Tandem paragliding over Lake Bled lets you see the lake, the island and the castle from the air, strapped in with a pilot who does the flying. You don’t need any experience. It suits travelers who want a short, active break from sightseeing on the ground and are fine with heights.
The flight itself lasts 10 to 25 minutes. How long you stay up depends on the wind and the weather that day. After landing, the pilot drives you back to Bled.
Past travelers mention a great pilot and a feeling in the air that made them want to fly again.
Paragliding depends on the weather, so the flight can be moved or canceled at short notice because of strong wind or heavy rain. Check the available dates and pick a day that leaves you room to reschedule.

It was a beautiful day and my pilot was great. Paragliding is a feeling like none other and I look forward to doing it again.
No. On a tandem flight you are attached to a trained pilot who controls the glider. You only need to follow a few simple instructions at takeoff and landing, like running a few steps when the pilot tells you.
Paragliding needs good weather. Strong wind or heavy rain can cancel or postpone the flight, sometimes at the last minute.
This flight is not recommended if you:
If you are afraid of heights, think it over first. You will be high above the lake for up to 25 minutes.
Wear warm, comfortable sports clothes, even on a warm day, because it is cooler in the air than in town. Wear sports or hiking shoes with a good grip for takeoff and landing. Skip sandals and flip-flops.
A zipline is a fast ride along a fixed cable. Paragliding is a slower, open flight in the air with a pilot, where you float above the lake and look around. It is calmer than many people expect, but it depends much more on the weather.
