A unique, adrenaline-pumping experience awaits in the incredible Corno alle Scale natural area: paragliding from Mount Pizzo.
There truly is no better way to admire the lofty green peaks of the Emilian Apennines and, on clear days, even the blue sea on the Tuscan side, than from above.
Take-off is 1,200m above sea level, riding tandem. Beginners will be guided by an expert who will accompany them on their panoramic flight.
Offered exclusively at the weekend, paragliding activities are managed by the Vivere il Monte Pizzo A.S.D. Association, weather permitting. Advance booking is required.
Moreover, the association organises flight courses and informational classes which last one day. Brave adventure seekers and experts can also take off from Corno alle Scale.
