We'll take you up to our launch area on Coronet Peak, a quick 20 minute drive in our courtesy transport and proceed to get the equipment ready while our ground crew gets you into a helmet and harness. Your pilot will then take you through a briefing to explain what you need to do and then it's time to launch into the sky and fly free like a bird. Landing takes place on the valley floor about 3.7 km away from the take-off point. We pack up the equipment and take you back to town.

This activity is a harmony between you and the wind. An important aspect is balance; balance in your own power; balance between you and the wind. I hope you can try and fly like a bird.

My partner and I went hang gliding during our honeymoon and had a wonderful experience. The whole process was really smooth from check-in to take-off. We were meant to feel at ease the whole time, and the pictures turned out great and were transferred to our phone on the spot!
