- Welcome to Clear Skies Paragliding -
Paragliding Holidays in the beautiful French Pyrenees
We call ourselves “Clear Skies” because in this area you can paraglide with space around you, not scores of other pilots. This makes the paragliding safer and more pleasurable. It gives you the chance to polish your skills in peace.
- Clear skies
- Cross country potential from most sites
- Super-wide landing field at Céret
- Scenery superb – e.g. flying over Cathar castles
- Catalan people – very friendly
- Mediterranean micro-climate
- Snow flying in winter
- Vol-Bivouac expeditions
- Spectacular and varied wild-life
- Regular audio met reports on summits for wind speed/direction
Above all the Eastern Pyrenees is a great place to stretch your wings/extend your flying skills without having to worry about fighting for space in the thermals and avoiding other pilots who may or may not be sticking to the rules of the air.
