Explore the sky: distance flights over Lake Como

What is Cross Country Flight?

In Paragliding, “Cross Country” means distance flying. The pilot does not just glide to a landing, but takes advantage of thermals (updrafts) to climb in altitude, move between ridges and valleys, and cross miles of sky. It is a dynamic flight, which can last over 40 minutes, offering a real feeling of travel and adventure.
