Paragliding (new)

If you really feel adventurous you might want to try paragliding ....
last november I visited Lima with my son ..... everytime we drove by the Malecon Cisneros we saw the paragliders over the Costa Verde an exciting sight to see. I had seen the paragliders over Larco, but never thought about doing it. Just the thought of being up there terrified me ...... but the more we saw it the more excited we got ... .... unfortunately we picked the worst day, there was no wind and later it started to rain so all our hope of flying was gone. Next time we go to Lima I will make sure do it as soon as we get there.











Breath taking views of the coastline in Miraflores 



They offer these flights all year round, usually they are at noon when the wind starts picking up. I think it is a unique experience dare to take a thrilling paraglider flight over the beautiful Costa Verde's ridge. The breeze coming in from the ocean provides for some fantastic lift - the area is well known among paragliders for smooth flights with little turbulence. In tandem flight, the rider is taken up in a large, stable paraglider made for two people. There is no need to worry -- you will have a qualified guide and instructor with you for the entire duration of the flight. This 15 to 20 minutes long flight will surely be an experience that you will always remember!

LOCATION : Parque Raimondi, right next to the "Parque del Amor"

This is a fantastic view of the coastline in Miraflores!!!




 





 










 




For those who have never paraglided but want to experience the thrill of flight, there are several companies that provide tandem rides over the Costa Verde. Fly Adventure does tandem rides over the Costa Verde, as do AeroXtreme and FlyPeru. And if tandem riding isn’t enough excitement, all three places also offer classes in solo paragliding


If you are wondering were you need to go ..... here is the location map and how to get there from our Miraflores apartment.....
