Paragliding Bled is the best way to experience the natural beauties of the Bled area and other parts of the Gorenjska region from the birds’ perspective. You will fly near and above the famous lake and admire its unique island on one side and the magnificent Bled castle (which looks like it is »keeping an eye« on the lake) on the other side. During the whole flight you will have an amazing view over the highest Slovene mountains; the peaks of the Julian Alps, Karavanke Mountains and the Kamnik Savinja Alps. On a very sunny day, the vista opens across the Austrian border.
Since this activity is very weather dependent you only need to book a spot on the trip. To book this activity you only pay a deposit of 30€ per person. The rest is paid on spot to the guides.
Paragliding heavily depends on the weather, which cannot be predicted in advance. Therefore, we will inform you about the starting time either one day before booking or on the same day until 9 am. Our lead pilot checks the weather and informs us of the suitable time accordingly. Generally, paragliding flights start after 9 am, and the slots are organized until 4 pm, depending on the season and weather conditions.
Due to our booking policy, cancelations are not possible under 24h before the start of the trip. In case of bad weather, you will get a full refund.
Our guide will pick you up in Bled from where you will take a ride with a van to the take-off point, which is 15 minutes away. You will spread your wings from a beautiful spot on the Pokljuka plateau. This is a 1300-meter high plateau in the heart of the Triglav National Park, covered with forests and mountain pastures.
On a take-off field, the instructor will equip you with all the necessary equipment and explain the basic rules and take-off procedures. When everything is set up and ready, you and the pilot will descend from the plateau with a parachute.
Soon you will no longer feel the ground under your feet, but at the same time, you will enjoy the freedom and fresh breeze when paragliding Bled with beautiful views of the landscape below. The guide will drive you back to the town when you land on a landing field.
Unforgettable paragliding Bled tour is available daily between April and October.
The entire paragliding Bled tour takes up to 2 hours, which includes transport, preparation and time in the air, although the unforgettable experience of gliding up in the sky lasts between 10 to 30 minutes. The pilot will extend the flying route for a few more minutes on a very sunny day with no wind.
Our agency provides all the necessary equipment for the paragliding Lake Bled flying route, such as a helmet, gloves and a safety harness. You will get this equipment at the take-off point. A safety harness is very comfortable to sit on, so it won’t chafe you. You will feel as if you are sitting on a couch.
To ensure your tandem flight is as comfortable as possible, don’t forget to wear hiking boots or sports shoes and warm sportswear with a jacket or fleece. Warm clothes are also proper to wear on very hot summer days since the air is chillier in the higher altitudes.
Our licensed tandem pilots have over 24 years of experience and are well-qualified to guide and operate paragliding Bled tours. Before the take-off, they will explain essential information and rules. Instructors will do all the work, as they are taking care of take-off procedures, maneuvering the parachute in the air and safe landing.
Therefore, you don’t have to worry, so just relax paragliding Bled and enjoy the journey high above the ground. If you are afraid of heights, an experienced pilot will help you defeat your fear to feel completely safe.
Tandem flights up in the sky with a qualified instructor are suitable for all adrenaline enthusiasts and nature lovers who would like to experience this exciting sport while observing the stunning alpine scenery from a different perspective. If you have already visited natural attractions in the alpine landscape, now is the time to admire them from above. An unforgettable, thrilling and fun adventure high above the ground offers you breathtaking panoramic views.
Paragliding Bled tour requires no prior experience; neither does it require a license, as a certified instructor will do all the work. However, certain weight restrictions must be applied for maximum safety measurements, so the tour is suitable for anyone who has over 30 kilograms and less than 120 kilograms.
Lake Bled paragliding route is something unique as you will have the opportunity to see the most impressive spots of the alpine landscape from a different perspective. When you quietly float through the blue sky on a sunny day, the panoramic views will open to the magnificent scenery of the Triglav National Park, along with the highest peaks of the Julian Alps, such as Mt. Triglav, Razor and Mt. Škrlatica.
To the north, you will have views of the Karavanke Mountains with the highest peak of Mount Stol. The beautiful panorama in the northeast opens to the Kamnik Savinja Alps, Žirovnica, part of Radovljica and Lesce airport. On a very sunny day, the vista opens across the Austrian border.
The paragliding Bled adventure then brings you down towards Lake Bled when flying 500 meters above the lake and the surrounding hills of Osojnica and Ojstrica. This allows you to admire the attractions that this alpine pearl has to offer. Flying in the air gives stunning views of the lake with its island and romantic church, traditional pletna boats, mighty Bled Castle on a cliff and the town.
Even though we follow accurate weather forecasts daily, sometimes we cannot completely predict the weather, as it can change very quickly, especially in the Alps and Alpine valleys. Since paragliding Lake Bled depends on the weather conditions, we can cancel the tour at the last minute due to the possible strong winds or heavy rain.
In this case, we offer you three options. You can wait until the sky clears up and go on a paragliding Bled tour the next day or two or we make a full money refund. You can also check out other tours on our website or stop by our agency and pick a different tour that doesn’t depend on the weather conditions.
