We are organizing this trip
in partnership with the CEM (Markstein Paragliding school);
The CEM is a professional gliding school since 1977 (Under the agreement of the
French Federation of hang gliding). Philippe Marck, technical manager of the
school will be onboard to coach the group of pilots.
| The
organisation of the life on board is the same as for our SAILING
ADVENTURE TRIPS (see our Advices and
some answers
to your questions). If you are beginner in sailing,
no worries, you will learn quickly. The duration of the sailing
part fits with paragliding activity. If flying conditions are
good, we can almost fly every day. The navigation zone is :
Isfjorden, Forlandsundet, King's Bay and Cross's Bay. All over
the area there is glaciers and gorgeous anchorage. |

 |
The
philosophy of this adventure is to enjoy the fantastic
nature of Spitsbergen by sailing and flying the most
beautiful places. We are not looking forward for the
extreme. Very few paragliders flew in Spitsbergen, sites
are still unknown. For this reason, pilots are required
to be confirmed pilots (IPPI licence 5). |
|
For those who wish to come with their non paragliders
partners, they are welcome. Our base camp is confortable with a
good view straight to the paragliding site.
