First Time Paragliding in Kamshet: Complete Beginner's Guide (2026)

What is a Tandem Paragliding Joyride?

Tandem paragliding is the easiest, most accessible way to experience human flight. You do not need any previous flying experience, certification, or special fitness level. As a passenger, you are securely strapped into a comfortable seated harness right in front of a licensed APPI/FAI Master Pilot who handles 100% of the flight operations—from inflation and takeoff to mid-air navigation and gentle touchdown.

Weight & Age Eligibility Criteria

Passenger safety is paramount. Here are the standard guidelines for flying in Kamshet:

• Weight Range: Between 30 kg and 95 kg. This ensures the glider operates within its certified weight envelope for optimal glide ratio and landing control.
• Age Limit: 6 years to 65+ years. Children under 18 require parental consent.
• Fitness: You should be able to jog 5 to 10 paces during takeoff down the gentle grassy slope.

What Should You Wear?

Kamshet's hills can be breezy and sunny. We recommend:

• Sturdy sports shoes or sneakers with good ankle support and grip (strictly no sandals, slippers, or high heels).
• Comfortable jeans, track pants, and a light windcheater jacket.
• Sunglasses to protect your eyes from the bright sky and wind.

How Safe is Paragliding in Kamshet?

With Blue Sky Paragliding, safety is non-negotiable. We operate solely with EN/LTF certified European tandem gliders, high-impact airbag harnesses, and independently deployable reserve parachutes. Flights take place only when wind speeds and thermals are strictly within safe operational limits (12 to 22 km/h).
