PARAGLIDING
South America by Sky
The best views hands down, no matter where you are! Paragliders emulate birds by gliding on thermals, warm air currents, in order to gain altitude and get a true bird’s eye view. No matter where you go, paragliding is sure to leave you breathless as you peacefully traverse the airways with your well-trained pilot.
Colombia
Chicamocha canyon is one of Colombia’s many prized natural wonders and is the second largest in the Americas after the Grand Canyon. You can take your experience to the next level by flying not just over the canyon itself, but soaring even up above the mountains that line it. No matter which way you look, the scenery just keeps on going.
When to go: Year-round, but the dry months, December-April, are best. Each day’s flights depend on the winds and things tend to get stirred up by 11 am.


Peru
While Colombia allows you to paraglide over a natural wonder, in Lima you can paraglide over top of the city and catch all the action from far above. A flight over the city also gives you great views of the Pacific coastline and the dramatic cliffs that support the bustling city of Lima.
When to go: Year-round, Lima is located in a desert and while it never rains, there are some days when a light mist falls over the city.
