Experience an exhilarating big mountain paragliding flight with stunning views of Lake Wanaka!

Highlights

  • One of New Zealand's Highest Tandem Flights
  • Outstanding Views
  • World Class Tandem Pilots
  • An easy few steps and you are flying like a bird!

Wanaka Paragliding's big mountain tandem flight from Treble Cone is one of the highest flights in the country. With incredible views of the Matukituki valley and Lake Wanaka, this is an experience of a lifetime.

The friendly team at Wanaka Paragliding will meet you at the bottom of Treble Cone, and upon arrival at the launch site, we will fit your paragliding harness and your pilot will give you a safety briefing.

Feel the anticipation build as you walk, run and then become fully airborne!

Relax back in your harness, breath in the incredible views and crisp clean air and experience the sensation of flying free.

Along the way you'll cruise along the beautiful Treble Cone range and up close to the beautiful Twin Falls.

Passengers are able to choose from a gentle floating descent or for the more adventurous, wingovers and spirals before landing softly next to your car.

This full paragliding experience also includes a photo package and your pilot will capture all of the fun on the inflight camera.

Per Person $319.00

최고 그이상 여기에서 보고 예약한 동영상보다 더 한 자연을 느낌!!

저희는 9시 예약을 하고 갔는데 오버부킹 이라고 해서 1시에 다시왔는데 바람때문에 계속 딜레이가 됬어요 근데 아침보다 훨씬 날씨도 좋았고 무엇보다 직원분들이 너무너무 스윗하고 친절하고 정말 너무 잘해 주셔서 기다리는 시간또한 짜증하나 없이 잘 기다리면서 자연을 구경했습니다 가는길이 얼마나 이쁜지 가보시면 알겁니다 ! 진짜 살면서 이 경험은 꼭 해봐야 된다 생각하는데 꼭 전 와나카에서 하고 싶었는데 정말 잘한 결정인거 같습니다 진짜 굿굿 정말 꿈이라고 말하기도 신기할 정도로 정말 눈으로 담기는게 하나도 믿기지 않았습니다 정말 전 와나카에서 이 멋진 직원들과 정말 말로 표현할수 없는풍경에서 패러글라이딩을 할수 있어서 너무 행복했습니다

What an unforgettable experience !

It was my first time paragliding and had an amazing time. The conditions were perfects : snowy mountains in the background, blue sky, light wind and great team. I felt completely safe with Dan. I did not feel scared at all, just focusing on this amazing time flying through the air. I highly recommend this ! Very professional, kind and friendly team. Will do it again for sure !!

Awesome experience must do

Richard and team are very experience in what they do. My 7 year old and my wife loved the beautiful scenery and flying over this beautiful place. It’s a must do activity if you are in Wanaka or Queenstown.
