Adventure Weekends

Come and fly with us and explore our stunning countryside

Explore the West Country

The West Country is a beautiful and diverse region of England, with a rich history and culture. It is also home to some of the most stunning natural scenery in the country, making it the perfect place for an adventure weekend.

We have several training sites available to us in the West Country, all of which are located in beautiful and remote locations. Our pilots will explore Somerset, Dorset, and the Jurassic coastline in a comfortable environment with retrieve support available.

We offer a variety of adventure weekends, including:

  • Beginner Cross Country: This weekend is aimed at those of you who wish to learn about planning, navigation and flying your first XC paramotor flight. As a group we will plan our routes, manage our fuel requirements, avoiding airspace and taking into account weather conditions to take us to our landing sites.
  • Explore the sites: The West Country is home to some of the most beautiful scenery and landmarks including Glastonbury Tor and the Jurassic Coastline. This weekend is aimed at pilots wishing to explore it with us, safe in the understanding that you will have a retrieve driver available, take off and landing permissions have been sought and you’ll be experiencing it with like minded people.

Get in touch with us to discover our schedule and to reserve your place.
