Huacachina: Paragliding over the Desert

About this activity

Enjoy a unique experience by paragliding over the golden dunes of the Peruvian desert.

After the meeting with the pilot instead of meeting at Huacachina, you walk together (10 min) to the buggy, which will take you to the takeoff point, around the oasis of Huacachina or in the heart of the desert, depending on the wind conditions.

When you get to the top, your Certified and experienced driver prepares the equipment and explains each step, allowing you to live the experience with confidence.

A few steps in the sand, and here you are in the air...

For 12 to 15 minutes of flight, enjoy a timeless moment, between sky and sand dunes, where adrenaline and freedom meet.

Unlike Things to do on land, paragliding offers a unique aerial perspective, away from noise and hustle and bustle, for an intense and unforgettable moment.

This activity is shared with friends, couples or solo, and is accessible to all, without any prior experience.
