The Europa campsite gives you some practical information to help you organize your paragliding experience during your vacation at Lake Annecy:
1. The best flight spot
The Col de la Forclaz: this is the best-known site for paragliding at Lake Annecy. Takeoff is from a high altitude (1,400 meters), which allows you to fly over the lake with breathtaking views.
2. Weather conditions
Lake Annecy benefits from a microclimate favorable to paragliding. Thermals (rising currents of hot air) are quite common, especially in summer, and allow long flights.
The ideal is to fly in the morning or at the end of the day to avoid the strong winds that can blow in the afternoon.
3. Paragliding schools
There are several schools that offer paragliding introductions. These tandem flights are perfect if you are a beginner and want to discover the paragliding experience.

4. Best period
The ideal season for paragliding at Lake Annecy is from May to October, with perfect conditions between June and September.
