You can choose directly on the page flight selection. Otherwise call us at +39 3392309896 (also write to us on Whatsapp) or write to us at the email fly@deltaplanolaveno.it. One of our staff members will respond directly with whom, based on your commitments and our availability, you can decide on a date to carry out the experience.
To fly in tandem, we start from our office in via Cittiglio 1 in Laveno Mombello, and from here you will be accompanied to Monte Nudo or Poggio Sant’Elsa, our starting points.
Everyone can fly! Also children aged 10 years and over (subject to parental consent); in fact, no previous experience with hang gliding and any type of athletic preparation is necessary, you just need to know how to take a few light jogs.
We can also organize large groups of passengers such as graduation parties, corporate group experiences, groups of friends, stag/hen parties, couple flights and much more, the only limit is your imagination!
The experience lasts about an hour and a half in total, of which about 15/20 minutes of flight. As a first approach to flying we consider it more than sufficient as a standard but on request and by agreement with the instructor it is possible to do more. If conditions permit and he deems it appropriate, upon your request, the instructor will be able to pass the commands to you. For a few minutes you can drive the hang glider freely but you will always remain under the supervision of the instructor who will always be ready to intervene and take over the controls at any time!

Appear with clothing suited to the season: in winter all you need is a sweatshirt, heavy jacket and gloves , in summer a t-shirt is enough but a light windproof is always recommended, you never suffer from the heat while flying!
Bring sunglasses, in addition to looking cool, they are useful for protecting yourself from the air! We recommend avoiding stilettos and any footwear that is difficult to run in. Ordinary shoes are fine!
- The equipment is provided by us and includes: hang glider, harness, emergency parachute (in case an elephant crosses the road during the flight);
- transport to the take-off point located at 1000m above sea level in the mountains via shuttle service or cable car;
- HD VIDEO: we make our GoPro available for anyone who wants it, with which it is possible to shoot an onboard camera HD video to immortalize and share with friends the emotion that only a flight can give;
- liability insurance policy: for those who fly with us, liability and accident insurance coverage is always provided.
We fly every day, all year round, weather permitting of course. In our sport the weather is king and unfortunately we cannot control it therefore it must be specified that the pre-established times remain indicative as well as the date; in fact, the feasibility of the experience is always confirmed the evening before the date decided based on the weather situation of the moment and one of our instructors will do it directly via email or WhatsApp (example: if it rains or there is a strong wind you cannot fly and clearly we we cannot know with very much notice, a maximum of 48 hours in advance.
It may happen that there are sudden and unforeseen changes in the weather situation, in which case the assessment of the feasibility of the flight as well as the final decision is at the discretion of the instructor and his judgment is unquestionable.
Flying is a beautiful sport, with zero risk if done with criteria and given that our goal is to entertain you, if we consider that there are no suitable weather conditions for flying we simply take it philosophically and don’t fly. Safety first, the fun is only postponed for those who wait!
Always eat lightly before flying and no alcohol. It’s better to drink a beer after the flight! Avoid arriving too tired or tired from the night before, sleepy and not very clear-headed, this is not exactly the ideal condition for enjoying the flight.
