When is the best time to go paragliding in Annecy?
Paragliding can be enjoyed throughout the year, provided the weather conditions are suitable. Each season offers a different experience and a new way to discover Annecy’s beautiful landscapes.
In spring, the mountains come back to life with colour and the days grow longer. It’s a wonderful time to discover the lake and its surroundings from the sky, with landscapes that change from week to week.
In summer, Annecy is a particularly popular paragliding destination. The long days and summer flying conditions offer plenty of opportunities to take to the skies. It’s also the perfect time to enjoy spectacular views of the lake and its turquoise waters!
In autumn, the landscapes take on beautiful new colours and the atmosphere becomes more peaceful. It’s another wonderful way to discover Lake Annecy and the surrounding mountains.
Finally, paragliding is also possible in winter when the weather allows. The snow-covered peaks create a completely different setting, with picture-postcard Alpine scenery.
What happens if the weather isn’t suitable for flying?
Paragliding is an activity that depends directly on weather conditions. Even under a perfectly blue sky, wind and other flying conditions may not be suitable for tandem paragliding.
At Flyeo, the safety of our passengers and pilots always comes first. We carefully monitor the weather forecast, and our pilots assess the flying conditions on the day to determine whether it is safe to fly.
If the conditions don’t allow for a safe flight, your booking may need to be rescheduled.
That’s part of the beauty of paragliding, too: learning to work with the elements and enjoying the magic of flight when the conditions are just right!
