Prepare to be thrilled and amazed. Stunning wild scenery, twin waterfalls, plus flying over deer and wild falcon, beyond expectations. Wanaka Paragliding was in all an absolute highlight of our trip.

Our pilots Brooke and Michael were really friendly and gave us an amazing flight close to the Twin Falls, finishing with an aerobatic roller-coaster descent and a smooth landing. Highly recommended!
