Winter Tandem Flight

Winter Tandem Flight

ウィンタータンデムフライト-1

What is a Tandem Flight?

Two-seater paragliding experience
Safe for beginners (piloted by a professional)
If you can run, you can fly!
No age limit / Weight limit: 25kg – 85kg

We take off from the takeoff site (altitude 1,200m) located within the Hakuba Happo-one Ski Resort and land at the landing field (altitude 750m) right next to the Hakuba Ski Jumping Stadium.

Enjoy an 10-minute long flight with an elevation difference of 450m.

A professional pilot handles all the controls, so anyone who can run for about 20 meters is welcome to participate.

Your hands will be free during the flight! Feel free to take photos and videos with your own camera or smartphone (please ensure you have a strap to prevent dropping).

Enjoy Winter Flights in Hakuba

Hakuba Happo-one is one of Japan’s premier ski resorts. Of course, hitting the slopes is incredible, but skiing isn’t the only way to have fun!

“Have the Hakuba sky all to yourself!!”

Gentle Airflow

Unlike summer, the air in winter is extremely stable. With minimal turbulence, even first-timers can relax and fully enjoy the spectacular views.

  • Stable flights with minimal shaking
  • Perfect for photography (less risk of motion sickness)

Crisp Air, Clear Views

Why is winter so beautiful?

It’s because the air is clearer than in any other season, allowing you to see further into the distance than at any other time of year.

Gazing down at the snow-covered Northern Alps and the town of Hakuba from a bird’s-eye view is an experience so moving, words simply cannot describe it.
