Volo Libero a Gemona e Borgano | Gemona Città dello Sport e del Benstare

Free Flight

Home > Sports > Free Flight

The term identifies the flight with the hang gliding and the paragliding. If there are updrafts, these can be exploited by the pilot to gain altitude, rising far away above the takeoff point. In the absence of updrafts the free flight becomes a glade whose duration depends mainly on the height from where it starts, on the efficiency of the medium and on the ability of the athlete.

Our territory due to its shape represents an unique landscape, such as to make special any detachment of the ground, whether it be a sweet evening flight or an adventurous flight of miles of valleys and lakes.

FLIGHT SCHOOL

For those who want to approach the discipline there is also a school where you can obtain a pilot’s license.
