Welcome to Spirale parapente
After 25 years of experience in general aviation and paragliding, Spirale Parapente sets up in the very centre of Samoëns, at the Gros Tilleul square. Combining passion and professionalism, a small team of instructors and assistants was born in the famous Haute Savoie flying spot of Samoëns.
The goal: whether they’re passengers or trainees, fulfill their desire to discover paragliding by sharing with them the vibes this sport has given us since we began to fly.
