Participants arrange shared transport to the flying site among themselves. Each participant decides for themselves whether their name, town and chosen contact (phone or e-mail) are shown to the other participants of the same course date — this is set with a separate consent at registration or in the profile settings. Without consent the details are not visible; declining does not affect your registration.

For anyone over 15 who wants to learn the basics of paragliding and fly independently under the supervision of an instructor.

Persons under 18 need the written consent of their parents.

Courses are run in small groups: on various training slopes and with an individual approach we introduce you to paragliding equipment and the different flying techniques.

The course programme is adapted to each individual, so you do not have to adapt to the group.

Courses run 3 times a week, in winter only at weekends. Attendance is not compulsory every time.

You only need suitable hiking footwear; we take care of everything else.

The beginner course lasts 6 to 10 days, 4 hours a day. The duration depends on how quickly the individual acquires the knowledge and skills, and on the time the participant has available. As a rule the course lasts until every student has mastered all the necessary techniques and exercises.

The price does not change with the length of the course: the basic aim of our training is your knowledge and safety.

Attendance is not compulsory every time.

In suitable weather conditions we start a course every Saturday.

Courses are held at weekends at 9:00 and on weekdays at 17:00.

You will be informed of the course dates at least one day before the planned session, by SMS.

The course location is chosen according to the current weather conditions.

We run them on various sites across Slovenia: Vremščica, Logatec and Prebold.

Participants are informed of the specific provider or instructor before training begins. Where regulations require a specific authorisation, training is delivered only by a person holding a valid one.
