Austrian Arena
Details:
We have been based in the ‘Main Alps’ since 1995 & most of the paragliding experience we are able to share was learnt in the Classic Alpine region of the Zillertal. One of the most renown & respected XC arenas in the Alps & where I called home for over 18 years. We have been guiding & coaching pilots there since we started Austrian Arena way back in 2002. While flying with us in any of our areas we hope to give pilots the knowledge & know-how needed to confidently plan & most importantly fly safely in the Alps. When booking a paragliding course or holiday it’s extremely reassuring to know that the course leader understands the area and it’s conditions inside-out. We have lived and breathed paragliding since becoming hooked by the sport in 1995.
