What is a Paramotor ?
A microlight paramotor is a paraglider powered by a motor that allows the pilot and passenger to climb up and fly almost anywhere. We can fly up to 3 hours long and at a confortable 40 mph. The snow trike allows us to takeoff and land on snow making for a smooth, stable and confortable flight with breathtaking view of our winter wonder land in Val Thorens, France.
During 25-30min experience the most amazing sensation of flying through the air! Pilot Tim Green will adapt the flight for anyone's level of extreme from a smooth panoramic flight to extreme acrobatic maneuvers.
Depending on weather conditions, you can even flyover the summits and glaciers of Val Thorens and take in the extraordinary views of the snowy mountain ranges for example the Massifs of the Maurienne, the Tarentaise and the Vanoise national park. On a clear day you can see as far as the Mont Blanc and the Ecrins mountains!
