meters) toward the edge and feel the wind take you to lift-off! Enjoy one of the best views in Rio — with the jungle and city beneath you, two mountains on either side, and the immense Atlantic Ocean stretching out in front of you.
After approximately 8 to 16 minutes of flight, you will land safely on the shores on São Conrado Pepino Beach.
Experience or prior knowledge is not required. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes with good traction, no flip flops or sandals. Glasses and contact lenses are ok to wear during the flight. Before the flight, only eat soft foods and do not consume alcohol.
Note that while Rio de Janeiro has exceptional climatic conditions for free flight year-round, the pilot may cancel the flight at any time based on weather conditions. The day before the flight, the pilot will find out the best hours for flying. There are different weight limits for hang gliding and paragliding, which varies according to weather conditions and evaluation criteria of each pilot. You must inform your weight when booking. The weight limit is 210 lbs (95 kg). Participants must be over 18, or over 16 if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
