Overview
- Enjoy a 3-day fun filled learning period with the introductory paragliding course in Kamshet. A team of professional pilots will train to make your skyward quest easy and rewarding. On this course, there is no prior experience needed to realize the exhilaration of free flight. Over moments of fun, challenges, and learning, you’ll be soaked with information on flying techniques, equipment usage, handling, safety measures through classroom and practical sessions including training simulator.
- At first, you’ll start training on flat ground. Meet your course mates, instructors, and get familiar with the equipment, glider controls under strict supervision. You’ll get personal attention to help graduate to level 2. Your training will be complimented with Ground School classes to understand relevant concepts. Participating in a Training Simulator session makes it easy for you to acquire flying skills.
- Upon clearing take-off and landing techniques, you’re ready for your first solo flight on nursery slopes with instructor support. This is the moment of truth, as you transcend to levels above the comfort of the ground below. Your instructor for certification would vet your flying and written tests to award the ‘Student Pilot’ Rating. This qualifies you for the next level, P2 (Open Sky Pilot).

I was very scared to take this initially, but at first, we started training on flat ground. After this we met our course mates, instructors. The instructors taught us about equipments and we got familiar with the equipment, glider controls under their supervision. I was happy that I got personal attention to help. The training was complimented with Ground School classes to understand relevant concepts. This was boring but useful. Also participating in a Training Simulator session was done to ease oneself to acquire flying skills. In short, it was an amazing experience that I recommend all to take. I graduated level 1 and I will join level 2 next week.

We enjoyed a 3-day fun filled learning period with the introductory paragliding course in Kamshet. A team of professional pilots were present to train us. This made our skyward quest and experience easy and more rewarding. This course is done by certified professionals. So I felt safe. On this course, as I had no prior experience I was sceptical. The pilots assured me that as this is an intro course, no experience is needed to realize the exhilaration of free flight. To be honest, the learning was moments of fun, challenges, and learning as such was less. Practical sessions including training simulator was also provided that made it easier on air.

I can't believe i did this. Paragliding has always been on my bucket list but I was slightly frightened, the instructors took away all my fear they were so encouraging and I am so glad I took part in this course. They gave me a video of my flight as well!! An awesome experience to cherish for a long time!!
