Welcome to Paragliding in Armenia!

You are floating above the ground, getting a bird’s eye view of the countryside without any noise or anything to block your view…
You are climbing 1000 meters above the ground in a thermal along with the birds…
You are hiking to a remote summit meeting Shepards along the way, and then you spread your wing and fly…
You reach a popular flying site above a historic church via 4-wd truck and sit back and enjoy a tandem flight with an experienced pilot…
You take your first solo flight from the training hill as part of a paraglider pilot training class…
You land in a grassy field after a long flight and are greeted by the village kids…

Now you are experiencing paragliding in Armenia…

The landscape and weather of the Armenian Highlands provide endless possibilities for anybody interested in paragliding. Long, dry summers produce great thermal flying conditions with the opportunity to stay in the air for hours. Most summits are free of trees providing launching sites in most directions. Many popular flying sites can be found within 30 minutes of Yerevan. The following are a short list of flying sites:

Mt. Hatis
Mt. Ara
Ararat valley
Mt. Aragats
Jermuk
Lake Sevan

If you are an experienced pilot, pack up your wing and meet us in the air. If you are interested in flying tandem or interested in lessons, send an email to us for details.
