In the morning, up in the air above the Loup valley paragliding tandem, a convivial lunch in the village, then in the afternoon, in the Loup gorges, at Gour du Ray, for a refreshing canyoning descent. The best of the Alpes-Maritimes in a single day, 50 mins from Nice, supervised by state-qualified instructors, at €190 per person.

Two-seater flight at Gréolières + descent of the Gour du Ray
An original formula on the French Riviera
Qualified instructors, free weather report

One day, two adventures
In the morning You’ll take off on a paraglider from the Gréolières site to discover the Loup Valley from the air. Your pilot will make the most of the thermals to extend the flight and offer you an immersive experience between the sea and the mountains.
Lunchtime : Lunch break at the Gréolières restaurant (not included) – a relaxed moment to recharge your batteries before the rest of the day.
The afternoon Head to the Gour du Ray canyon for an aquatic descent. Natural slides, jumps, abseils: 2 hours of thrills in the gorges. This package is ideal for groups (family, friends, hen/stag parties) who want to maximise their adventure day. Fancy just one activity? Compare our paragliding flights and our outings canyoning.

Une expérience absolument inoubliable ! 🪂✨ J’ai réalisé mon tout premier vol en parapente à Gréolières avec Ailéments, et je ne pouvais pas rêver d’une plus belle découverte. J’avais un peu d’appréhension avant de décoller, mais tout a été fait avec énormément de bienveillance, de professionnalisme et de pédagogie. Je me suis sentie en confiance dès les premières minutes. Le vol Prestige a été tout simplement magique : décollage depuis les crêtes du Cheiron, vol au-dessus des montagnes, ascendance dans les thermiques, et surtout cette sensation indescriptible de liberté et de calme, suspendue dans le ciel avec un paysage absolument incroyable sous les yeux. J’ai été particulièrement touchée par la douceur du vol. Je m’attendais à quelque chose de très impressionnant et finalement, j’ai découvert une expérience profondément paisible et contemplative. Un immense merci à l’équipe pour cette parenthèse hors du temps, et tout particulièrement à Pierre-Yves pour sa gentillesse, ses explications et sa capacité à mettre immédiatement en confiance. Pour un premier vol, je ne pouvais pas rêver mieux. Je reviendrai sans hésiter pour découvrir d’autres sites et d’autres sensations ! ❤️

Une équipe vraiment formidable ! Les trois moniteurs ont été très sympathiques, très professionnels et particulièrement rassurants. Ils prennent le temps de tout expliquer clairement et savent immédiatement mettre en confiance. Tout était parfaitement organisé et le vol était absolument génial : une expérience beaucoup plus douce que je ne l’imaginais, avec des sensations magnifiques. J’ai vraiment adoré ce baptême en parapente et je les recommande sans hésitation !
