Climb & Fly / Hike & Fly in the Pyrenees
Experience the thrill of climbing a multi-pitch route or taking a panoramic hike in the Pyrenees and flying down to the valley!
ENQUIRE
Overview
Have you ever imagined climbing or hiking up one of your favorite mountains and then flying down? With our Climb & Fly / Hike & Fly programs, you can do exactly that—in the stunning heart of the Pyrenees, exploring areas like Ordesa, Peña Montañesa, and the Pineta Valley. You can choose to take on one of the region’s classic climbing routes or opt for a scenic hike to a panoramic summit. If the weather’s on our side, we won’t just hike back down—we’ll launch into the air and ride the thermals, gliding over the landscape like vultures. On a good day, flights can last an hour or more, turning a memorable ascent into an unforgettable descent. This is not just an adventure, it’s a completely new way to experience the mountains!
Highlights
One of the only companies that offers Climb & Fly / Hike & Fly activities
Take advantage of one of the few companies offering true mountain paragliding adventures. While most providers stick to standard tandem flights, we take it a step further, giving you the chance to climb or hike some of the most iconic routes in the Pyrenees and launch directly from the summit. From there, we’ll soar above legendary valleys, letting the thermals carry us through the sky just like the vultures that glide over these peaks every day. It’s not just a flight, it’s a full mountain experience, from the ground up to the clouds.
An area with endless possibilites
Since you're in the Pyrenees, you'll have the opportunity to explore a region rich in charm, culture, and tradition. Scattered throughout the valleys are welcoming mountain villages, where life moves at a slower pace and local festivals fill the summer with music, color, and celebration. The people here are open and friendly, always ready to share a story or a glass of wine. This is a land shaped over millennia by weather, ice, and time. A dramatic mountain range that forms the natural border between France and Spain. Its landscapes are as diverse as its culture, making it the perfect setting for both adventure and authentic connection.
