A few things to keep in mind when you book your paragliding flight over Las Palmas de Gran Canaria are: Paragliding is a completely weather-dependent activity, which means that your flight might be rescheduled to avoid dangerous or windless conditions. Additionally, you must weigh over 35, but under 100kg to be able to participate in the flight. If you want to participate as a minor, you will need to have written authorization from your parents or guardians, and if you are over 80 years old, you won't be able to participate. Finally, if you want to bring someone who will not fly with you to the paragliding flight location, you can, but they will not be able to come with you to the take-off area.

Now, if you want to live an extraordinary experience in Gran Canaria, don't hesitate to book this paragliding flight from Las Palmas. It's an adventure you won't forget!
