Katowice: Powered paraglider flights

For all those willing to feel free and get amazed by the beauty of Silesia, we offer a unique chance to get on a powered paraglider (a paraglider with an engine) and leave all the problems on the ground. Just a short ride from Katowice you will be able to take off and enjoy the beauty of the region with a twist. We invite you to take a chance and try flying with acrobatic elements – adrenaline rush guaranteed! We offer sightseeing tandem flights on modern two-seater trikes that will allow you to have a great view and a comfortable position at the same time. If you’re wondering if it’s safe, believe us, it’s safer than you think!

You can choose how long you prefer your flight to last – with 10, 20 and 30 minutes available. We have prepared an additional option of filming your sky journey so that you return to your thrilling time spent on a powered paraglider flight.

Our local professional instructor will take you for an unforgettable adventure near Gliwice with an exact spot location depending on the direction of the wind. He will make sure all goes as planned and show you the beauty of the Silesia region.

• The cloud cover must not be low to complete the flight. It doesn’t have to be sunny, the lack of sun doesn’t prevent sightseeing flight.
